If you practiced some kind of martial arts, mention it's philosophy in a simple
way. How does it affect yourself, your way of thinking, and others surround you? |

Aikido is a Japanese martial art. The word itself means "the way (do) of harmony
(ai) and energy (ki)." Primarily a defensive martial art utilizing wrist, joint,
and elbow grips to immobilize or throw one's opponent, and utilizes some limited
offensive tactics occasionally.
I began to learn it after watching All Japan demonstration, then I get myself
into the Dojo to learn techniques, I learn it to be more comfortable in dealing
with people - I started realizing that body language in conversations became
better  - and of
course to be ready in unusual situations.  "As long
as I can" 
In Aikido, you:
1) Avoid the attack
2) control the situation
3) choose an option
Aikido relies on using your opponent's own movement, energy, and momentum
against him/her in an effort to neutralize the attack then to control the
situation.
Aikido involves manipulation of the joints "specifically the wrist, elbow, and
shoulder", throws, and some limited striking.
Aikido is not about "winning" or finishing your opponent off, but rather about
being able to disengage from a chaotic and violent situation as quickly and
safely as possible - specially in multiple attack - to not getting creamed on
the ground
Aikido differs from other martial arts through its tactics of avoidance rather
than direct opposition "such as in Karate" or joining in the attack "such as in
Judo". ppl who practice Aikido do not oppose their opponents' movements or
strength in an effort to impose some arbitrary technique or use pain compliance
to achieve our goals; rather, we seek basicly to avoid attacks, if we cannot, we
seek to blend with and use our opponent's own motion, strength, expectations and
inertia against him. |
