Aikido

Aikido is a dynamic modern Japanese martial art, created in the 20th century and based on centuries of martial training. Aikido founder, Morihei Ueshiba, formulated a martial way that merges effective techniques with a mind set on Peace. The power of an attack is controlled and redirected not confronted, allowing a suitable technique to be applied. The intent is not to destroy an attacker but rather to extinguish the violence.
