Aikido - what is it?
Aikido meaning Way (do) of Harmony (ai) with Spirit (ki) is a powerful and dynamic martial art that focuses on the redirection and control of an opponent’s momentum.
The great attraction of Aikido is that the techniques practised, require very little strength to make them
effective and therefore can be practised by anyone whatever your size and build.

Yoshinkan Aikido - taking aikido to the next level.
The Yoshinkan 'House for Cultivating the Spirit' was founded after World
War Two. This style of aikido is occasionally called the hard style
because the training methods are a product of the gruelling period Soke
Shioda spent as a student of Ueshiba.
Yoshinkan Aikido has some 150 basic techniques which are practiced
repeatedly; these enable the student to master the remaining ones,
which total some 3000 overall.
The Yoshinkan style of Aikido emphasises the self-defence aspect of the
art. It is more practical and gruelling than the other styles of Aikido and
to an outsider may appear part of a violent Japanese tradition. |
Yoshinkan Aikido is not a sport. Aikido is the development and strengthening of the body and mind, and
the practical side of Aikido must never be forgotten. However, Aikido is for all, irrespective of age, sex,
race or culture.
