HIGH IMPACT AIKIDO

Purple Dragon High Impact Aikido is a martial art program that combines the original art of Aikido which arose from Japanese traditions and was invented by Morihei Ueshiba (1883-1969). High Impact Aikido brings together the philosopy and realism that Aikido is very adaptable. Professor Don Jacob has taught Aikido principles for decades through his own system of martial arts called Don Jitsu Ryu. In the Aikido program at Purple Dragon we focus on techiniques which are unique in that they depend on controlling the opponent and neutralizing his attack by using a combination of leverages, immobilization techniques and throws designed to work in a circular fashion.In this martial art there is no direct opposition or blocking, all techniques are designed to work in the direction of the attack of the opponent. High Impact Aikido is adaptable and by any means necessary the use of striking, kicking,etc can be brought in if it is necessary to survive. The effectiveness of the techniques is not dependent on your strength but ones ability to step aside from the line of attack, and appropriately grasp the opponent to throw him off balance. When the techniques are performed with precision and skill, they allow one to be able to deal with a much bigger and stronger opponent. High Impact Aikido focuses on techniuqes with and without weapons. It is being sought at our schools worldwide by Law Enforcement agencies that need to learn to confront without excessive force but still have a fighting chance of their own personal survival.
