John's Thoughts on Aikido

Aikido

AI - Means harmony to harmonize with your attacker he or she has to move forward into the attack. As they move you move keeping your centre at all times, then your movement becomes their movement and their movement becomes your movement.

KI - Means energy not what muscle you may or may not have but positive energy. Keeping your arms forward as with a bokken in your centre never pulling your arms back.

DO - Means way of putting it all together.


Anyone else brave enough to give this a try?
