About the Business
Aikido has principles no different to those of judo and it has also absorbed concepts from swordsmanship. These are entwined throughout the techniques and practice system of aikido making it interesting and absorbing to learn. The competitive aikido practice system is well structured for easy comprehension and quick learning. Basic practices utilising judo and kendo principles develop in stages through to final techniques. The context of each stage of practice relative to the underlying basics and the subsequent step are clear and logical. So, aikido is not only physically demanding but it is also an intellectual challenge.
As in other martial arts practice is through drills and techniques usually with another person who is not resisting or resisting in a controlled way to assist in learning and understanding. Prearranged groups of techniques and the drills derived from them to develop skill and ability are the core of aikido.
