On a purely physical level it is an art involving some throws and joint locks that are derived from Jujitsu and some throws and other techniques derived from Kenjutsu.

He believed in the oneness of all creation, that all beings are born from Kami (spirit), and, that we are each responsible for our collective destiny. Training in Aikido provides children with self-confidence in several aspects: the ability to deal with stressful situations while remaining calm and collected , the ability to empathize with others , and the ability to defend themselves from physical aggression.

Learning to respond positively to the negative energies of conflict and achieving harmony will elevate your consciousness above selfish ego and bring you closer to harmony with the universal consciousness.Aikido includes many responses to different types of attacks including throws, holds, joint locks, pins, and disarming techniques.
