Aikido has its roots in ancient Japanese sword, staff and open handed combat techniques. During the first half of the twentieth century a martial artist of rare ability Sensei Morihei Ueshiba synthesised these techniques into Aikido. Morihei Ueshiba built in a vital element which distinguishes Aikido from other martial arts: a non violent code of ethics. If the attacker doesn't strike Aikido techniques cannot be made.
Aikido is the way of defending physical, mental and emotional attacks from a centered state of harmony within yourself; The martial art for the peace loving. Aikido is a breakthrough for those unhappy with aggressive competitive confrontational martial arts. It has no sex weight or age divisions. If you have to defend your life such concepts are useless. Aikido trains the mind through the body; After much training your habitual pattern of struggle will be replaced with a resourcefulness which will shows you choices in any situation. |
