Aikido movement

Aikido (Japanese: 合 気 道, aikidō) is a martial art that has growth roots and culture from Japan. Aikido is a manifestation of modernization of Japanese thought with a blanket of traditional Japanese culture. This made the martial arts developed by Morihei Ueshiba around the 1800s (植 芝 盛 平 Ueshiba Morihei) to be very popular among various groups in the modern age as a lifestyle. The root of aikido martial arts comes mainly from an ancient martial tradition which is inherited only by a royal family, [1] namely "Daito Ryu Aiki-Jujutsu (or ju-jutsu)".
