The technical foundations of Aikido are derived from ancient Samurai jujitsu (grappling) and kenjitsu (sword-work). Morihei Ueshiba, the founder of Aikido, trained tirelessly in these arts as well as devoted himself to spiritual study and meditation.
This intensive pursuit of mastery and deeper understanding resulted in the awakening to his vision of Budo (martial way) being a path of creation rather than destruction. This was a revolutionary understanding. Rather than a vehicle for domination and violence, the founder saw the heart of Budo as the source of benevolence, fostering the harmonious fulfillment of Life. 42C Riel Drive,
