Re: Is there more?
I believe there's a Japanese proverb that says" To understand the new look to the old". Tomiki Sensei described the modernisation of Ju Jutsu like so, the old systems/schools of
ju jutsu all contained techniques of striking, joint locking, throwing and ground work in in the modern era Judo emphasizes throwing and ground work and Aikido emphasizes striking and joint lock/controls so on this basis would not Judo be the best art to combine with our Aikido as its underlying principles are the same.
