Aikido Wisdom: The Source of Excellence

By Joe Katzman on April 16, 2005 6:35 PM

Morihei Ueshiba founded the martial art of Aikido in 1942. It's most famous these days for being Steven Segal's method of choice; but it also has a unique approach and philosophy. At least one of our team members has some Aikido skills, and can vouch for its effectiveness.

O Sensei (common term of address for Ueshiba among aikidoka) said:

"Progress comes
To those who
Train and train;
Reliance on secret techniques
Will get you nowhere."
