Re: Aikido in 70 Words or Less

Aikido is loosely translated as the way of harmony. Blending and redirecting an attack, Aikido uses the least minimal force. Strikes are often subtle and secondary. Aikido can be direct and quick or circular and flowing. The ultimate spiritual goal is dissipation of attack with defender and attacker unharmed.
