Aikido: O’Sensei’s Sublime Synthesis, Vol. 1
The content in this special two-volume Via Media anthology details the many facets of aikido as it was formulated by Morihei Ueshiba (1883–1969)—O-Sensei, the great teacher. Each chapter in this Via Media book contributes to a piece of the aikido puzzle by providing historical details, insightful technical drills (bare handed and with weapons), and components that have flavored this art with a spiritual essence.
