As ai (harmony) is common with ai (love), I decided to name my unique budo "Aikido," although the word "aiki" is an old one. The word which was used by the warriors in the past is fundamentally different from that of mine. Morihei Ueshiba

Welcome to Aikido Pretoria
AIKIDO is an authentic Japanese martial art, a modern Budo that is also a subtle system of personal development. Aikido comprises physical and spiritual dimensions and was founded by Morihei Ueshiba after he had mastered many traditional arts and engaged in profound spiritual training.
