Aiki, the unbalancing element of the martial arts of Aikido and Aikijujutsu, is the least understood aspect of these arts. Generally, descriptions of Aiki vary from the mystical to vague concepts like blending with the attacker's energy. This book gives a meaningful and practical bio-mechanical definition of Aiki. This description of Aiki clearly differentiates it from the unbalancing methods used in the associated martial arts of Judo, Jujutsu and Wrestling. Using this definition, Aiki can be applied in three fundamental forms. For each form, a detailed description of how Aiki is applied is given and is supplemented with demonstrations, so that the reader can experience the unbalancing effect of Aiki. Examples are described in detail, showing how each form of Aiki is applied in the techniques of Aikido and Aikijujutsu. The explanation of Aiki given here unifies the arts of Aikido and Aikijujutsu. Throughout the book, the ideas discussed are supported with illustrated diagrams. The Principle of Aiki described in this book has been used to analyse the unbalancing element of Aikido and Aikijujutsu techniques recorded on Youtube by well known Aikido and Aikijujutsu Sensei. This supporting material is available on the author's website aiki.simdif.com.

Eyza Aikijutsu is a martial art reduced to its core: easy-to-learn strikes, kicks, and joint-locks, all focused on efficacy. It is based on the Japanese martial art Aikido.There have been many evolutions within modern Aikido, with brilliant minds reforming its martial arts techniques. However, these reforms have all maintained the same principles, which kept the martial art of Aiki from becoming truly effective. An evolution of Aikido is not enough, it needs a revolution.I discarded these principles and replaced them with new ones. With the core character of this martial art fundamentally different and no longer resembling Aikido, I have given the result of this process a new name: Eyza Aikijutsu.Eyza Aikijutsu is geared towards Aikido practitioners and self-defense interested individuals who wish to practice an art which is rougher than Aikido, but less hard on the body than MMA or boxing, which have the risk of brain trauma, and just as practical as Krav Maga, but more intricate.
