Dynamic Aikido Paperback – August 16, 2013

This is an excellent pictorial guide for the serious Aikidoka. The explanations and the pictures are great. Shioda Sensei explains his personal approach to Aikido, and it shows that he is a true master, I highly recommend this book.

Shipped on time, book was in that perfect broken in condition not too roughed up. Its great, had this book before and someone stole it, I had to replace it it's that good.

My husband has been a student of Aikido for 21 years. He studies under Carmen Pelusi Shihan of Eight Winds Aikido Society. He loves anything Aikido.

I bought this book a long time ago not knowing if it was good or not. At the time I was not practicing Aikido,but I always wanted to learn something about it. I had a few years of experience in other martial arts. I think this is a good book. The pictures show fairly good the techniques. Some angle may be confusing if you are not a martial artist, but for the most part you can understand the purpose of each technique. A book will never replace a Sensei but is a good guide. I highly recommend it, because of the pictures display on each technique. The general information on Aikido history is pretty good too. Bare in mind like other have said that some schools of Aikido may do some things a little different, but in theory everything is the same. I also bought Shioda Sensei latest book that should tell you how much I liked this one.I now practice Aikido and appreciate better having bought the book years ago. I hope this helps.

This book is very informative and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for the basics in aikido.

My husband is currently taking Aikido, and his Sensei recommended this book. I ordered it and it came pronto. My husband is very happy with it.

wife loved it.

Good read
