I was just wondering weither anyone knows anything about Aikido and Chinese martial arts?
I have seen some books published about it. But as this is the chinese martial arts section I was wondering what chinese arts could have effected Aikido. As O Sensei (Morihei Ueshiba) went to China. And it has been said that he fort against many opponents there. But there was never any doumentation of what happpen between them.
I was thinking that I could have been effected by White Crane, Hsing I, Pa Gua and Tai Chi.

Sensei Ueshiba studied Baguazhang for some time, which is a basis for Aikido. I believe he studied Gong Ting and Jiu Long, one made for bodyguards, the other for imperial soldiers. Aikido bears a striking resemblance to the Nei Chia/Nei Kung, the internal arts of China.
Taijiquan (Tai Chi Chuan)
Baguazhang (Pa Kua Chang)
Xingyiquan (Hsing I Chuan)
Maybe ChangWuJi can elaborate on this a bit.
Prof. Chang? Your input?

| This is kind of off topic, but Is ki emphasized a lot in aikido? Like when you throw your opponent, do you also use ki or is it just a small part of aikido? |

It is all Ki. The basis idea is the mosts of Jujutsu (Daito Ryu), with a large Ki (chi) element. My style of Aikido, Ki Aikido as the name my suggest has a considerable amount of ki exercises designed to focus it through ones oppents.
 -: do you have a name? Just a digretion.
yes I also believe that O Sensei was quite clearly influenced by the internal arts. But also but the Japense Samuari arts.
So what Chinese arts do you peple study. I have a great deal of resepct for them. Many of my friends study them and they are great to train and spar with.

I study some Shuai Chiao. Greeat for striking and grappling both, and fun, too.
Btw, yes, I have a real name. But a rose by any other name is still fragrant, no?

On other forums, I'm Frying Mantis (I'm infamous on shaolinwolf.com). But I decided : - ) - : would be cool for a change.

Studying for 11 years now. And yeah, you can call me Frying or anything you want. On shaolinwolf.com, they call me everything from Small Fry to Frying Ant *. All in good fun, though.
