Re: Aikido, Rickson Gracie and Connection

My son is a Rickson Gracie student and teaches BJJ in his own school. Additionally he teaches police DT based on the Koga Method of Aikido. I've heard him say many times that BJJ is Aikido on the ground and it makes sense to me from the limited practice I've had grappling with he and his students.
