Aikido is a Japanese martial art defined in the 20th century by "O' Sensei", Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969). “Aiki” means “blending body with mind to the movements of energy.” “Do” means “a way or path chosen towards self-realization.” Aikido is a system of self-defense employing techniques based upon circular motions that blend with the attack and energy of your opponent.
Here are some examples of our aikido style [Birankai].

This site allows you to move forward and backward through video clips of aikido techniques and [hopefully] get a better understanding of the progression of movement.
