Aikido is
a highly refined martial art, developed this
Century as a means of self-defense and spiritual
training. The art of Aikido develops coordination of
mind and body through its philosophy,
techniques, other people and ourselves.
Unlike many martial arts, Aikido requires no
particular advantage in strength or speed, and is
practiced successfully by people of all ages and abilities
.Aikido
practice develops flexibility, coordination,
concentration, improved health and fitness, effective
communication skills and self esteem.
The
physical aspects of Aikido, as graceful and
dynamic as they can be, are only the outward
manifestation of what is most importantly a real
and direct way to improve the quality of our lives.
