WELCOME TO OUR AIKI COMMUNITY

Aikido is a modern Japanese self-defense martial art that teaches you how to control a situation by harmonizing yourself with an attacker’s movement and mind. The self-defensive techniques of aikido are made effective by allowing attacks to continue on their intended path of action. By conjoining one’s power with the power of those attacks, an aikido practitioner thereby becomes the controlling force for both powers. Developed by Morihei Ueshiba, aikido uses the dynamic forces of geometry, biomechanics, and mental and spiritual cultivation to create a truly unique examination of confrontations of all kind.
