NotQuiteDead Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 What? I think you're misunderstanding me.Weaponless said:They are actually similar to jiu-jitsu techniques, not exactly, but the same in principle.... but like everything else in Aikido, you are using your opponents force against them.By saying that he stated that jiu-jitsu techniques don't use the opponents force against them, and it sounded like he thinks aikido is unique in that it doesn't fight force with force. It's not- even in wrestling (a style that is often thought of a contest of strength by people who know nothing about it) you use the opponent's force against him whenever possible. Using the opponent's force against them is found in a lot of styles and doesn't make aikido unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasumi27 Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 whats with all you guys debating about aikido??aikido is almost the same as judo and JJ.I know little of JJ but i was told that judo tips people off balance.aikido simply manipulates the attackers joints if not using their own strength against themself.aikido is easy once you master it. ----------------------------Kasumi - Aikido Shodan---------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goju_boi Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 no, it's not almost the same as judo/ju jutsu. B/c aikido doesn't have the ground work that these arts do. https://www.samuraimartialsports.com for your source of Karate,Kobudo,Aikido,And Kung-Fu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
