I don't agree with much of this. While he tried to make aikido 'non-violent' it wasn't that he felt it was martially ineffective, nor did his original students. Gozo Shiodo, for example, would go around to gangs and challenge one of their members. The training also wasn't soft. Ueshiba himself used to head-butt a wall every morning. You'll see videos of Saito, Kotier etc doing very strenuous and repetitive bokken training in the forests (as was typical of main sword schools). Aikido in no way is passive, but incorporates the concept of yin and yang (as many other martial arts do). Indeed, when Henry Kono (another Ueshiba Japanese student) asked "why can't we do what you do?' Ueshiba replied 'you don't understand yin and yang'. The whole problem is that many senseis now assume it is passive. I trained for around 20 years, and after around 5 years of training, when I had to move to a new location, I decided I'd just learn and not teach. Unfortunately what I saw was (i) people doing 'soft' aikido whereby they were just walking around with partners (ii) people doing 'hard' aikido, where they focused on the movement of the arms and wrists and on teaching sets of techniques. Really aikido is (i) a mechanistic method of moving the body to ensure where you apply force it cannot easily be resisted (ii) training instinctive reactions (iii) being able to move fluidly between different techniques such that really there isn't seperate techniques (they arise from different body positions or use of force from uke) (iv) develop for action against one surprise strike (thus well adapted to drunken brawls, or to attacks with weapons. This is why it is poor in MMA.. people can expect something and they are not fully committed to a strike as they would be with a drunken haymaker or sudden stab (esp with a ranged weapon such as sword or spear).

The same thing happened to Tai Chi Chuan. I cannot say to what extent the courses were parallel. Mike

To be honest, if you go through martial art program for police and special forces, there is nothing looks like MMA bars and locks. Techniques excel at cage fighting are most likely unreasonable in street fighting. I always ask those "proud" MMA advocators, what do you supposed to do when there are 2 opponents; when they have weapons and you don't. They never get to anything close to an answer. Just to be clear, cage fighting still works excellently in one to one empty-handed combat.

I thought it was his son that changed it into a dance form poorly imitating the most difficult form of Daito Ryu - aiki no jutsu.

@@user-uv6ev5to1u it’s just my opinion, but I think you’re correct. The son was nowhere near as talented as his father and accelerated the pace of distancing most modern aikido from its martial routes. But you see that also happening with O Sensei. For example, in aikido you see a technique known as ikkyo or ikkajo performed from many scenarios (e.g. wrist grab, shomenuchi -vertical strike to head, or yokomenuchi - side strike to head). In the original form this was only performed from a shomenuchi attack when the attacker had a katana. In the aikido version the opponent is taken off balance and led to the floor. In the original version the opponent is smashed in the face, then stabbed with a tanto (knife) through the rib cage, then kicked in the same area for good measure, followed up by a fatal cut to the neck or spinal cord.
