Aikido is a Japanese art of self defense. It employs locks and throws to redirect an attacker rather than resisting with force. These principles allow Aikido practitioners to control larger, stronger opponents and defend against multiple attackers. Aikido movements are typically flowing and circular. They utilize motion and not strength to off balance and control an opponent. Aikido is unique because it provides an effective form of self defense that does not seek to injure others. This is why Aikido is often called the ôWay of Peaceö.
