Synopsis

Discovering Aikido analyzes the principles that enable the student to learn Aikido efficiently. Many spend their lives searching for the elusive aiki, or fluid power, of Aikido. Although no book can provide a perfect insight, this volume presents the serious practitioner with a better sense of direction and an improved understanding of what is often considered to be one of the most complex martial arts. A clearly written book that enables the student to learn Aikido in a proficient way, it emphasizes the importance of both the "individual" and independent learning. It advocates that students should seek the principles, not the form, and then apply them when practising technique.
