Aikido is a Japanese martial art that originated from the teachings of O Sensei Morihei Ueshiba's Aikijujitsu, the father of modern Aikido. Morihei Ueshiba O Sensei The Founder of Aikido retired in a small farming town of Iwama after WWII. There he refined Aiki Jujutsu into a more harmonious martial art that we now today call Aikido.
In Iwama Morihiro Saito Sensei studied and served O Sensei, and learned the Aikido of Ueshiba. Today we call this Aikido, Iwama Aikido or Iwama Ryu. Thus, it is said that Ueshiba Aikido was actually a way of life for both Aikido Master, and the people he taught it to.
