Not everybody is associated with Aikikai or Hombu Dojo.


From what I've seen and heard, if you want to live a Christian life, Aikido can help you. If you want to truly study Aikido, Christianity can help you. I've known people who were very active both in Aikido and their church.

Just like there are different views of Christianity, there are different views of Aikido. The style I practice considers Aikido to be an internal art. In fact, it has incorporated some tai chi into it's exercise routine. Other people have other ideas about Aikido.

When you feel comfortable enough, you should start talking to your instructors. It's not only the Christian thing to do, but it's also a common Aikido practice.

It is not practice that makes perfect, it is correct practice that makes perfect.
