This ninja book includes studies of ninjutsu history, philosophy, wisdom, and presents a wide range of information from authors, historians, chronicles and scrolls in order to foster a deep understanding of this "shadowy" art.

Download or read book Aikido and the Harmony of Nature written by Mitsugi Saotome and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 1993-10-19 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of the ethical and philosophical principles of Aikido, as envisioned by its founder Morihei Ueshiba, and how this unique martial art can deepen our connection to nature Here is a unique approach to the teachings of the Founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba, as interpreted by his direct student of fifteen years. Mitsugi Saotome examines the spiritual philosophy of the Founder, the warrior ideals of feudal Japan as the basis of his martial arts philosophy, and the scientific principles underlying the philosophy of Aikido technique. The author shows that the physical movement of Aikido is the embodiment of principles of the spirit. Negative force is not countered with aggression but is controlled and redirected through the power and balance of spiral movement. This is the shape of Aikido and the dynamic shape at the foundation of all energies of existence. Aikido movement can only be understood from its roots in universal law and the processes of nature. The sincere practice and study of Aikido deepens our appreciation for the perfection of nature's balance and brings us back into harmony with our environment, other people, and ourselves. Abundantly illustrated with the author's drawings, diagrams, and calligraphies, as well as photographs demonstrating Aikido techniques, the book also offers a history of Aikido, personal anecdotes about the Founder, and translations of several of his lectures.
Download or read book Principle of Aiki and Its Application in Aikido and Aikijujutsu written by Alun James Harris and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-11-02 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aiki, the unbalancing element of the martial arts of Aikido and Aikijujutsu, is the least understood aspect of these arts. Generally, descriptions of Aiki vary from the mystical to vague concepts like blending with the attacker's energy. This book gives a meaningful and practical bio-mechanical definition of Aiki. This description of Aiki clearly differentiates it from the unbalancing methods used in the associated martial arts of Judo, Jujutsu and Wrestling. Using this definition, Aiki can be applied in three fundamental forms. For each form, a detailed description of how Aiki is applied is given and is supplemented with demonstrations, so that the reader can experience the unbalancing effect of Aiki. Examples are described in detail, showing how each form of Aiki is applied in the techniques of Aikido and Aikijujutsu. The explanation of Aiki given here unifies the arts of Aikido and Aikijujutsu. Throughout the book, the ideas discussed are supported with illustrated diagrams. The Principle of Aiki described in this book has been used to analyse the unbalancing element of Aikido and Aikijujutsu techniques recorded on Youtube by well known Aikido and Aikijujutsu Sensei. This supporting material is available on the author's website aiki.simdif.com.

Download or read book AIKIDO Base Fundamentals Introductory Manual written by Javier J. Vázquez Bravo and published by L.J. Crowe. This book was released on 2024-07-02 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, martial arta have been regarded as a means of developing both physical and mental capabilities, which is a fundamental aspect of any self-defence system. Discipline, rigorous physical training and, above all, a vision of war and the destruction of the enemy by any means have accompanied the practice of many of the styles. However, new trends have been emerging in the ever-changing world of martial arts. It should be noted that any style of martial art can be bene cial for achieving physical and spiritual growth. However, the martial art known as Aikido is one that has been developing in Puerto Rico and many Latin American countries. This is particularly relevant to those seeking a philosophy of life, as humanity is moving towards new social, political and economic frontiers. Our future aspirations include integration and peaceful social coexistence. These aspirations align with the view that violence should not be used as a mechanism for solving problems between human beings. The social cost of violence is too high for it to represent an answer for the future. Aikido is completely in tune with these aspirations and the times. Aikido is a process by which we achieve a state of harmony, first with ourselves and then with everything around us. We cannot give that which we do not possess.

Book excerpt: Aikido Ground Fighting presents effective ground techniques that remain true to aikido founder Morehei Ueshiba's teachings while addressing a potential weakness in the system: while aikido is renowned for its submission and compliance techniques as well as grappling from a standing position, it is not known for its effectiveness when it comes to ground fighting.

Written by a direct student of Morihei Ueshiba in collaboration with other aikido teachers, this book remains steadfastly true to the founder's teachings while presenting innovative and effective techniques. Containing never-before-published pictures of Ueshiba as well as step-by-step photographs clearly demonstrating techniques, Aikido Ground Fighting is designed for aikido students looking to become more well-rounded martial artists as well as practitioners of all martial arts seeking effective self-defense techniques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master the wooden weapons used in Aikido with this comprehensive martial arts training manual.
