Aikido is a martial art rooted in a principle of unity. It's a complete path of personal development, and an embodied practice for working with ever-changing conditions, conflict, and stress. Aikido affirms life, and helps us cultivate more power, wisdom, and grace. It means, “The way of unifying with life energy."
