Aikido vs MMA
The early days of MMA delivered a collision of fighting styles, where bouts rarely lasted more than three minutes. But the sport has evolved, and now mixed martial arts is composed of multiple fighting styles. The combination of the best aspects of wrestling, Judo, Sambo, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Kickboxing, Boxing, and Muay Thai makes it one of the most popular sports in the world. The traditional martial art of Aikido is pretty efficient in disabling street bullies and cocky attackers, but in this video we are going to take a look at how effective it would be in MMA.

Aiki has had a major impact on my life. MIND,BODY,SPIRIT. I use it in everything I do. A book I got around 1989,The Principles of Aikido. In the preface it says. That we use Aikido all day long. Or we would kill ourselves if we didn’t. It’s mind boggling when I think about the fact that everything I do. Is based on the principles of Aikido. Shenogi/Sabaki. Control/ Execute. Begin and End. Control and FOLLOW THROUGH. DO WHAT YOU SAID YOU ARE GOING TO DO. But all that only come from the DOING.
So the used other methods than Aikido at the end,acording to your words.
Been in boxing, taekwondo and other mma before but only Aikido made me calm and not aggressive when encountering stranger unlike before i love fighting and dominating people. Aikido teach me how to be calm and be passive but also be cautious. So im very thankful i have more patience when encountering stupid people and act tough in the street.
Sup, big martial arts fan here, I'm very curious about your Aikido experience! What style do you practice? Do you spar? Has it helped you in a fighting situation so far?
I think Aikido has a very amazing philosophy/mindset in general in the way they approach dangerous situations in trying to neutralize instead of damage
@@steponme661I think Aikido is more defensive and less offensive, it may help in dangerous situations where you cant run away
I was a blackbelt in Tae Kwon Do, achieving my rank at 17 after starting at white belt when I was 12, under a strict Korean master where you really had to earn it. And I did. Fast and powerful high spinning kicks was really flashy and great for the cameras and demonstrations, but not very practical for a street fight in Chicago. Still, being fast and strong and flexible, is good either way. I met a friend who was the drummer in our band. He was into Aikido. In the yard behind the house I very quickly realized I couldn’t beat him sparring because he’d never make the first move. He waited for me to make a mistake. He’d capitalize on it and I was on the ground. Game over, and he barely had to move to take me down. Don’t get me wrong, I was good and could fly spinning in the air, but he’d just duck and wait til I landed. Wham! I’m down. The difference is, we were friends, sparring and not trying to hurt each other, so I had to not go full-force because Tae Kwon Do is about deadly strikes and you can’t really toy around with it. You have to miss a kill-shot on purpose so nobody winds up in the hospital. You control a kick as a semi-contact “slap”, and a head shot is worth two points. Your opponent is pissed but not hurt, and the match can go on for hours if you have the stamina. Aikido is more passive so he could disable me without hurting me at all. I found that fascinating. I miss being able to fly and break boards but man, I’d be no match for a good aikido guy on the street. Much respect. Thanks for the video. 🤙🏼
To have earned your black belt by age 17 means warrior blood flows in your veins, so hearing from you that Tae Kwon Do black belt expertise is no match for Akkido's deflections does come as a startling revelation.
@@riverbankfisher , Well thank you. I was just being honest. My reasoning is based on the fact that Tae Kwon Do is very gymnastic and doesn’t age very well. At 60 years old now and not training for decades, my flexibility is gone and my legs are shot. Tae Kwon Do is 70% kicking. Watching a Tae Kwon Do demonstration is by far the flashiest and most spectacular of the martial arts and why I loved it so much. Aikido is purely defensive and almost all hands, so I could take up Aikido right now and still be effective into my 80’s if I trained, but Aikido demonstrations don’t draw pure awe from a crowd of spectators. Yet, it’s more practical and effective in a real fight. Judo is as well. You don’t have to be young and in top physical shape for Aikido, so it’s not adhering to a clock. Jean Claude Van Dam was a Tae Kwon Do master but where is he now? (aged out) Steven Seagal was an Aikido master and that old fat bastard can still kick ass!
I saw a friendly competition aikido guys vs boxers. 10 vs 10. Boxers won all the fights.
@@jackillmf , Totally believable, considering the level of expertise in boxing is more natural and instinctive. Mastery in Aikido and most martial arts aren’t nearly as disciplined as they used to be. It takes decades to master a martial art and I’ve seen 10 year old kids who suck, wearing a blackbelt that wasn’t earned but bought through monthly dues. It’s corrupted like everything else these days. So that’s not a real comparison. A halfway decent boxer can easily beat a terrible martial artist these days. I used to go against boxers when I was young, and I’d easily mop the floor with them. ( in points) It was a common test in the 70’s. A good kicker never lets a boxer inside. Keeps him at a distance with legs and speed and range. Boxers are basically a still target. Easily whomped with a fast spin kick they can’t see coming. In a real analogy, a boxer is a dog and a martial artist is a cat. Guess who usually wins that? The cat. But again, trying to recreate a real fight scenario with added rules in a ring, means no deadly strikes are allowed, padding prevents effective kill shots, so it’s not a real or true fight with the consequences that would naturally occur for real. The contest and comparison is ridiculously flawed by the rules that say breaking your opponent’s neck with a jumping spinning heel kick isn’t allowed. So nobody will ever know for real which discipline is more effective because it’s against the law and human nature, to actually test it. Real fighting isn’t a sport. So the sport can’t decide anything in reality.
This is true, my friend. If you have been in Aikido for years, there are secrets that lead to death and are often not taught to students, including points that cut off energy from the brain and lead to death and coma. These are among the secrets. Greetings from Morocco.
My dad was taught aikido by someone who was taught by Morihei Ueshiba and sometimes I just randomly throw a punch just to see what’ll happen and he always manages to catch it or like pull it and I usually end up in some arm lock or on the floor
🤣 typical kid to aggravate dad. My mom is a chest pointer I don’t mess with her I’m not fast enough to get away 🤣
Koichi Tohei (Tohei Sensai) Founder of Shinshin-tōitsu (Ki Aikido)?
What is your father's rank?
@@KingJancelot why?
@@oscarcampbellhobson I was wondering how high he got in the years of his training that's all.
Thanks to all the guys that pointed out that Aikido is more a a way of life on how to master oneself. It was never meant to harm others. If you are purely after fighting and sports, many of the Aikido techniques can be found in Aikijutsu, Judo and many other grappling martial arts. I practiced Aikido in my younger years but haven't on the mat for at least 20. And yet the mindset and breathing techniques to relax myself stayed with me. Ai is unity or harmony, Ki is energy or life force and Do is the way. That's what I always remember from our sensei's back then. It is a way to gain confidence and a more peaceful and calm life. The true masters will always try to diffuse a fight with kind words and not even require their techniques to be shown. So do not expect the techniques to be espoused for MMA or street fights. That is exactly against the higher purpose of the art.
I can see you talk bullshit
O'Sensei used to say that if one enters a fight, one is no longer practicing aikido.
I think there are definitely good techniques in Aikido, but most things tend to work better with very passive opponents.. and that's what always bothers me in Aikido demonstrations, the opponents are too passive and it's just not realistic
In Aikido the attacker NEVER may become passive. Otherwise the "Aikido Technique" (if you like to call it so) will fizzle.
That's because the body will be destroyed if the opponent doesn't move passively.
@@kei-js8bb on point! it looks like 'dancing', but if the opponent does not follow, he will be disabled for a long time.
this is why i love randori
Initially I studied Uechi ryu and Judo. In Okinawa, I studied Shorin ryu on base and Uechi off base. When I got back to the states I studied Aikido. Our form combines all those arts. Most important is kata. One must see do or visualize a technique 5,000 times to develop muscle memory. In a critical attack that is life threatening anything less can lead to failure. I have studied and taught martial arts from 1962-2023.
As with any other martial art, Aikido is not the only answer for any threat. That said, Judo, Jujitsu, Karate, Kung Fu, Jeet Kun Do, Krav Maga etc all have a plethora of different styles and, strengths in their respective styles. Learning from them and, growing from them all is the best way to accurately assess them.
I was taught aikido at fort benning. I've used it a few times. To my advantage
I like Aikido and believe it can work with dedicated training. Yet, I’ve never met anyone who represented Aikido effectively. Maybe it’s because, as was stated in this video, one has to be willing to absorb at least 80% of the attack (energy wise). That takes serious relaxation.
also that the most important aikido techniques are banned in MMA...
@@TemuvWhat, eye gouging? Nut shots? Rabbit punches? Biting? Hair pulling? Spitting? Soccer kicks to the head of an unconscious opponent? WWE nose hooks? What about outside of the ring? In the thousands of street fight videos, I’ve seen judo, boxing, wrestling, bjj, Muay Thai, karate, and taekwondo used to neutralize or defeat an attacker. I’ve never once seen aikido used on an actual opponent. It only seems to work on mats against someone’s own students who are putting in 95% of the work of flopping.
When I started studying Shotokan. I started because there is a very structured training regimen. Doing 1000 of punches,1000 of Kicks,1000 of blocks and 1000 of Kata. SHOTOKAN TRAINING WILL KICK YOUR ASS. My Sensei made me and another Student do our Kata 25 times in a row. AGAIN,AGAIN,AGAIN. Then he made us do another lower Kata 15 time. With a folding chair over our heads. Godan for him. Tekki. Sho for be. So when I started training Aikido I really didn’t think that it would be as grueling as Shotokan can. How wrong I was. Just picking your butt of the ground was grueling. Learning how to roll. How to move using Tenken and Irimi. To move in Aikido is to use every part of YOYR body. And to keep it flexible and strong. Let alone relaxing your mind, spirit and body. Let’s not forget getting up and down just from kneeling. Do that a 1000 times. That alone a workout.
how do you break down the 1k punches, 200 X 5 in a session ?
Feels weird to finally see people talking well about aikido, I don't do it but I often see it mocked as bullshido or something by mma fans
@@soundcloud_official It’s not something to take lightly. Yes lot of Bullshito. Aiki. Is a life long pursuit of Peace. And that’s where the conversation starts. It is something. That is hard to explain and comprehend. If your coming from a confrontational position as we do in most martial arts. To really put it simply. Aiki. Is really designed to end the escalation of violence. Two words. Control and execute. Shenogi Sabaki. It’s not just for self defense. It’s a life long pursuit. To be in control at all times. And to finish what one says he would finish. I had those words hung from my printing press station. SHENOGI/ SABAKI. CONTROL AND FINISH. I HAD TO CONTROL MY PRINTING PRESS. TO CREATE THE FINISH PRODUCT. THAT A whole another thing to speak of. Stay. In control. To execute your life.
Have to agree. Learning to roll standing up from your rolling your shoulders first was fantastic, but classes were 110%.
@@soundcloud_official my guy when people start talking about peace and spiritual shit when it comes to their fighting style just understand its bullshit for the love of God if you don't believe me theirs a a guy on KZhead who's a black belt in aikido with 13 years experience and even he will tell you it's bullshit. all the aikido guys iv come across say the most wild shit and when it comes down to fighting they say almost always say no. I got one guy to spar with me who was a black belt (they hand those out like candy) and I felt like I was fighting a toddler. couldn't punch, kick and had zero defense I could hit him when ever I wanted to. listen i got a crooked nose, scars on my face scars on my shins cauliflower ears etc. go look at these aikido guys. there always these soft ass baby faced guys with pony tails. and I know they say never judge a book by its cover but the wear and tear from actual fighting eventually starts to show. these people watch way to many movies
I trained in Karate, then to Tae Kwon Do (under a 10th dan), but Aikido after. Aikido, have to say, I learned the most, meaning a change of direction. At 57 now, talk yourself out of it, all else let loose. Martial Arts teaches so many aspects of life - thanks.
My friend, a lifelong aikidoka, has talked his way out of ridiculously bad situations, often spontaneously adapting his tone and emotions to that of the aggressors while redirecting their attention.
@@unitynofear7758 I'm an insurance broker now, and was a young one back then. Master Lee taught me to treat everyone as your favourite Uncle, Aunt, Brother who may be astray. I was shocked when 1st taught the initial Aikido approach - what I mean to say is that Aikido puts this into actual practice, and somewhat as it is a defensive art, you always retreat to a point.. TKD is a more up front approach. Read the Masters work way back when. Thank you.
jesus christ can you people actually go fight or shut tf up. like fr you people watch to many movies
@@briz1965 thank you very much, great job.
But if you can't avoid a fight and if you actually needs to use your hands to resolve a situation, did you find Akido effective?
I've been training aikido for many years it's lacking in so many ways but when combined with my Tae Kwon do it gives me more options for defence and attack love it
Eww
@@BearManDP huh?
Any good grappling plus striking style combination is good. Ultimately it results in combat sambo or Japanese jiu-jitsu.
please dont use it to attack people tho🙏🏼😂
True. I was doing TKD when my instructor started exploring Aikido with us. Aikido is just NOT a fighting art but it is highly effective in conflict situations - where you don’t want to obliterate your opponent (spouse, family, etc). Disarming and controlling people - without getting fellow cops to surround him and beat him to death! The aim is techniques anyone can do without great strength or lengthy training. HOWEVER it does require adequate strength AND the training can be unending! Still, there are practical techniques even at beginner level…
Love how you included the wolfman, a guy who went 2-3 with his only wins coming from a 0-0 and 1-2 fighter in local competitions and is considered one of the biggest trolls on mma-fora.
Aikido is what happens when a ju jutsu guy finds religion.
Jiujitsu is already a religion..
@@mikhailvasiliev6275 you obviously don't get the joke... r/whooosh
@@harrani592 You're right I don't. It's literally just conversation.
😂😂😂
😆
the problem with aikido will always be that is wasn't designed for hand to hand. it was designed to disarm a swordsman peacefully. that is why the movements are so exaggerated, because how you handle a sword is far more pronounced then how you move in a hand to hand fight. it's very cool in the right setting, but requires a certain level of compliance which will never be the case in an mma competition. they are specifically trained to make any form of compliance the worst possible outcome. especially with grappling and ground arts like wrestling, judo or bjj. typically using your opponents momentum from swinging a sword is what justifies this. something that is far less applicable to a well balanced striker or grappler ( or in 90% of cases in mma, both).
@@andrewclark5835 no it isn't. judo or bjj were developed for hand to hand combat. aikido was developed to defend yourself unarmed against weapon (mainly sword) wielding opponents. which makes it completely unsuited to hand to hand because using a weapon completely changes your center of gravity. also sword swings are much more telegraphed then a punch or kick. both these factors make it easier for an aikidoka to manipulate momentum much easier. without this, against an even half competent combatant, it's genuinely impossible to use effectively. the opens needed just don't exist in hand to hand. jujitsu was similar, until it was taken by the Brazilians and reconstructed for hand to hand. if you don't know... just stop.. why people feel the need to enter convocations they obviously know little about is beyond me.
@@andrewclark5835 kzhead.infonAbkH6we0HU watch it.
@@andrewclark5835 sure bud, that guy in the video. he practiced it for 15 years, and taught it for 5 years. then went on to completely drop it because "he wanted to learn how to really defend himself". he has an entire library of video's demonstrating his aikido, and testing it against mma. mainly being destroyed every time. he was able to apply some of the idea's to mma. but not the actual techniques. he's been practicing bjj, kick boxing and wrestling for about 3 now.
@@jmc2830 Rokas did not make BJJ and Kickboxing work. I suggest you watch Dan the wolfman MMA guy and he has a brown belt in Aikido. Dan made Aikido work in his matches when he was competing. And now he talks about Rokas videos.
The problem is Aikido has been water down.
Really good summary of aikido. You covered the intent of aikido which was great. A lot depends on why someone does a martial art, and keeps doing it. Aikido is fun and has helped me improve in a number of other activities including kayaking, dancing, squash... It also charged my interaction with people generally to be calmer, more connected, which is where its real power comes from. Most people won’t face a physical attack. However, the skills and mindset Freon doing aikido’s can help enormously in calming down situations, as well as improving awareness (and it’s great for learning how not to be hurt when hitting the ground). Most people will have heath issues at some point and won’t face a physical attack - for that reason alone things like aikido, tai chi, qigong are more helpful from a health and well being perspective. However, if I lived in a place where the chances of physical attacks were high then I’d go for something like MMA, BJJ , perhaps judo etc- or move to another area (if that was an option). One thing that gets missed quite often is that practice has to be fun and/or rewarding to put in years of effort, and aikido, despite being very demanding physically, can be great fun and friendship.
I've been a _MINOR_ practitioner of Aikido for 40 years (it has been VERY hard, if not impossible to find dojos where I have lived), but I think this is spot-on. I have always had the attitude that Aikido was primarily for personal development and discipline and secondarily for self-defense. For fighting, I've _always_ coupled it with something like Shinto Ryu as I've always viewed Aikido as a defensive aspect and not in any way an offensive strategy.
And what if you were a MAJOR practitioner ? What is the difference ? Because i'm thinking to sign in for Aikido lessons. Can do that with my 53 years of age ? Oh, and i have a back problem ; Hernia :( When i walk for an half hour my legs start to feel numb :(( Thank you.
@@18Maart1915Gallipoli You'd have to start out very carefully. I'd get the hernia repaired first, but this sort of exercise will probably actually help your back pain.
To inform everyone here in regards to Aikido... Aikido is a highly spiritual art/art of the Samurai. At the highest levels...it is un-matchable in confrontation. You can't fight the universe and it's impossible to fight someone who is able to read your mind... before an attack starts...in pitch darkness or light of day. In it's essence, it's understood only by a chosen few due to the life of dedication to the art. It's impossible to attach yourself as well ___ meaning that you are part of the universe as well, thus you becoming the attacker as you harmonize along with the attack. Also, at this highest level... you're tuned in totally with your surroundings... being able to hear snow flakes hit the ground, able to hear the clouds pass over and being able to since an attacker hiding behind a door, waiting to attack you when you walk in. A master samurai was in an inn eating a bowl of Rice...when three swordsmen/enemies noticed the old master eating his rice...they started to draw their swords on the master...but right before they attacked...there were four flies flying around the rice and the old master took his chopsticks and caught the four flies in a blink of an eye. And when the three attackers saw this...they knew they were in the presence of a master and ran out of the inn, in fear of their life. The old master never looked at them during the whole incident. Yes, it is impossible to fight the universe and impossible to attach something that's not there. Peace!!
@@michaelrucker9677 -- _"Aikido is a highly spiritual art"_ -- This is really what drew me to it in the first place, 35 years ago, and why it holds a special place in my life to this day.
The "weapons" in Aikido are definitely effective. The tanto, jo, and bokken can all be used to injure, maim, or kill.
New subscriber from Philippines. Thank you for sharing this video. Gos bless you.
Aikido is very effective in out maneuvering and crowd manipulation until strikes are thrown or grappling. IF you can gain control before getting struck, you can fare well. And that is most likely why Seagal developed a kick that as it turns out is very effective. Without striking there isn't much of a well rounded arsenal.
It's nice to see a thread where pretty much all of the comments are both positive and relevant. As for aikido's effectiveness...the fact that so much of it's techniques are not allowed in mma is in itself proof of the consideration. Those techniques are not allowed in mma, which is a sport... exactly because of how well they work, how easily an aikido joint lock can break a wrist or elbow, etc.
imo, aikido to me is supplementary stance in order to do some defensive trades against opponent. Aikido makes sense and stole a moment if you'd combine other techniques that makes you do some throws or initiates strikes to do some lure to off guard enemy. aikido is very good in terms of realistic self defense it's just need a right time to use to break enemy
Why HELL would I give you "a thumbs up" BEFORE the video? Really?
One of the biggest problems IMHO in Aikido training is the lack of true sparring and, even in ukemi, your opponent lets you know what kind of attack he is making before he does. Even Segal, when demonstrating a technique, asks his opponent where to hit him so he can show the move.
randori solves this
Aikido is not a aggressive Art. It is a passive Art. It’s is not design to inflict harm. Why control is extremely important. It’s not a sport. It is a way of non violence. To inflict unnecessary harm on another goes against Aikido founding principle. The Way of Harmony. Even though you attack me. I can still defend myself without hurting you. You will hurt yourself.
Bang on comment !.... This is the smart way to defend yourself.
Hey man, I also wish the same. But "passive arts" aren't really that usefull in a real world fist fight. They are incredibly niche in use and it will only work on people weaker than you. Against someone who actually knows how to punch you in the face you wont do shit, much less if he has a weapon, and much MUCH less if he has a gun.
There is much more to Aikido then the physical aspects of the art. As my Shotokan Instructor explained to me about the use of deadly force. I asked him what if you are attacked walking down a dark alley. My Sensei said. A true martial artist would not walk down a dark ally. You don’t go looking for trouble. The reason why I studied Aikido was I wanted to get rid of my aggressive attitude I had acquired studying very aggressive arts. After chasing some guy off the freeway to kick his but. And I realized that’s not what martial arts are really about. I don’t want to make a enemy or injure someone because I think I’m a bad ass. It’s not what we do. And the day that my Spirit made this big Samoan guy who wanted to smash me. Made him walk away. It wasn’t just my physical presence. But my Spiritual Presence. Don’t get me wrong. Aikido is very dangerous in the right hands. Not something to play with as a Novice. But learning how not to be there when the attack comes is a great aspect of the movements of Aikido.
.. Yes , it isn't agressive , but very effective . I think , everyone has to learn it . One of the best sports , ever . It's like talking with bodies . Phantastic moves are in this perfect defence - fighting - sport . Love it so much . ✌
Excellent coverage of aikido. Your last few points about MMA focusing on winning by defeating am opponent &inflicting pain and that being alien to the reason people take up aikido is spot on.
This type of comparison goes back through the ages when comparing a martial art with a sport using martial arts .... How can you correctly assess effectiveness when aikido moves are not allowed.... It's a bit like a Thai boxer told no elbows or knees .... I think aikido does have a place in MMA but possibly more in relation to body positioning , counter-attack and rolling ... I think it's awesome !
Aikido moves are 100% legal in MMA. If it worked, people would be using it.
@@Michael-Moo not really... Small joint manipulation is not allowed for one without getting into the definition of aikido in its modern format
@@Michael-Moo You clearly don't know MMA rules.
Very good points mentioned in this video, particularly overcoming aggressiveness inside yourself. Aikido was based on a fighting school, but was created with a very different purpose. During devastating war in his country, Morihei became convinced that the only way to prevent such horrible violence in the future is to train our mind to avoid violent thoughts. He had a vision that the purpose of training should be not to fight the opponent but to fight violent thoughts. He was convinced that with daily practice it can become like a reflex, and people will be able to avoid violent emotions naturally. And if the entire world practiced Aikido, there would eventually be no violence in this world and would can create “heaven on Earth”, like he explained in his lectures. Unfortunately his students didn’t get this message and continued presenting Aikido as a fighting art, which it is not. If you want to leant fighting style of Aikido, you need to study martial arts that it was based on, Aiki-Jitsu or Daito-Ryu. For the purpose of Aikido, it was not really relevant what martial art it was based on. If Morihei was a boxer, he would create Aikido based on boxing techniques. Movement don’t really matter, as the focus should be on mental state, happiness, and non-violent thoughts.
So rare to find the underlying philosophy behind the very creation of Aikido. Yes, here in my country also most Aikidokas take it to be a fighting or self-defense school. And I have also read so many high rank Aikidokas of the world, mocking those who dare to say Aikido was created for high ideals. God bless your efforts.
@Benji MUSIC Thank you. I think even if you wanted to practice Aikido in the class the way O’Sensei intended, as a practice of the mind, you would not be able to find a school that teaches it this way. Most people and even practitioners are under impression that Aikido is purely for self defence, and they try to practice it that way. Without any mind training. Training your mind on your own is possible, I would guess, but it would be difficult without a good guide. So you can try, but not sure.
На самом деле приёмы в Айки-до очень опасные и могут легко искалечить нападающего, если применять их с такой целью. И движения в Айки-до как раз имеют важное значение.
Can we say click bait
There are some techniques that will work fine but Aikido works better if it is a surprise situation where you have no time to think, get scared or plan anything. The Japanese called it Mushin which means "no-mind". I used Jujinagi when my attacker went for a double leg which was fast but I had no time to think, I just reacted and threw him on his back.
I say with 100% confidence this never ever ever happened.

Good video.👍Aikido has its uses and it's place, but I don't think it's in the octagon. To my knowledge (correct me if I'm wrong) only a handful of techniques have been used in MMA and those were techniques not specific to Aikido, but also found in Ju-Jitsu and other martial arts.
You're right about that. (I begun Aikido in the 1980s)
MMA is for striking, takedowns, and submissions. Kart wheels and Wrist manipulation aren’t going to go very far
@@chief5981 joint manipulation (it goes beyond wrists) is pretty useful *in the real world* , and that yonkyo pressure point can cause severe pain when it's used correctly, shuts down a person's arm. Also no shit it doesn't work in the ring, you can't do like 90% of the throws or joint locks with gloves on. Also, they should change it from MMA to "wresting, muay Thai, bjj, judo, and boxing". It's not mixed martial arts, it's everybody practicing the same couple of styles.
@Bosco7 "Aikido is real fighting and for self defense. Many martial art techniques are not allowed in MMA" Like what in aikido isn't allowed in mma?
@Bosco7 Fingers are allowed in vale tudo. Rarely used because they don't end fights, they just dislocate fingers. Throat strikes are no longer allowed but were back in the days, as were neck strikes. No aikidoka spotted.
Finally at least a video that offers a more balanced and informed review of aikido. Anyway the art is never meant for full-on conflict. In fact it is an art which is focus on training your mind body and spirit towards Non-Conflict. But should conflict still would happen, aikido is meant to “finish” off the aggression or defuse the situation or to achieve back harmony in one or two moves. Not prolonged fights like in MMA competitions.
Как в айкидо нападают на тренировках, так никто не нападает в поединках. Что хорошо делают в айкидо так это падения , самостраховку, кувырки... Много раз с ними участвовал в поединках, не успевают они делать свои захваты и приему, удары пропускают практически все.

The founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba. Was a student of Takeda Sōkaku. Sōkaku was the son of an actual samurai of the Takeda samurai clan.
ALL martial arts have something to offer! Great video...
The original form of Aikido had many throws, like Judo. They were removed, because most of them were designed to make impossible a safe landing (they would throw you to broke your neck, shoulder, etc). Now, my opinion about effectiveness. Traditional martial arts were developed in different times of what we know today: wars, murder, rape were common things (in a greater number). You either developed a criminal instinct and no hesitation, either you ended up dead. Hesitation meant death. To make traditional martial arts work you must have no hesitation, but having a ''schizoid'' behavior, like the samurai did (which at that time was the norm), based on nowdays psychology, is socially unacceptable today. We were shaped to hesitate, to prudence by the modern society. In the older form of Aikido, Aikijujutsu, you always have a finishing move (you kill the opponent). I'm not trying to sell you mumbo jumbo about how deadly Aikido/Aikijujutsu was, the one killing the enemy was not the art, but the individual and the ''no hesitation'' philosophy/mindset. A martial art is nothing else than ritualised violence. Humans need ritual. That's how we function as a society.
True martial arts at the highest level, means long healthy life. Aikido is a powerful martial art, and seeing how old the founders are, makes it a powerful tool in longevity. 106 year old tai chi master walks up and down 4 flights of stairs every day, eats his bowl of rice and remembers and converses with his friends. Long life, sharp mind, healthy body. That determines a great martial art. Those methods that promote longevity are imitated.
That's bullshit. War, rape and whatever still exist today just like thousands of years ago. Traditional Martial Arts lost they strength when weakass with western put their hands on it. People where practicing those arts for thousands years now suddenly is to dangerous and need to change gtfoh.
then , ancient days self defence were mostly armed. empty hand were of last resort.
It's the other way around. Judo removed throws that Aikido retained. Mostly because those throws put pressure on joints (eg zenponage) so couldn't be used in competition, but also because some Judo throws have developed for use without armour (aikido mostly developed for armoured and armed people). Of course leg sweeps are not in Aikido but are in Judo. Mostly because Aikijitsu was taught to Imperial Guard, and using feet was unseemly.
@@uberdonkey9721 just another westerner who doesn't know what is talking about. Jigaro Kano didn't remove anything beside punch and kick from Jiu-jitsu. The idea of Judo as sport was created by white men. Everything white men put their hands on, see money on it, they change and destroy it. Kano didn't remove, this so called, dangerous techniques. Dojos outside the Western world still use all those removed techniques. And Zenpo Nage just means "forward throwing". How is this removed when there still many many forward throw techniques? And it isn't that dangerous at all. Newaza is way more dangerous.
I'd like to see an old school Aiki Jujitsu for comparison. Though these older Ryu's were developed around the sword. So unless you do virtual reality combat with weapons. Aikido is more Centrifugal. Old school is more Intrapedal.
I know the centrifugal tenkan, but what is 'intrapedal'?
Exactly. The only one with a Brain 🧠.
I learned distancing, movement, and comfort while working in close. Also, the value of a good uke.
I think Aikido is useful when you want to avoid being hit by an opponent, but its lack of agressive techniques makes it vulnerable many times agains explossive martial arts as Muay Thai, Boxing or Karate. It is good to avoid being hit or damaged, I mean it is the most important thing. But, that is just half of what we should do on a street fight against someone who tries to damage us repeteadly.
I want to thank you, very educational. I had googled the founder before, made me think, of when I was seven, 1967, and my brother Ray he was a year older. He once came home, from the library, with a book 2 inches thick, jiu jitsu, and that would be one of many styles, I would dabble in. But this is truly, one of the most beautiful things I've seen, and being a fan of Steven seagal, who I met one time, but the philosophy... behind it all, is what I thank you, for helping me understand. Now it makes all the sense in the world, on why it would not be good in MMA. For it would go against, the true meaning, behind this art, fascinating. Love it, hope one day to take some real classes, beyond what I study on my own.
No kidding ! Aïkido is like a dance...never find a real fighting ! Just a simulation...the couch believe that he is the master undefeated man!
Nice video. I my self practice Aikido and it's like you said. The teaching is defensive and respectful against a "enemy". In a street fight/MAA it can be a side skill to know.
Rogan is correct about Aikido. It is an art that only works on compliant partners. In short, it is a great art to help you get beat up by a middle school wrestler.
Aikido is a very interesting thing. It was created in japan so it was made to defended yourself against an opponent who used other traditional east asian fighting styles. If you practise Aikido on Master level it is very effective in that special kind of situations. Especially when the defender is smaler and weaker than the aggressor. But a well trained street fighter, MMA or Krav Marga fightet for example can knock out an Aikido fighter in seconds.
Yeah I was just going to say, I trained jiu jitsu and muay Thai and I beat an aikido moron in a tournament in like 20 seconds. It might work for body movement and inertia but it doesn't stop punches 🤣
@@hammerlane3871 Judging about it by looking at only one person and one situation is not a right way to go. Yes. I would agree that it doesn't stop punches. 100% true. But the idea of aikido is not to stop the punch, but to dodge it. I am in aikido for 20 years now. Approximately 10, 11 years ago, I had several situations to spar with kickboxers, karatekas and mma fighters (long year practitioners) and was able to deflect a punch or a kick in 90% of situations. The biggest problem was that I didn't know how to attack. I was in a situation to dodge a punch or kick and then feel quite helpless while looking at a guy who was a bloody impenetrable fortress. I learned how to properly spar, with attacks, grips etc, when I got myself involved in karate and jiu jitsu (Japanese one). And that's the biggest problem with aikido. Well trained aikidokas against well trained mma fighters, karatekas etc. will never allow themselves to ''stop'' the punch. They will dodge. And that's it. Without implementing it in other material arts it really is all you can do.
@@hammerlane3871 Good puch can be a problem. Also I wonder if you fight you start fighting and all your techniques are only as good as you have internalized them. So in this sense, there could ba a situation that someone with "no" training could beat someone with it. Still you practice to learn something and for fun. effects are something else in a way.
Ikkyo Aikido was taught at my LEO academy at Lackland AFB in the early 90's. Wrist locks, arm bars and throws were emphasized. Be wary of someone who is able to secure three or more digits on your hands😏
3 or more digits... sounds like Wally Jay's Small Circle Ju-Jitsu.
I did a off shoot of tomiki AI kido it was very effective AMD different taught to move to off balence the person and throw them we trained with resistance just move and relax
Aikido is a powerful martial art
Aikido is simply not a combat system. It works very well with another practitioner of Aikido, but doesn't work in dealing with a combat system. It is a good lifestyle for a passive person to stay in shape with. The thing to remember is in sparing competitions or even professional fights like MMA there are rules. There are no rules in combat or a street fight.
it looks like you don't know anything about aikido. aikido can help protect you, regardless of the style of the attacker. but keep in mind that in the video said that in mma you can't hold/grab the opponent's gloves. so, how you suppose to do an aikido technique with that rule?! But in real life you can grab someone's fist/hand without restrictions or without losing points. and keep in mind that authentic aikido works with energy, not force. so, it doesn't matter that your opponent might be a little taller or heavier.
I stop a fight of 3v1 with wrist control and throws. Can’t beat up what you can’t hit, can’t hit what’s throwing you.

Aikido is a great way to learn basic Japanese Martial Arts. But once you go through Aikido you should go into Judo or Jiu Jitsu. Aikido gives you a great sense of the Ukemi you need in Judo and Jiu Jitsu.

The man who created Aikido was already a martial arts master. Aikido was created as a less lethal alternative to other forms of self defense. When people criticize it effectiveness they lack understanding of it's real purpose. It also can be said that a true experienced martial artist can easily add lethal techniques into their Aikido at any time since all martial arts can be blended together.
Ueshiba dont created aikido , he adapted daytoriu that he learned during years with Sokaku Takeda.
@@johnykolk1414 i get what you are saying, but because what he had adapted was not strictly with the Jujitsu curriculum it was then named Aikido to avoid confusion with the traditional style. That is why they said he created it. Technically we could say that all the founders of these systems didn't create anything. Since they learned from someone else.
aikido was designed to disarm and defend against weapons. it's from a time were most wore a weapon of some sort. if you think about it, it's far easier to manipulate the momentum of someone holding/swinging a weapon then it is to do the same to someone only having to balance their own body weight. without that extra weight to manipulate, it's requires a certain level of compliance or it just doesn't work. against a trained fighter, aikido is useless. it might help you against a novice, but that's it. even masters of aikido admit it isn't suited to compete with modern martial arts. mma has basically made all other art's obsolete. in terms of combat and self defense. they obviously still have health and psychological benefit's. but will never match up to mma mainly because it's taken the best parts of many arts, while discarding whatever doesn't work. considering not even a single competitive mma fighter even slightly incorporates aikido into their style, that should tell you all you need to know.
Yes. I know several Aikdo techniques that could easily kill someone
And?...What's your point?...The fact remains that aikido techniques do not work on trained strikers.Aikido relies to much on lunging attacks.It works on fools who don't know better but they aren't the dangerous ones.A seasoned striker is dangerous.If they get on top of you they can very well punch you intona coma or worse.A seasoned striker will not lunge at his opponent.He will systematically beat the aikidoka's face to a pulp with rapid fire combinations that an aikidoka just isn't prepared for....Aikido lives in a make believe world where everyone throws one terrible attack (shomenuchi for example)and the Nage throws everyone around.....It's not based in reality.
Put them both in the rings……WTF?!?
There's an obvious reason why it's called MMA. this simply means that if you are an expert of only one discipline, sure you may win in few competitions inside the cage, but eventually you will collect more losses as you continue and will never become a champion in MMA. You have to equip yourself with various martial arts if you desire to climb to the top of the champions echelon. All types of valid and official martial arts will work in MMA, however, you've gotta carry at least several of those to be very effective that can push you up in par with the current champions. Of course, dedication, discipline, maturity, and IQ play a great role on top of your skillset.
Yo siempre he distinguido entre dos tipos de Artes Marciales: las de agarres y las de golpeo. No se pueden comparar porque son objetivos diferentes. Lógicamente en una pelea MMA contra un Aikidoka, tiene mucha más ventaja un luchador de MMA porque golpea de forma firme y sin desequilibrar, por lo que imposibilita al aikidoka a realizar ninguna técnica. Ahora bien, si hay agarre ya es diferente y aún así tendría mis dudas, ya que el Aikidoka no agarra el brazo con la confianza de que el oponente no se va a soltar... como defensa al Aikido le veo flojo en general.
El flojo es el practicante no el Aikido
Sin embargo, como ataque en clandestino veo mucho potencial en Aikido. Es que estamos hablando de dos sistemas diferentes. El MMA u otros artes marciales de golpeo como taekwondo o kickboxing son sistemas de duelo. Es decir, medirse con alguien. En cambio, en Aikido no se trata de medirse con nadie, sino 'colaborar con la energía' del compañero para no lastimarse. No es un deporte para nada. No hay la intención de competir con nadie. Por eso no se puede comparar.
Can you upload a video about boxing
I used to practice Iwana Ryu style for some time, and was pleased that half of the time was dedicated to practice techniques with bokken and jo. So I can defend myself with a wishmob.
An Aikido practitioner would be handicapped in the ring but against thugs on the street, I think its quite effective.
Michael jai White had 7 black belt in Tae kwan Do, Tan soo do, wushu, shoto kan, kobudo, Goju Ryu, kyokushin.
While I agree that aikido is orchestrated at best, tenshin aikido is a little different and a person not familiar with taking ukemi properly would get their fucking head taken off if someone was to pull off irimi nage from some dumb ass punch thrown at them
What you see as orchestrated is display stuff and learning. Tomiki's variation of aikido involved judo style competition. Check out Tomiki Aikido Randori. The toshu randori is best to watch, tanto randori has some weird rules that leave even practitioners wondering what the fuck is going on. I studied Tomiki aikido, also boxed and used to compete in open kickboxing competitions. I regularly trained and sparred with MMA fighters. The point to aikido is that you learn that nice gentle stuff because those are the blueprints you will use as you take the path of your choice. I'll be honest, more aikido senseis need to remember that, because aikido is producing a generation of half trained students who think that they're going to gently take out 3 attackers. I was lucky, my sensei is old school.
I'm very familiar with aikido and know who and what Tomiki is ...and I stand by my statement that Tenshin is still different.....
@@tonyhudson8235 check out Lenny sly

@@MichaelHoward-td9qm Ok
Cool footage :) The problems are: 1. Unless pure Aikido is tested in an actual MMA cage, there's no legitimate way to say it can work in MMA, *especially* because 2. Aikido is a cooperative art, more like choreographed gymnastics or a dance than it is an actual *martial* art. Ueshiba's original aikido was much different - he required a 3rd dan jujitsu minimum, people who were already strong in combat martial arts. But today's non-competitive aikido practicioners who have never actually sparred with anyone - no way, unless they're already experts in a real combat art.
This. Aikido might as well be a dance routine.
@@jakemonster001 agreed. But it's very challenging in terms of learning how to fall that fluently all those different ways without hurting yourself. That's a real skill. But you're right, in that form it's not a combat art.
@@TheThinkersBible Yeah, also agreed. It’s akin to pro wrestling concerning having to learn how to fall properly and not kill each other also.
@@jakemonster001 really good comparison, agreed.
I think that the fact that there are no high level MMA fighters who style themselves Aikido practitioners says it all. Plenty of BJJ, Muay Thai, wrestlers, "strikers", various Karate schools, Sambo etc. The proof is in the pudding. A combination of a striking/kick boxing style with some grappling/submission discipline is essential for success in MMA. A pure Aikido practitioner would get owned.
Aikido does not work in real life. It only works if the person is going along with it. It also requires people to just let you have hand control,u less your significantly stronger or larger than your opponent they are not gonna just let your have their arms or hand
Interesting points of view, especially the point that Aikidokas wouldn't get into the cage due to their philosophy of not harming the opponent if ever possible.
Let a master of Aikido do all the deadly Aikido techiniques to MMA and lets see whats gonna happen
Exactly!! In MMA using pressure points is banned.Allow a full blown master of Aikido with an MMA fighter and allowing the Aikido master use all arsenal, the fight will be over fast. Allowing the use of pressure points will immobilize the MMA fighter in seconds. In Aikido, the more aggressive the fighter, the more it will be used against them. So when MMA removes and bans all use of pressure points, in essence it is like making a boxer fight with one hand while his opponent boxes with two hands.

As the commentator suggested, as most of the fundamental techniques of Aikido are banned in MMA, it would be a poor fit.

I love both equally. MMA is great in the octagon. Aikido is great coupled with other martial arts. Where dedication and discipline are exercised, great warriors emerge. Aikido is very defensive. MMA is both offensive and defensive. Both are great in different situations.
Aikido and jiujitsu is perfect if you don't want too knock down people. You have the possibility/choice to control. And thus it's much healthier too excercise.
Since wrist blocks are forbiden in mma, they are hand tying aikido tools. That's not fair for aikido.
I used to do combat Hapkido, a much better version of Aikido. Combat Hapkido is the best martial art I did. And I have been doing Tae Kwon do, Wing Chun, Russian Systema and Thai box. Combat Hapkido was the most complete, especially for personal defence from multiple attackers, knife and wapons. But, as a personal defence combat style, you train to defend a few minutes attack. In MMA you train to be a tiger for 25 long minutes. MMA fighter's got 99% chance to win against a Hapkido/Aikido fighters. Thanks for the video . Big hug from Sardinia ❤️
I forgot something. I also tried Aikido for one lesson. I left the class before the end! It was fake BS! I had to pretend to punch , pretend to fall and pretend my ass. Wtf?!! In Combat Hapkido nothing is fake. U make a mistake,I get a punch on your face. And if you don't tap your arm/leg goes "krunch". Also Aikido is only for defence, so you always wait for them to move. Hapkido has lots of very nasty attacks, most of them based on bone fractures, fingers in the eyes/throat and use of wapons like keys,pens, belts and real wapons. My Master was around his 70s at the time. It was crazy how a 70 years old person could be so freaking fast,strong and smart at the same time. He just looked like an old man ,in reality he was a bad ass human wapon.
Can you please send me videos of the banned moves in mma. Everyone always talks about banned moves like street fighters. In reality if you legalize headbuts etc the mma fighters will just get more effective and those silly banned moves will mean nothing.
I need to learn Aikido, also...
In order to impress in aikido, aikido ka must significantly shorten its movements in techniques, and at the same time use well-accurate atemi, strikes, at sensitive points on a person. Then it is good and brings good results. I've been doing aikido for 40 years and I know that the traditional approach in techniques, nothing can be done to win.
Aikido works when your opponent cooperates...

Aikido is not an offensive but a defensive skill that is mostly used in the training of special military and police units. It is totally stupid to compare aikido with mma.
Son dos Artes marciales, totalmente distintas, una busca hacer daño por naturaleza, mientras la otra intenta evitar hacerlo.
Aikido and the like are best suited for Bouncers, Door Men and Law enforcement that subdue an opponant while avoiding lawsuits. That being said I trained in mma and my best friend did hapkido for three years. At first I would easily dominate the sparring but there came a point at which I realized that if he grabbed ahold of me I was about to be permanantly injured if he so chose.
The problem with all the stuff through 5:40 is that it is all scripted. attacker and defender know exactly what will happen.
MMA is brutality, Aikido was born in a very hard time: after the atomic bomb. Aikido research peace and is against violence

The most important aspect of aikido is the jumping around and doing cartwheel and tumbling movements around the other guy safely.
Do you know the biggest thing is once you figure out how to hurt people it’s easy no matter what you do and a lot of the moves are in aikido I’m just flashy him it really won’t work very well but the concept if you understand that does work no matter what you do.
No hay lugar a discusión. He practicado Aikido con todos los maestros posibles famosos a nivel mundial por más de 22 años, incluso con alumnos de seven Seagal y sólo puedo decir que ni loco me pelearía jamás con un luchador de MMA, porque ellos pelean de verdad, no es el caso del Aikido, ni siquiera se enseña como arte marcial. Son muy muy escasos los maestros que suelen enseñar de verdad Aikido con el sentido práctico de la defensa personal. El MMA es un combate real y peligroso. Si pensáis que estudiando aikido os vais a poder enfrentar a cualquier persona estáis muy muy equivocados. El aikido no sirve para defenderse repito: NO SIRVE PARA DEFENSA, a menos que seas muy muy bueno, hayas entrenado de forma que te partan la cara más de una vez y que el entrenamiento sea completamente real, y eso jamás se suele dar.

Stephen Segal was recently interviewed by Jesse Endkamp, a karate teacher, with a KZhead channel. Segal said that his aikido is essentially offensive, and that offense is the best defense.
This is a martial art that not only disables the foes force while simultaneously disarming there confidence using further potential attacks be done with there now frustrated forced movements that will eventually bend there will to considered a forced stop to continue to attack. Submit to reserve or humiliation that humbles opponent.
The most important move in aikido is the time out
There are people trying to bring it back to its roots as a fighting art, some with success. You can find some video's on the net. Aikido practitioners were forced to realize the style had gone too far from being a fighting style. Fortunately it's root is a fighting method.
You should apply the pre world war Aikido, it will stop MmA.Brutal.Assassins type of Aikido!

It is all very simple. Things ALWAYS seem to work when an "attacker" does NOT actually attack, but tries to adapt to the game of the master on duty. The real attackers are tough, unpredictable, violent, they are not your game but they try to destroy this game. Just try putting one of these Alikido Masters in front of an average Thai Box fighter. It doesn't even have to be a monster then. Suddenly the Aikido guy will not throw anyone with acility at all and soon Ko will go down. Point.
