Aikido is an extremely effective martial art and today, is practiced in many different countries around the world. With its roots based in the Japanese fighting arts of Jujitsu and mastery of the sword and staff, Aikido's combination of throws and pins, make it a leading form of self defence. Taught to police forces throughout the world, Aikido is also one of the few martial arts that deals with multiple attackers and does not rely on physical strength to overcome opponents. This makes it an ideal choice of martial art for women, men and children alike.
