What’s the deal with all the Aikido love?.?
Man I hate to blow 5 points by asking a question, but figured I would try it out. This is mainly for those people who everytime someone comes on the Y!Answers and asks what martial art should they learn you answer “Aikido”
“What art should I learn to learn how to throw” you say “Aikido”
“What art should I learn for self defense” you say “Aikido”
What art is fast paced and will go with my TKD background” you say “Aikido”
First, have you ever taken Aikido? Second, have you spent actual time training in Aikido, or know exactly what Aikido is about? Third, have you ever actually used Aikido on a resisting opponent under an andrenaline situation? Last, why do you think Aikido is the answer for everything?
I’m just curious, I am a lowly level 2 who has answered some questions, and am always baffled at the amount of Aikido nuthugging that I see for answers here, and was just curious why so many people are all about Aikido.
For the record, I studied Aikido for two years.
I can answer that question a lot of ways:
1. Most people who take aikido think they have found the one and only true art that beats all.
2. Aikido draws significantly more hippy, treehuggin nutjobs than most other arts. Karate has it’s fair share of brutes, but aikido attracts those who are not only interested in martial arts, but spiritual, mind and body stuff, social networking – as well as minimal workouts that stretch you, but dont’ require hours of jumping jacks and pushups. Lots of older people.
3. Aikido can teach a bunch of martial principals (theories) that most other arts fail to teach. I don’t think aikdio can stand on it’s own, but is a most beneficial add on to budo training.
4. Most people find jui jitsu and muay thai just to darn hard to spell properly.
I agree with you – I train aikido too, but I’m tired of seeing it as the universal answer to any martial arts question.
This is what Taekwondo is all about!!!!
