Yoshinkan Aikido
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.
