@@terrycase7341 unfortunately it’s close to impossible to grab a boxers hand to perform a move that would brake or dislocate a bone. The other thing is that they throw a rain of fast and strong punches and it takes just a few seconds to frustrate a practitioner and lead him to a mistake that will cause an opening window for targeting. I mean no disrespect to traditional martial arts and as a former practitioner (7 years) i can say with confidence that unless one simulates his knowledge to modern reality and combines different moves and tactics from several martial arts, he will be stacked in a dreamy world where he sees him self as a superhero and will land brutally on his face. Muay thai in a combination with judo and bjj is a good way to go.

Then why did Tyson visit (on many occasions) Aikido dojos in Japan? Watch Mike Tyson fight especially his footwork. Power does not come the shoulder it's Aikido footwork and positioning. He was also always interested in other martial arts including Jeet kune do as well as Aikido to learn how to find the most effective way to harness his core strength, that is why he has a devastating punch. Any fight training, boxing and/or martial arts doesn't give you a plan, it gives you the power and ability to be flexible in a fight situation and to be able to deal with any situation. This comes from someone who has been training for over 25 years.

One thing to note.. a big part of aikido is learning how to fall and not get injured.. hence why alot of these throws seem exaggerated.. its because the opponent is displacing energy as effectively as possible to avoid injury.. a normal person would just fold if these moves were applied to them.. aikido teaches you to roll away and recover quickly

Aikido teaches you to use the attacker strength against the attacker, and use pain to over power the stronger person, it was the way women defended them selves from men that could over power them physically; but know the weakness of the body and joint locks the woman to use their power of the attacker against them in surprise counter attack and movements !

I have much respect for Aikido, being a practitioner myself, the downside to Aikido is that it takes a long time to be proficient enough at it to use in an urban combatives environment / street fight, some of the techniques are outdated, sword defense and knife defense, gun defense, nobody takes knife defense training as seriously as they should , the best knife defense training I have seen, an instructor was teaching outdoors, the class was conducting knife defense and knife take away drills, no one was taking the training knife seriously, the instructor then had the class stop, he found on the ground a twig a branch and stuck into and rubbed on it some fresh dog poo, then used it to attack the assistant instructor student, a completely different reaction to the poo stick, that is how the knife should be treated, well thanks for giving Aikido the proper respect as being defensive martial art it certainly does have many positive attributes, bearing in mind that it is not meant to be used in the ring, you should always be situationally aware of your surroundings, God Bless All heart ❤️

@@sigilofgremory9671 Ypu better have a good ground first before giving a serious statement. It better be a scientific & objective one. Not just relying on how something seems. Judo is a combat sport, created so Japan can have a sport with martial spirit and can enter the Olympic. Judo was developed from Jiu Jutsu. But again, since it was developed as the sport version of its parent branch, it is a watered down version. Many original Jiu Jutsu techniques / waza are omitted or forbidden in Judo. Just like Tae Kwon Do and the real Korean martial systems it stemmed from such as Subak, Hawarang Do, etc. Aikido was developed from Ai Ki Jiu Jutsu. The form of Jiu Jutsu which employ the manipulation of natural living energy ( hence George Lucas created "the force" in his Star Wars). So both aikido and judo came from the same root, but aikido was never developed as sport from the very beginning. It is actually meant as an improvement over Aiki Jiu Jutsu, yet still as a combat system. I have practised aikido for several years and used it on several real laife encounters. My mother was a judo practitioner. So i experience it that no, judo is not more practical than aikido. For example judo doens't prepare its practitioner to fight against harm intentioned weapon wielding opponent(s), nor multiple opponents, not to mention the combination of them. Aikido does. So, it is not just based on "what it seems". So excuse me, what is the round to your statement?

In the British Army we were trained in Aikido as a method of defence and arrest/restraint techniques. It is very effective and allows for other moves to be integrated into it for example kicks, strikes and throws.

There are small groups that take Aikido to the next level, called Combat Aikido. Usually only taught to advanced practitioners. They have restudied the basis of the system and reversed its mantra from a defensive technique, and where applicable use extra brutal force in the throws, locks, and striking. They have also utilized other martial arts to add to their techniques. The obvious difference is the extreme speed and use of their own weight and force against adversaries. The less noticeable is the inclusion of forward motion as apposed to waiting and anticipating your opponents attack, and use of certain debilitating techniques that are usually out of bounds.

I have to add that being trained in a primarily defensive art does not limit the practitioner from striking to injure.

It's not just the breathing control, it's stamina and extreme focus.

@Ganesh Green did you hurt your neck doing Judo?

A couple of key points that (as far as I could tell) that I would emphasize: *) Aikido can hurt and kill. Specifically: (1) joint locks can be tightened to tear or break, (2) chokes (against a single attacker) can be applied not only to put the opponent out, but also to kill him, and (3) throws will drive an untrained person head first or will do other injury. (Notice that among the first things a new aikidoka must learn is _ukemi_--the art of safe falling and rolling--and every class begins by practicing these.) *) Aikido relies, not on physical strength or mass, but on the collective mechanics of the engaged belligerents, who are treated as a single mechanical system. Yes, with forces, angular momenta, and inertia. This makes the aikidoka as independent of his/her physique as possible. Some techniques (e.g., sankyo) work even better if the opponent is bigger: his wrists are then easier to lock.:)

I had formal training in Karate, French Foil, and several other disciplines before I studied Aikido. I agree with some of the previous posters that Pure Aikido lacks practicality in the teaching. However, every student brings their Ken to the Do. And from this I agree with those who say that Aikido is a Master class. If you have a discipline, Aikido can help you take it to a new level. Because Knowing how to anticipate an opponent is what is really taught. The locks and throws are a vehicle to the understanding. What you really learn is how to anticipate... and deploy proper action, in every situation. It is attention that is key... and it is the specific exercises that teach this. Did you get to the blind navigation drills?

It's essential to engage your opponent before the attack fully develops, don't anticipate, but react in a decisive and fluid manner that puts your opponent in a weaker, off balanced position.

Aikido is specifically designed to control any situation. It is not necessarily designed to not hurt an opponent but rather give you that option to determine whether or not to hurt them. A skilled artist has the ability to show their opponent just how easy they can take them out without getting hurt themselves. The opponent can quickly see how easily they were taken out and know not to mess further with the defendant or it could be worse. Defensive arts don't mean you're necessarily following a set of rules. They just give you that option to avoid injury without hurting an attacker but once you submit an attacker they're at you're mercy for whatever you decide to do at that point.

Exactly, martial arts in general uses techniques that are meant to capitalize on the weaknesses of an opponent, thus giving the fighter an upper hand. If you want a 100% fair fight take turns punching each other in the face or something 🤷🏻

Two things about Aikido. 1) Speaking as some one who studied Aiki for many years, almost every one of my instructors already had many years and usually more than one black belt in other more practical martial disciplines. 2) Aikido is a great martial art, however if you go into it with out any other prior training in some other practical combat art, either grappling or pugilistic, you could get your ass kicked. Aikido is sort of like an advanced degree in theoretical physics, it's some crazy powerful stuff, but it's on a level of abstraction that most fighters won't get. If you are curios about its usefulness though just watch any of the John Wick movies, The choreography there does some beautiful integration of Aiki into combat techniques.

Well I managed to not get destroyed many times. I guess I like what you call "useless".

it is amazing how effective some martial arts can be. Especially, when they are choreographed with a willing partner...

There was a video that I bought about street fighting back in the 80's and it was focused on HOW the body reacts AUTONOMICALLY to certain punches, kicks, putting someone off balance, etc and how to follow up. It was really interesting. I specifically remember instead of just blocking defensively by putting an arm up to block a strike, that your "block" would actually be a form of leaning in and intentionally striking/blocking BACK with such offensive force that it put the offender in a preferred position for further offensive maneuvers in your favor including fight-ending shots to the throat or the side of jaw in order to displace it. The other thing I remember was to never throw a kick above the belt because it was high risk, but to use them to strike knees to try to dislocate them or get them off balance.

As someone who practiced Aikido for 2 years (though it was a long time ago), I think people have a very twisted view of Aikido. First of all, Aikido requires that the attacker (Uke) attacks with full force, since the idea of Aikido is to use the enemy's force against them. You're not gonna be able to do that in a ring for example, cause in that situation, the opponent is expecting you to do something. Aikido is better suited for situations where someone tries to get a jump on you first, like in the beginning of a fight. Second, these techniques are brutal, which makes them pretty hard to practice. I mean, we're talking about broken bones as a result of many of these moves. Who is gonna be willing to have their arm torn in order for someone to practice those moves? That's why when you see people practicing Aikido, the Uke seems "non-resistant". This is to protect the person who is practicing with you. But were these moves to be applied in full force, without caring for Uke's well-being, the fight would end in seconds, cause it would result in some fucked up injury. Again, Aikido is not uited for the ring. There are other techniques for that. That is why a true martial artist will practice many different styles during his life.

Not all aikido dojo's are about self defense. My instructor of 4 years called it self attack with a grin on his face. He was one of Tamura's favorite uke. He was a 3rd degree Aikido Black belt and a 2nd degree black belt in shotokan karate. I my self started with 4 years of judo before almost 8 years of Aikido. I then went on to do a year of karate, and a year of Tae Kwon Do & Hapkido. A punch in the back of the neck was one of my favorite technique that I practiced (the opportunity of). My Tae Kwon Do sparing partners complained about it, although I only tapped. Reminding me "it was not allowed in competition". Never had to kill anyone, so, it stayed one potential deadly blow.

I think importantly, aikido also teaches situational awareness and attack evasion through extensive foot movement training. I experienced the effectiveness of evasion in an actual multiple attacker situation prior to my aikido aikido and I realized the benefits of being able to slip and move out of range of the punches. Once free, there was time to think on how to respond, and where. The finish is the easy part.

Everytime I see a video like this I have to admonish the viewers: it's not the martial art, it's the martial artist that makes the difference.

Those flashy moves is just a means to out balance the opponent. A simple concept of aikido is flow, which is used in other martial arts. When opponent punches you, you pull them to the ground using their force and weight, twist their elbow and apply force to submit the opponent. You see that martial art as harmless because the practitioner stops at that point. But since we're talking about street fighting which have no rules, let's continue. The attacker is now at the ground and you have control of their elbows twisted. You apply force to dislocate and break the elbows. The attacker most likely will react in pain and hold his elbow. That's natural instinct. As he grabs his elbow, you pull on it, and twist it, keep it between your legs as one of your legs placed on top of the attacker's head. You pull on the other elbow and break it. Now, the attacker has two broken elbows. Again, this is street fighting so we proceed. You then twist the broken elbow so the attacker would be in pain and we can control hismovement. You sit your attacker, place your arms around him in a chokehold. Again, this is street fighting, right? No rules, like the video. You then use your strength to either choke the attacker or just apply force to the right to twist his head and kill him. Now, does aikido sound like a harmless martial art? Also, Jujitsu which is one of the most dangerous martial art is the basis for both judo and aikido which both has the same concept. The reason why the martial art is "harmless" is because they INTENTIONALLY stop before they break other's joints. I apologize. I watched two videos like this and it irks me how they see these as "harmless" and "useless". The idea of both judo and aikido is to control the opponent. The flashy moves are just means like that. It's like when you try to punch, you swerve like a boxer before throwing the punch. That swerving is those flashy moves you see in aikido and the punch itself, is the throwing off balance part.

The best thing I learned in my relatively brief time practicing Aikido was how to carry myself, how to pay attention, how to diffuse situations before they came to blows. I have lived through some dangerous situations without ever having to inflict physical harm.

To me Aikido has practical skills. I trained with karate and it complements each other quite well. Karate give you the striking power and conditioning and Aikido give you the soft fluid motion and tactile senses. I have been in a few physical encounters and for these time the Aiki techniques came out more as I took their balance and pinned them rather than punching and kicking. Once someone's balance is lost it's actually very easy to control them. Attacking balance is a major principle of aikido. Against the average person it can have its practical application but as mentioned this depends on the individuals ability and fitness. MMA fighters are hardened trained warriors as are any competitive fighter. Put an average hobby practitioner of any martial art again that level and it won't end well. Aikido is a great way to be fit and healthy and understand harmony with each other and all things. It is very much a philosophy to live by rather than a viscious way to beat the shit out of people. It is very misunderstood even by many Aikidokas. I would not say it's a self defence martial art, I would say it's a self development martial art. I to this day place a lot of value in Karate. If you train hard it is a very good art if you want to fight so long as you put the work in. MMA takes what works out all all styles for competition fighting and refines these and trains the body. Even the best fighters get smacked about so being able to take a beating is as important as dishing it out. If you don't like or scared of being hit, you are not a fighter and would probably be useless in a fight no matter what you train in!

@@2009deegan yeah you are correct in theory but Ueshiba wasn't in the age of the samurai where that level of combat was common. Jujitsu was basically what was taught as a combat system to samurai but later came the aiki philosophy and practice. This lead to daito ryu aikijujitsu and hapkido as practical applications of aiki whereas Ueshiba was more of a spiritual pathway and the drawing of the sword is a huge aspect of Aikido for many reasons. Many attacks do mimic a sword for e.g with the open hand chopping downward. Exploiting such liner attacks and weak balance points of opponents is quite satisfying, but it's not very dynamic. This is one reason people knock Aikido for its practical application because traditionally the attacks are not 'realistic' to train for real situations. When researching aikido, what people mainly see is all the basic forms and techniques on video clips, but there's so much more going on than just doing the moves, and it is hard to understand by watching. I don't mean there is a secret that makes Aikido super effective that non practitioners can't understand...just that aikido has a lot of depth to the art form which goes beyond someone trying to hit you and then perform some kind of technique. This is why I enjoy Aikido practice (or used to) was to learn more about myself than how to defend against attackers. Though if someone comes at be with a chop to the head.... better watch out!

@SupremeEgyptianGodsMan No martial art will make you unbeatable or superhuman, where did you hear that? I practiced hapkido for over 15 years, so I can verify there is a lot of aikido and judo in it. It is also similar to jujitsu with certain techniques. How long did you train and what were the techniques like? I'm assuming you did kicking and punching drills. Was there any sparring? did you learn techniques to defend against punches, kicks and grabs? What were the movements like? Straight in, circular, etc? Did your sensei teach you to use your opponents strength against them? it's a very defensive art and takes a lot of practice to get the timing right. What do you mean, it failed and didn't work for you? It sounds like you took it for a few weeks and picked a fight with somebody, I hope I'm wrong in assuming that.

One thing that isn't mentioned here is that Aikido is, even more like most other material arts, about balance. It counts heavy on the disbalance, or bring in disbalance, of the other.

Aikido works great when your opponent is letting you do everything 😂. It can also apparently defy the laws of physics.

Google up the nearest Aikido dojo to you right now and go there and tell the head instructor you think Aikido is fake. Let him educate you. If you're sure it's fake, what do you have to fear?

Failed to mention that, whilst unarmed, a huge part of Aikido, is, along with Judo, throwing techniques. This alone makes it very dangerous. Seems rarely emphasised, but, a throw which is no problem in the dojo, with a training partner of comparable levels of ability, is utterly different from a throw against a stranger, who may or may not know how to fall. If one intends practising any throwing style, one MUST give time to the WHENS. Many, otherwise upstanding citizens, have ended up serving time for manslaughter, or even murder, not because of what they did, rather, what they Said, in the immediate aftermath. In the UK, one should remember to use, 'It was my honest belief...that my life was in immediate danger'; then again, even if one intends to 'just' punch an attacker, one must know that, if it's a corker of a perfect punch which knocks the attacker out cold, said attacker may crack their skull on the pavement, when they fall. Basically, be sure, not only of what your doing, by also WHY & WHEN.

The person who invented the art of aikido wrote books. One of them describes a situation where a student was using his lessons in class to bully unsuspecting people on the streets at night... So the teacher disguised himself as an old man and found where his student was waiting for his next victim to come along... The teacher hid his hands in the folds of his sleeves because his fingers were covered in black grease.... When he passed by the bullying student jumped out, grabbed and threw the old man head over heals. The old man let himself be thrown but while being thrown he touched his student in four different key places. Then he sprang to his feet, turned and pointed at the student's shirt to let him know that while being thrown once he could have killed him four different ways. He claims the student never bullied people again. My point is that aikido DOES have some deadly strikes but it's usually taught as a sort of religion and only the most high level and disciplined students are ever taught those techniques. They're also not techniques that can be used in tournaments and competition. Even if the competition was a fight to the death, it would usually be against the aikido master's religion to enter into such a competition.

With this said, I took 3rd place in the USA high school wrestling tournament for central Florida league in the 145 lb weight division and I definitely used pressure points I learned in aikido with almost every move. People watching would never see what I was doing when I took my opponent down and often it was my opponent taking me down but either way they'd soon regret making contact with me at all because everywhere I grabbed or touched them was sending shocks of shooting pain up their limbs and body parts. When I took someone down to the mat I wasn't just slamming them onto their back. When I landed on top the big knuckle in my fist was between us and pointed directly into their sternum with all of my body weight on top of it so all they could think about was how much it hurt trying to breathe for the next minute... Aikido definitely is effective in street combat especially if you're not trying to kill someone.

I have used Aikido on the job as a Law enforcement officer many times it works

Aikido was developed by O’Sensei Morihei Ueshiba as an offshoot of form of deadly AikiJutsu! Urshiba fought in the Sino-Japanese war under a deadly AikiJutsu master. Tired of the killing and maiming of the battles he came home to Japan. In order to separate himself from his leader he (as is tradition) developed Aikido! Despite popular misunderstandings, Aikido uses the same techniques as AikiJutsu with the only difference being the intent of outcome. AikiJutsu is intended to destroy an opponent by killing or maiming him. Aikido uses the techniques to cause only enough transient pain to convince the opponent to surrender or quit. If the situation were to turn deadly the Aikido can be changed to the deadlier form! Nevertheless, as a Practicioner of Aikido who has been in a serious street fight I can tell you that it works and allows for some added “Atemi” which are strikes that can make the total defense quite offensive! Kicks and punches added to the avoidance techniques can round out your Aikido techniques! (No pun intended!) The most fun and quite effective technique can include the “Aikido Pinch”. If ever in close combat and you find yourself in a headlock using this pinch will make your opponent think he’s been shot or stabbed! It’s hurts like hell!! See if you can find it on KZread or elsewhere! Koichi Tohei Sensei was a tenth degree black belt. An honor bestowed on him by O’Sensei himself. See if you can find him on KZread practicing the pinch during a multi opponent attack demo.

Good post. Long time multi- discipline martial artist with an aikido core. Note that some BJJ guru said on YT that every ten years and/or 20 lbs your opponent has on you in BJJ requires an additional belt level to stay even. I have a few things for the ground but mostly I use a combination of footwork & atemi to avoid going to the ground. And if someone tried to take me down I would do all I could to take them out before they could. A few wrestlers have tried it but only one ever got me down and that was when I only had a year of boxing and a couple of Japanese karate. This art still can protect me as I age. BJJ not so much.

I practised Aikido for a number of years. In a street fight if a person is lucky Aikido might help, but most of the time it will fail miserably if you are not being attacked with a standard Aikido attack (as that is all you train for). It's a surprisingly good form of exercise but I wouldn't recommend it at all for self defence. Learn how to control your space (don't let him get too close) and learn to hit really hard instead.

A trained boxer is unlikely to assault someone on the street. Training teaches discipline, humility, and respect. What kind of trained boxer would just attack someone on the street? Your argument isn't even logical. Moot point.

I have over the years (I'm 72) mixed my Kenpo Karate with my Aikido training with what the military taught me in the early 70s to result in the fact that I have never ended up on the ground in a street fight nor have I ever been blindsided in a bar fight. I have used knives, chairs, car hoods, and anything else that will give me the upper hand. In the end that is what it is all about. Never turn your back on an old guy

76 here on son’s account. Lots of cross training but my core philosophy and technical approach is aikido/aikijitsu. Never started stuff as an adult, never backed down. Many confrontations but only on the deck (briefly) when jumped by a BK street gang. Walked away on top. And had a knife pulled on me by an ex boy friend. Paced myself was wearing him down when a passing softball team made him drop the knife. I then finished the job so that it would be weeks before he was able to do anymore damage. Often use atemi just to create an opening, destroy balance or to telegraph a feigned defensive weakness on my part. And my friends and my son’s friends don’t call me Champ or Sarge, but after I stopped 3 attackers late one stormy night my friends there gave me the nickname Danger. That didn’t make me any tougher but since I was single at the time, it seems to have helped my social life. Calmness, confidence patience and a sound base of fundamentals definitely will give you an edge even when outnumbered as long as you can avoid going/staying down against multiple attackers.

Absolutely. Unfortunately most students don't get past the basic training and joint development to be able to speed up the attacks, without injuring their joints when breakfalling. Every technique can be broken down and with the momentum hugely effective.

Finally, a reliable film that gives a real answer at the end and not some bullshit saying that something will win because it will

Every martial art has it's advantages and diadvantages, but the effectiveness of the discipline you learned depends on how well you are trained, your physical condition, and your mindset. As for Aikido, from what I have seen in the movies and videos, I think this martial art would give someone a huge advantage in a street fight, esp knowing that most punks out there are going to try to attack someone for money, rape, or because they are delious from drugs or anger. In any case, that means they are emotionally unstable and not thinking straight. Whereas the disciplined martial artist will probably have a calm demeanor and the discipline to subdue their opponet fairly easily and watch them run back to the street shaddows. Of course, a gun can be a game changer too?

That’s exactly why you strike them first and/or during the execution of techniques. I mean really strike them in key places. Exact how is up for debate. I use elbows, hammer fists ,etc. Others say you can injure your attacker at all- that’s naive IMO. 😎

Aikido saved me from being mugged by 2 undesirables in NYC. I'm a 4th kyu in Aikido. So you understand: It takes 9 kyus (levels) to attain your first black belt. A 4th kyu is 4 levels away from black belt. I'm just a novice still. I'm from the Jersey shore about an hour from New York City. I had to meet somebody around 9:00 p.m. in Manhattan for drinks. Long story short, two adult males approached me as I was walking. They told me to give them my wallet and watch. The one had a knife and the other didn't have anything showing. If they had a firearm they probably would have showed that instead of the knife so I knew that they most likely didn't have a gun on them. It all happened so fast as if I've known Aikido my entire life. I grabbed the wrist of the one guy that was holding the knife and I performed an upward palm strike to that scumbag's chin knocking him back on the ground. He was talking as I did it and it seems he bit his tongue really bad because there was blood everywhere. And the other one I brought down really quick with a move to where later I found out I had dislocated his shoulder. The second scumbag ran away and while the first one was still on the ground. I got on top of him and put him in an arm lock to where I was in total control and could break his arm if I wanted. If he struggled it would only cause him immense pain so he just laid there as I had him in the lock. There were two people as witnesses and I asked them to call the police who came in like 3 minutes because they were actually right around the corner walking towards us. The reason why I fought instead of giving them my wallet and my watch is because even if I had given them what they wanted they still could have hurt me for thrills. There's a lot of sick/sadistic people out there who get enjoyment out of hurting others. I didn't even have to think about what to do it just happened so naturally and so quick. It's like my sensei was inside me and just took over. Now I'm not a fighter whatsoever and would rather walk or run away from people like this but they were blocking me and I had nowhere to go and I knew I had to strike first and as hard as I could to avoid injury or worse. It was a very scary situation that I was never in before but thank God I have been going to Aikido classes for the past 2 years to where I knew how to defend myself it seems more than the average person on the street.

Aikido is very effective martial art for self defense and street fighting, it teaches how to defend yourself against boxing punches, kicks, knife, bat/stick, sword. You can easily defend yourself against boxer, street fighter, school bully or armed criminal. You must do techniques quick

@@smithk1201 And not allowing someone to still a watch off your wrist isn't exactly self defense.

Aikido and Judo were both developed from Jujitsu. Aikido (Way of Energy Harmony) was designed, as stated in the video, to deflect and defend an attack without seriously harming the opponent. It personified Morihei Ueshiba's Zen philosophy. The means Aikido, as a form of self defense, often gives the opponent another chance to attack again. And the attacker isn't concerned with the same high morality. Judo (The Gentle Way) was developed by Jigoro Kano as a sport form of jujitsu. (This was before jujitsu competition as we know it today.) It was designed with competition in mind, which is why even though some atemi (strikes) are taught in Judo, they aren't used as such in competition. Judo can be successful in self-defense as a competent practitioner (judoka) has the ability to 'gently' slam the attacker into the pavement. (A Judo instructor of mine once said, "You karate guys hit people with hands, feet, knees and elbows. We judokas hit him with the earth!" Jujitsu combines all of it making it the better choice overall. But in reality, it's not the manner or style of fighting that prevails but the fighter who's best at using it.

When I see it in the octagon and UFC, I'll believe it.

Better than Brazilian Jujitsu. Not everybody is going to roll around on the ground like in a wrestling match waiting to get punched in the face. The objective of Aikido is to take down their attacker before they can do anything. I see it as discipline, speed, control, balance, weight and gravity.

I've actually used aikido in a couple of unarmed defenses against a knife attack and both times I disarmed my adversary and ended the fight without any further violence. It's very effective in a street fight however not so good in a tournament.

Haven‘t seen any Aikido techniques in MMA/UFC. That sums it up pretty well.

I think we will eventually have AI deliver a final answer on which martial art can win a majority of the time in no holds barred fighting. Programming an AI with all the speed an advanced practitioner can leverage for each art, and all possible moves their art trains them in, and able to move to use those with maximum speed again would allow the various moves to play out like a chess match when it can calculate speed, inertia, reaction time, etc. for every move and counter move. And you could run thousands of encounters to see which dominates over time. My suspicion is that Aikida has a shot, because in a world where attacker and defender are equally fast, the attacker puts themselves at risk when they extend the attacking limb, whether fist or foot. By definition this will either put them off balance, or offer an opportunity to grapple and pull them off balance due to the forward motion and extension of the attacking limb. A martial art like Aikido that focuses so much on center, and balance and countering moves would seem to offer an advantage. I guess I'm proposing that on a level playing field where the opponents are equally fast and maximally skilled in their art, a defender would have a built-in advantage.

It's not the art. It's the person who has mastered the art.

I find avoidance is best. When that is unavoidable, be first to use disabling strikes. Then leave quickly.

I have trained a few martial arts. Particularly BJJ, Judo, Muay Thai, Arnis (stick fighting), JKD, and some Silat. I trained in tandem with all of these, but judo, for about 4 years. My primary arts now are BJJ and Judo. I have an additional 2 years with these. The reason I chose these two arts is because of their ability to use literal / actual resistance of another person that has the same objective as you. Judo is to get a full throw, and BJJ to get a submission. I have been doing BJJ and Judo for the last few years. I really pay attention to the setups, and position of every technique. You really need to have a good understanding of simple tools, and some general idea of some physics. Judo and BJJ use pressure at very specific points of the body, fulcrum points, moment, and gravity (balance of an opponent). We use all this to exploit against a resisting opponent. I just don’t see this in the aikido exhibitions. I see a very willing and non resistant individuals jumping and running around. When a super fancy technique is preformed I see a person willing jump in the air and do a very pretty summer salt. I have never seen it utilized on a non willing individual intent on causing harm to the practitioner. So in my humble opinion if you want to actually learn how to fight take 6 months of kickboxing, learn 5 or so throws from the clenched position and learn them well, and get a good year of no gi BJJ. I think that would get most people 10x more ability than most people that would want to do you harm. Also carry a gun if you are legally allowed to and train with it regularly.

I practiced Aikido for 10 years. I used it in law enforcement to safely disarm and subdue aggressive individuals, without causing serious harm to them, or myself. However, if I encountered an experienced fighter who wanted to hurt me, Aikido was not enough. That is why I also practiced Krav Maga, as well as some MMA techniques. These three together, along with my acquired experience fighting, made me feel confident and effective at stopping individuals who were bigger, stronger, and experienced fighters, including those wielding deadly weapons. Multi-discipline training is key to being an effective fighter for most real-world situations, especially those you might not expect. I would add that without regular meditation you cannot master self-control. Self-control is also key, for you can know all the best techniques for self-defense, but if you have no self-control, you will lose against an opponent who does.

Does it work? Does any martial art work? If you truly know it, I would say so. But these days more and more states allow concealed carry. Don't worry about the true martial artists, they won't touch you for no reason.

In Aikido training we never use the full extent of a technique for obvious safety reasons. When applied in a real fight, it is very effective. But one of the most beautiful aspects is the deescalating factor, when you deflect an attack and push the person away without hurting the person, your attacker if they weren't too determined to begin with, may stop. That is the primary goal, to deescalate. When they keep attacking, then you go all in and it is effective. Another benefit of Aikido is that you use relatively little energy in comparison to most martial arts, you can control the distance and see your opponent wear themselves out without you having to use much aggression. Another thing, Aikido is probably one of the best martial arts to explain to a judge in court, try and explain using krav maga or (kick) boxing to a judge.

Well. I'm an Aikido Black belt, and I have train several years... Also train Kalah system. Aikido is great as discipline, and beautiful. But in real life... It's very different. They are any rules, always are weapons, everything is changing, and no one is alone or stay just waiting for your move. I highly recommend you to practice Aikido and use it wisely: avoid any fights, run if you can; but if they are no options, really friends, do not expect that your aggressor are going to be kind. Also prepare yourself to survive in real situations. Kalah system could be a better option. 😉

In any actual fight time is your enemy. Every second engaged is a moment that you could get injured in. Waiting for the next move lets your odds go down if you're not stalling for the cops or something. This is why Aikido has a little mentioned technique of "stepping in". Effectively goading your opponent into attacking by shortening, but not closing, the distance. Aikido is both fast and slow in it's use. The breath control initiates a type of meditation that extends your personal time view. You think faster, making your opponent seem slower. Lastly, there is the dirty throw that everyone avoids talking about. Remember that the first bad thing about a street fight is the street. A hard surface that one might use as a weapon. You can flip someone, or you can slam them. "There's no such thing as a fair fight. There are fair matches, with rules and a judge or referee. But if you're fighting? That's not fair." -Fedrick S.

The breath work that makes you think fast and feel like your going fast must be the loud ass MJ from the streets you’re inhaling 💀 as for the throws, don’t just fall bc they twisted your arm it literally doesn’t take that much resistance to fight an aikido throw all the throws shown have been people flowing with it jumping before they are thrown. It’s bs asf

@@offwhite5346 is off base.. oh look. a troll. Never smoked. Now, can you try to grasp the concept of a controlled rush? In training you don't do things that break your arm. But yes, it's another world to take someone's forearm that tries to resist and turn an elbow out of joint. Then have a body land on your toes. You have to commit to acting like you meant to do that.

If you've had extensive training then it's a great form of self defense especially if you're being attacked by multiple people 👍🥋😁 Steven Segal made Martial Art Famous 👍😎

Aikido or any martial art gives a huge advantage in any fight. Great video!

Aikido is a disadvantage against anyone. Worse than being untrained

The Japanese studied tai chi an used a Japanese style together to create aikido It's a very gentle internal art. Ching man ching was a known master of tai chi. Study history it's origins to know the roots of aikido.

What? Tai Chi and Aikido do not have a shared history. Where did you hear this?

Aikido may be good to disarm someone and throw them to the ground so that you have enough time to run away, not to actually fight

All martial arts are aikido-like. In the future, we will need more and more of this kind of spirit of softness instead of hardness. Then you will understand how great this spirit is!

Hope I can learn this, it seems fun

In all the comparisons I've seen with Aikido and real situations the practitioners never are warriors. I've mainly seen students and teachers who love Aikido but dont seem to train for practical use and only for its traditional value. I respect rhat but I feel all martial arts were intended to be used. I like the teachers who have turned into a combat art. People fight differently than they used to so I feel these arts should have some transformation. How do you think the founders would feel if they were alive and learned that their old basic systems were non longer practical unless there were adjustments. They would adjust to save face and show that they are effective.

The problem that has crept into Aikido training is that movements are telegraphed before application e.g.for the wrist locks, arm locks and take downs, even in the lower black belt training. Real fights often occur with dummy moves and deceit designed to throw off your opponent's defensive strategy. However, I have seen some high level black belts who have been very effective, especially when they have studied an additional martial art.

I have been practicing Ki-Aikido for the past 15 years now and my experiences have told me that Ki-Aikido isn't meant to being used in a fight. If you start a fight, you have already lost. It is far more important to stay calm and make the best choices. Fighting someone is never the best choice, both the winner and the loser loose. As Tohei sensei (founder of Ki-Aikido) once said: To unify mind and body and become one with the universe is the ultimate purpose of our study.

You forgot to mention that Aikido is a joke martial art. It is based upon the Uke's full cooperation or whatever technique that is being used will not work. The typical street thug would completely destroy the Aikido black belt. The best thing an Aikido practitioner can do when confronted by a thug in a real situation is to run very fast toward other people while simultaneously screaming like a girl

@@mieskeb8095 Obviously you want to prevent an attack from happening. But if you can't then what? You think you are going to spin people around and toss them on their heads like Aikido pretends to do? You will get destroyed friend. Take up something worthwhile like Boxing or a practical Karate class where there is hard sparring. You need to learn how to throw a punch and yes even take a punch. I ran Security for some of the largest clubs in NYC. And also headed up Security for large concerts. I've seen it all. And Aikido is a joke! The guy who is going to win the fight MUST know how to punch/kick and how to take it without quitting. One more point friend. I don't know how big you are but it has been my experience that size matters. So start lifting weights. You may not be the biggest guy but lifting will help you immensely. Why am I taking the time to write this lengthy post? I can tell that you are young and I don't want you to get hurt thinking that Aikido will ever actually help you if you are in a bad situation. . I wish you the best and please heed my advice friend.

@@joereidy5732 Have you ever tried Aikido? If so you would know that it isn't just about 'spinning around' what you refer to. All I can talk about is my experience and from my experience I have never been in a fight. The reason why I write such a lengthy comment is because you keep insulting people who practice Aikido by saying what they are doing is a joke. I am not trying to convince you to think otherwise, I am merely giving you another perspective. I believe fighting is never the solution, finding a solution to go together and work in harmony with your environment is the thing we train for.
