I watched a kung fu movies the other day.. I dont know the name, but anyway. They hit so fast and kick woth a tremendous speed, so my question is if u learn to do fast defence in Aikido. To block away many attacks and then do the propper aikido technique.. When u c Steven Seagal then he has that speed too.. But i have never seen any1 do aikido like that... So i wonder if the element of blocking is tought in Aikido or if i have tp do like Karate or Wing Chu(Or what its called..)
Plz help me out here... //Johannes
