Aikido
Aikido is a Japanese martial art that focuses on ethical conflict resolution. By blending with the attacker’s energy (physical or otherwise) and leading it towards de-escalation a less “powerful” person can remain safe. The training is cooperative and joyous and suitable for all ages and physical abilities. In the words of the Founder Morihei Ueshiba, “You are here to realize your inner divinity and manifest your innate enlightenment. Foster peace in your own life and then apply the Art to all that you encounter.”
