Aikido is a modern Japanese martial art that is split into many different styles, including Iwama Ryu, Iwama Shin Shin Aiki Shuren Kai, Shodokan Aikido, Yoshinkan, Renshinkai, Aikikai and Ki Aikido. Aikido is now practiced in around 140 countries.
Aikido training incorporates the use of two primary weapons: bokken (wood training sword) and jo (staff, about four feet long). A third weapon, tanto (dagger), is used primarily for learning to defend against knife attacks.
Aikido is a Japanese Martial Art created during the 1920s by Morihei Ueshiba (1883~1969), an
expert who reached the highest level of mastery in the classical Japanese Martial Arts. Aikido is performed
by blending with the motion of the attacker and redirecting the force of the attack rather than opposing it
head-on.
