Description:

Provides an introduction to aikido, a Japanese martial art form popularized by Steven Seagal. Unlike some other martial arts, aikido is not a competitive sport but rather a purely self-defense style. Teaches how to throw or restrain attackers by redirecting their own energy and momentum. Since one uses the attacker's energy, aikido does not require great physical strength. (F,S)
