Freelance: Aikido







Dr. Scott Vogel teaches Aikido Tuesday night at the Wellness Central Fitness in Mount Pleasant. Aikido is a spiritual discipline and self-defense method that uses grappling, throws, and non-resistance to debilitate opponents.

I would describe Aikido as mix between Tai Chi and Judo. There is a lot of slow fluid movement along with throws and grappling. From watching the practice there is a lot of mental discipline and cognitive thought in every movement.
