Aikido is considered a gentle art, where you are utilizing the opponents strength and energy and simply redirecting them through.
Hapkido has lots of joint locks and throws similar to those found in Aikido, but also has lots of kicks and punches.
I'm not too familiar with JJ, but the Brazilian version of JJ involves a lot of grappling and submission rather than kicking and punching. |
Come to think of it... Do we have an Aikido or Harpiko guy on the forums?
