Episode description

The Aiki Dojo Podcast - Is Aikido Lethal?

In Episode 50 of the Aiki Dojo Podcast, we discuss lethality and discus the whether or not Aikido is lethal. Aikido is a mature martial art but it has its roots in traditional Japanese Jujitsu dating as far back as mid 800 AD. Born out of warfare and combat, Aikido strives to be a modern martial art and thus the role of killing has been evolved out of the Art. But, can it be lethal? Should it be lethal? We answer these questions and much more. 


Enjoy!
