Aikido in North Harrow
What is Aikido?
A Japanese form of self-defense and martial art that uses locks, holds, throws, and the opponent's own strength.
Aikido is very different from disciplines such as Karate, Kick Boxing, Taekwondo, Kung Fu, Mixed Martial Arts, Muay Thai, Kempo and Krav Maga where there is emphasis on kicking, punching or wrestling.
By choosing Aikido don't expect to spend hours kicking bags or learning boring katas!
Aikido is versatile with flowing circular movements and you will practice a variety of differing attacks and defences (applications) during a typical evenings training. In essence Aikido is turning an opponents power against him.
