Re: Why do people think Aikido does not work?
I think the majority of people on here covered it already so I won't add a whole lot to the conversation. The problem with techniques that can't be practiced in alive training (sparring, randori, rolling etc) is that you never develop your nervous system to use it under anything but idealized circumstances. The key in making your Aikido effective is in the training methodology...to train your body and place your self under varying and adverse circumstances.
That's where it will come alive. This goes for any art really.
