Aikido
Aikido
‘Aikido is a Japanese martial art that implements redirection of force, non-resistance, and harmony. There are throws similar to Judo and joint-locks similar to BJJ, but unlike those martial arts, aikido emphasizes a non-aggressive approach.’[1]
Aikido and children
‘If you have a non-competitive child or even a child who’s overly competitive, the calmer nature of aikido may be a good choice.’[2]
