Background on Aikido:
Aikido (way of spiritual harmony) is a modern martial art founded by Morihei Ueshiba in 1942. From his studies of Daito-Ryu Jujitsu and other sword and spear arts, he created an art consisting of throws and pins in order to deal with physical violence as peacefully and as effectively as possible.
Because of its martial roots, Aikido could be dangerous if practiced without care and concern for safety. It is for this reason, plus his spiritual convictions, that Ueshiba forbade the practice of sparring in his art. Aikido is practiced in a spirit of cooperation in order to provide mental and physical growth among its practitioners.
It is said that Aikido develops strength, but does not depend on strength and develops speed, but does not depend on speed. Aikido No Kokoro (the heart of Aikido) is an independent approach to the study of Aikido that emphasizes the development of the coordination of mind and body.
