AIKIDO Base & Fundamentals

Historically, martial arta have been regarded as a means of developing both physical and mental capabilities, which is a fundamental aspect of any self-defence system. Discipline, rigorous physical training and, above all, a vision of war and the destruction of the enemy by any means have accompanied the practice of many of the styles. However, new trends have been emerging in the ever-changing world of martial arts. It should be noted that any style of martial art can be bene cial for achieving physical and spiritual growth. However, the martial art known as Aikido is one that has been developing in Puerto Rico and many Latin American countries. This is particularly relevant to those seeking a philosophy of life, as humanity is moving towards new social, political and economic frontiers. Our future aspirations include integration and peaceful social coexistence. These aspirations align with the view that violence should not be used as a mechanism for solving problems between human beings. The social cost of violence is too high for it to represent an answer for the future. Aikido is completely in tune with these aspirations and the times. Aikido is a process by which we achieve a state of harmony, first with ourselves and then with everything around us. We cannot give that which we do not possess.
