Morihei Ueshiba, O Sensei, Founder of Aikido |
Aikido is a Japanese martial art developed by Morihei Ueshiba, often referred to by his title O Sensei or Great Teacher. Aikido focuses not on punching or kicking opponents, but rather on using their own energy to gain control of them or to throw them away from you. It is not a static art, but places great emphasis on motion and the dynamics of movement. |
