Fudoshin - Dojo Aikido/Ken/Jo

Aikido is a Japanese martial art developed by Ueshiba Morihei, emphasizing strategic and tactical considerations alongside moral and ethical values. It is known as a peaceful martial art that utilizes physical principles such as axes, levers, and kinetics. The techniques are derived from sword techniques with the Japanese katana. Aikido focuses on redirecting attacks rather than blocking them, using principles like irimi and tenkan to harmonize with the opponent's movements. The dojo in Halle practices a functional and strong yet soft style, where training is tailored to individual abilities and ages. Aikido promotes natural movements and aims for the preservation of life and the development of all beings.
