Aikido
is a Japanese martial art philosophically based in
self defense which has no emphasis on striking or
kicking. It organizes movement logically and
without force; and the distinctive feature of
Aikido is that it works in harmony with the
movements of nature.
Because Aikido emphasizes agility and precision before strength and force, it is considered an ideal activity for the young. It isn't necessary for you to be tall or strong. It's more important to move swiftly and gracefully. Aikido has been called the most gentle of the martial arts because it is non combative.
Learning Aikido skills helps with timing, balance and body control. Certain exercises learned in Aikido have been shown to promote general health and improve certain types of physical ailments.
This is why many people often refer to Aikido as the 'ultimate martial art'.
