As a poster on Bullshido.com, which is populated be some very talented MMA individuals, Aikido can be seen as a soft touch.

I know different, sure I'm not pushed as hard as a pro MMA fighter, 90% of Sherdoggers probably dont train that hard. I've trained with BJJ/MMA guys that have had nothing but praise for the style of Aikido I do, a compliment that I return to them when I step on their mat.

Aikido is was you make it.

Bottomline for me is, do I train sincerily. Do I fall down not because I tank, but because its real, do I tap because its real. For me the answer is yes.
