Aikido is a martial art. As such it involves practicing in dealing with conflict. The founder of Aikido, Morihei Uyeshiba, despite his technical mastery, questioned the value of a path based on victory over others. His struggle with this dilemma led to a profound understanding which is the basis of modern Aikido, a martial art of refinement and astonishing power.
