Re: Has Aikido ever helped you in a real fight?
My aikido training worked for me after only three years of training. I dropped and pinned somebody who was high and violent without injury to him and with only a bruise for me (from hitting a chair as I turned).
A few years later, I again successfully restrained somebody who was high and violent -- again, without injury.
Later this year, I'll celebrate ten years of studying aikido. I wouldn't keep at it if I didn't think it was effective.
