This is a short documentary of Morihei Ueshiba, the founder of Aikido when he was 78 years old in 1961. The documentary was by Japan News and we get to see video and O'Sensei speaking.

This little man is the reason I started studying Aikido in 1990. I had two VHS Cassettes of his earlier teaching. Loan them to a friend. Never to be seen again. Just love this man. He became my 4th mentor. Jesus,Jimi Hendrix,Bruce Lee. And O’Sensei. Oss.

I just love the footwork of 31 Jo Kata. I’ve been working on doing it on my left side. As to the right side. Very different after you been doing it on the right for so long. As in Shotokan. What you do n the right. You do on the left. No favoritism to the body,mind and spirit.

It also takes even less time than that to realise that if you rely on aikido to defend yourself in a fight,you'll get the wind kicked out of you.

Cult-like behaviour from Ueshiba's students. 4 guys holding a bokken at the same time and a 78 year old man throws all 4 of them at the same time with ease? I don't think so. I love watching aikido for it's flowing beauty,but please,give me a break.

I totally agree with you. Practicing Aikido since 1973..., i came early to the conclusion: Aikido is NOT for fighting, just a fine art of motion, beauty, softness, health, breath, and it is really enjoyable to practice it in this state of mind. The rest, all the rest is to put in the trash box. Aikido is NOT for fighting! The dilemma is: we, human beings, always consider the person we have in front of us is an 'opponent'. In Aikido i learned: he is not an opponent, but a PARTNER. So 'life is a struggle" is a mistake: life is (or should be) a partnership, and this starts on the mat: exchanging nice situations (so called 'attack' which is not an attack at all but the 'start' of a meeting with the Partner) one after the other, and growing together: no winner, no looser. If we consider it like this, Aikido can be a wonderful Art. But only... let us say hardly 5% of the trainees (including the masters or so called so) can understand this. Best regards from France, Pascal.

Aikido can be used for those who can't stretch that far and for those who are short. MMA are for harda$$es. I never witnessed any mixed martial artist save anyone in real time. Seems like it belongs in the thunderdome where it belongs. Aikido is only for self-defense. You know, "just in case" something happens. If it does, it's over within seconds and there's no reason to beat someone to a pulp. Your reasoning against Aikido is now debunked.
