Aikido is a modern Japanese martial art that was developed early last century by Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969). In Japanese, Aikido means "the way of harmony with the force and principle of nature." Master Ueshiba sought to develop a martial art which was more in harmony with his philosophical and spiritual beliefs. Aikido is distinctly non-competitive and does not hold contests.
