Introduction. Aikido, “the way of harmony and love, containing techniques for developing balance, coordination body (joint techniques, throwing, pivot)”. It is approached at early ages, being a branch of sport much favored by children at young ages 6-10 years. This sub-branch of martial arts, due to exoticism, of how it is perceived by the little children produce emulation attracts to practice of a lots of children. On the on the one hand because of the “mysteries” that accompany this sport, on the other hand due to the instructive accompanying it.

Hiroo MOCHIZUKI Soke De L’École YOSEIKAN BUDO
Hiroo MOCHIZUKI Soke de l’école YOSEIKAN BUDO To the Yoseikan world Salon-de-Provence, 27th December 2013 This year 2013 is marked by the 10th anniversary of the death of my father, Master Minoru MOCHIZUKI, first Soke of the Yoseikan School. As I was chosen to be his successor concerning the Budo of the Yoseikan School, I felt all the weight of the responsibilities for this legacy, as far as passing down and improving the School knowledge as well as ensuring its continuity is concerned. With this letter, I want first of all to thank his closest pupils for their support during this mission and especially for their efforts to preserve the spirit of work, research and uprightness that has been my father’s since the founding of the first Hombu dojo Yoseikan in Shizuoka (Hitoyado cho) in 1931. As Soke of the Yoseikan School since 2000, it is my duty to publicly remind everyone of the official list of experts who were awarded the diploma “Menkyo Kaiden” (*) by my father almost twenty years ago. It was published at his request in April 1996 in the journal of his international organisation BUDO YOSEIKAN. 1. MOCHIZUKI Hiroo 2. MURAI Kyoichi (†) 3. SUGIYAMA Shoji 4. MOCHIZUKI Tetsuma 5.

This paper is a reflection on aikido as a tool for teaching about elicitive conflict transformation and the larger field of peace and conflict studies. Problem and aim. One of the central difficulties of teaching elicitive conflict transformation is that, as an adaptive and emergent method, it is non-prescriptive and therefore conventional didactics are inappropriate. The aim is to add to the existing corpus of literature on aikido and elicitve conflict transformation by combining the philosophical perspectives presented in this paper. Method. The reflection builds on a comparison of Canadian First Nation’s philosophy, the Japanese martial art aikido, and the Hei- deggerian term Verwindung as complementary philosophical approaches that can potentially deepen the understanding of elicitive conflict transformation. From the starting point of the Indigenous Canadian perspective from the Hesquiaht Nation, the term wiwikink’api’ is introduced, which means ‘fighting with no one.’ From there, aikido is presented as both a physical and spiritual practice that teaches non-aggression and balancing forces and it is compared to Verwindung. -

Alle seine Freunde und Kameraden seiner Staffel kamen ums Leben. Zwölf Stunden vor seinem nächsten »letzten Einsatz« wurde der Flugzeugträger von einem U-Boot torpediert und versank. Er war einer von wenigen Überlebenden, nach vier Tagen im Wasser wurde er schwerverletzt und erschöpft gerettet. Er hatte sich während den vier Tagen an Holzplanken und Fässern festgeklammert.

Entrevista a Michel Coquet Sensei
Entrevista a Michel Coquet Sensei París, 19 de Octubre de 2016 Pregunta: Hace muchos años que queríamos hablar con usted, pero no pretendemos ser inoportunos… Respuesta: ¡No, en absoluto! Si os recibo es por voluntad propia y porque quiero dedicaros un poco de tiempo. Sé quiénes sois y el objeto de vuestra investigación me alegra. ¿Por dónde queréis empezar? P –Quisiéramos saber cómo fue su retorno a Francia, después de unos años en el Japón. ¿Se sintió fuera de lugar por la mentalidad francesa? ¿Cómo superó su accidente? R - ¡Bueno, esto son dos preguntas! No tiene sentido hablar de mi rodilla, estaba dañada y me operaron, aunque antes trabajé durante seis meses por cuestiones del seguro. La primera operación fue un fracaso y tuve que someterme a una segunda operación. Lugo me recuperé por mi cuenta y cuando me fue posible comencé a enseñar a algunos amigos y miembros de mi familia. En esa época vivía en Villepinte y mi único dojo era la acera y la calle frente a la casa de mis padres. De esta forma corrió la voz de que yo enseñaba las artes marciales en línea directa del Japón y varios jóvenes vinieron a verme por curiosidad o para entrenar, no había más de diez. P – ¿Queda alguien todavía con usted de esa época? R – Sólo uno, Jean-Louis Mignotet, hoy instructor de Aikido y de sable Katori. ¡Pero ya lo conocéis, es mi alumno más antiguo! Con el tiempo empecé a ser conocido y la ayuda me llegó a través del padre de un alumno que trabajaba en la Federación de Judo y Disciplinas Asociadas. -

The late renowned aikido master Terry Dobson, together with Victor Miller, present aikido as a basis for conflict resolution. Not all conflicts are contests, say Dobson and Miller, and not all conflicts are equally threatening. Finding more options to deal with conflict can change how we deal with other people. "Attack-tics" is a system of conflict resolution based on the principles of aikido, the non-violent martial art created by master Morihei Ueshiba after World War II.--Adapted from back cover.

Valley Aikido Member's Guide
VALLEY AIKID MEMBERS GUIDE By: Julia Freedgood Design: Liz Greene Photography and concept: Special Thanks to Shannon Brishols, WHAT IS AIKIDO? RL Sarafon, Skip Chapman Sensei and the Greater Aikido Community Aikido is a traditional Japanese martial art practiced for self development and defense. The word Aikido means “the way of harmony with ki.” Ki is hard to translate, but can be understood as breath power, spirit or universal life force. Morihei Ueshiba, or O-Sensei (great teacher) created Aikido in the early 1940s. A master of several classical Japanese martial arts (budo) including judo, kendo and jujitsu, O-Sensei developed Aikido to respond to the modern world. According to his son, Kisshomaru Ueshiba, Aikido is orthodox because it inherits the spiritual and martial tradition of ancient Japan . But O-Sensei Copyright VA © 2007 concluded that the true spirit of budo cannot be found in a All rights reserved.

Instead, the path of Aikido leads to “victory over self” and is realized in the quest for self perfection of body, mind and spirit. Thus, unlike martial sports, Aikido avoids competition and VALLEY AIKIDO does not allow tournaments. Instead, it stresses collaborative practice allowing all students to pursue their individual Valley Aikido was founded by Paul Sylvain, shihan in 1985 to potential in an atmosphere of shared knowledge. -
AWA Newsletter
AWA DEC - 2017 | ISSUE 16 AWA | PAGE 01 LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Jeremy M.L. Hix, Nidan Dojo Cho-Greater Lansing Aikido; Lansing, MI USA Reflecting on this year, I am inspired by those closest to me. Their perseverance, mental, physical, and emotional fortitude, go well beyond anything short of super human. There are some battles that cannot be won. As in Aikido, there is no winner or loser, only Masakatsu Agatsu "true victory is victory over oneself." Such is the life of people with chronic pain and fatigue. Conditions such as Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Chronic Fatigue, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Migraines (to name a few from a long list) are "Invisible" in the sense that they may not present outward physical manifestations of the associated symptoms. Furthermore, the individual living with the condition may also feel invisible in the sense of "self" as they are dismissed as faking their ailments. Often, this causes feelings of isolation, depression, anxiety, and withdrawal. I'm fortunate to have two people in my life that are very close to my heart, both battling with invisible health conditions. They are relentless in their perseverance, in their ability to overcome. They practice Aikido on crutches, in wheelchairs, and are eager to learn. They travel to Japan and explore the world. They never give up. They never acquiesce. Through understanding, compassion, empathy, and love, we can help make visible the beautiful person beneath the vale of these chronic conditions. I would like to dedicate this editorial to my better halves: Kristy, and her sister, Kayla. Thank you both for your perseverance in the face of adversity, and for giving me the privilege of being your friend along the way. -
