What Is Aikido?

Ueshiba Morihei, the founder of Aikido, 1883-1969, explained Aikido as follows:

Aikido techniques are developed to use the whole force of attackers. This means that the stronger an attacker’s force, the easier we can handle the attacker.There is no offensive technique in Aikido because to attack means to be defeated in spirit. Aikido is based on the principle of ultimate nonresistance so that any attacker will feel no force from a person who has mastered Aikido. There are no enemies in Aikido; even if there is an opponent, a person who practices Aikido should freely handle the opponent as a part of his/her own body.
