It is a version of Aikido with which you can hold your own against street attacks and against other martial arts. Several things which were problematic in normal Aikido were fixed.Offensive techniques have been added to the system. These techniques blend in organically with the Self-Defense Aikido curriculum.The movements are shorter, more linear, and projected downward.Basic techniques have been improved, and are now resistance-proof.The result is a martial art which is still true to its Aikido core. Self-Defense Aikido is geared towards Aikido practitioners and self-defense interested individuals who wish to practice an art which is rougher than Aikido, but less hard on the body than MMA or boxing, which have the risk of brain trauma, and just as practical as Krav Maga, but more intricate.

Book Synopsis Psychology of Brazilian jiu-jitsu by : Bakari Akil II, Ph.D.
Download or read book Psychology of Brazilian jiu-jitsu written by Bakari Akil II, Ph.D. and published by Academic Group Publishing (BRAII-owner). This book was released on 2017-08-03 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grappling is a smash-mouth activity. It is a put your beer down and let’s settle this type of martial art. Man vs. man, woman vs. man, child vs. man, it is one of the ultimate ‘prove it’ combat sports. Yet, once you get past the rough and challenging aspect of submission wrestling it’s easy to see that grappling is much more than that. It is also a very cerebral activity. Psychology is the study of mental processes and behaviors. By studying our psyches we hope to learn how to successfully navigate our world and become more capable in our endeavors. As the goal of theory is explanatory and predictive power, using psychology theories can help us to understand some of the existential questions behind our art and can help us to create better models for training and success. In other instances, it is just plain fun to think about. The application of psychology to submission wrestling is relatively new and in many cases non-existent, so this book is more of an exploration of what is possible. It covers a broad range of topics and doesn’t hesitate to introduce counterintuitive thought for the reader to ponder and digest. "Psychology of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu" will whet your appetite to see how psychology can be applied to grappling and not just in a generic sports psychology sense. Through the use of essay, "Psychology of BJJ" talks about what it’s like to be the new guy, problems with warm-ups, success by default, immersive environments, why you can’t always be nice in practice and even asks outright, “Are you happy?” If that is not enough, it also discusses why you absolutely must not avoid better grapplers, tells you what type of grappler you are and why your team is just as important as your coach. Additionally, "Psychology of BJJ" delves into the unconscious mind and talks about easy ways to improve by taking simple steps you probably never thought about before. It also discusses quirky, but valid, psychological theory, based on new research that can make a difference in your grappling game.
