Aikido is called the martial art of harmony. But make no mistake about it, it's not considered harmonious because there are no tournaments, or because the techniques are done together with a partner without offering resistance, nor even because there is no importance placed on becoming physically strong. In fact, it's because the techniques themselves, which are as sharp as a real sword, are realized through harmony.
