How to put on and tie a Hakama (Aikido) - 3 ways, very detailed (w/ subtitles)

Here's the direct links to each method:
First method (front folded into the belt): 0:33
Second method (more traditional): 3:24
Third method (front strap over the koshiita): 5:40

In our first "How To" video, we will explain 3 different ways of putting on and tying a Hakama for Aikido.
Those 3 methods could also be applied in some ways to Iaido, Kendo and of course, any Jujutsu-like art that uses a classic Judo type black belt.
Those methods are, however, not suitable for wearing a Hakama at a formal occasion.

The first method presented is the one used by Seido's founder Jordy. With this method, the Hakama should stay in place. The second method, is the most common in Aikido. The third one is very less common but is very likely the best method, if your Hakama doesn't stay in place during practice when using the other two methods.

There is no "best", "official" or "standard" method in Aikido (unless your group/dojo has its own rule of course), so we are just presenting those methods as tips to help you find a way to tie your Hakama.
If your teacher recommends another technique or if you have your own (better) idea how to do it, don't hesitate to leave a comment and give us some insights !
