Due to its nonaggressive nature, aikido is rapidly becoming the martial arts form most preferred by law enforcement officers. Now, all readers can learn valuable skills needed to thwart an attack and subdue an aggressor in The Secrets of Police Aikido. In aikido, it is preferable to move out of the way of a punch, and it makes more sense to quickly take a person down, rather than stand toe-to-toe and punch it out. Readers of this book will develop a better sense of awareness and learn to control a situation by moving to positions of advantage and readiness. Chapters discuss the history of aikido, warm-up exercises, rules to keep in mind when approaching an opponent, maintaining self-control, and techniques for handling virtually any situation a reader may face. Anyone interested in the martial arts will find The Secrets of Police Aikido both valuable and necessary.

Aikido and the Dynamic Sphere: An Illustrated Introduction provides a complete foundation in the practice of one of the most distinctive and effective Japanese martial arts. Aikido was created in Japan in the 1920's by Morihei Ueshiba, also known as Osensei. To possess the skills, techniques and attitude of the true practitioner of aikido, one must achieve a very high level of integration of the powers of mind and body, the harmonious combination of physical means and ethical motives. By controlling body position and learning how to harmonize vital physical and mental powers, anyone (regardless of size, strength or weight) can fend off attacks using this sophisticated martial art. Written and illustrated by husband/wife team, Oscar Ratti and Adele Westbrook, Aikido and the Dynamic Sphere, with over 1,200 illustrations, includes many Aikido techniques in chapters such as: What is Aikido? The Foundations of Aikido The Practice of Aikido The Basic Techniques of Neutralization Advanced Practice And more!

Aikido is the peaceful martial art. Its defense techniques should be so gentle that also the attacker is delighted. There's no competition, since each participant should be a winner. It's an art that takes a lifetime to learn. This book presents the principles and basic concepts of aikido - deeply rooted in Eastern philosophy and the refined ideals of the samurai. It explores all the Japanese traditions and martial art essentials at work in aikido practice. Stefan Stenudd is a 7 dan Aikikai Shihan aikido instructor, former Vice Chairman of the International Aikido Federation and President of the Swedish Budo & Martial Arts Federation, presently a member of the Swedish Aikido Grading Committee. He has practiced aikido since 1972. He is also a writer of both fiction and non-fiction.

This introduction to Self-Defense Aikido is the result of my personal quest for a version of Aikido which works. It is a version of Aikido with which you can hold your own against street attacks and against other martial arts. Several things which were problematic in normal Aikido were fixed.Offensive techniques have been added to the system. These techniques blend in organically with the Self-Defense Aikido curriculum.The movements are shorter, more linear, and projected downward.Basic techniques have been improved, and are now resistance-proof.The result is a martial art which is still true to its Aikido core. Self-Defense Aikido is geared towards Aikido practitioners and self-defense interested individuals who wish to practice an art which is rougher than Aikido, but less hard on the body than MMA or boxing, which have the risk of brain trauma, and just as practical as Krav Maga, but more intricate.
