The Different Dynamics In The Practice Of Aikido
The dynamics of Aikido leaves no room for definite styles and techniques when practicing the martial art. When Aikido was developed by Morihei Ueshiba many students sought to learn from his training in the art of Aikido
On the completion of their training the teacher encouraged all his students to open their own dojos and centers of learning so they could spread the study of his martial art. Other than simply encouraging them to start their own dojos, he also encouraged them to apply flexibility and add their own principles to the study of Aikido. This was all as long as the adhered to the basic tenets of refraining from the use of force when fighting.
