Applied Aikido

Coaching staff

“A path of a thousand li starts with a single step” – Lao Ji. You will honor us if you decide to take this step together.

Applied Aikido is a Serbian self-defense complex. This complex combines bunch of defensive techniques against various attacks of one or multiple assailants. The main feature of the Applied aikido lies in unique conjunction of opponent immobilization methods and neutralization of aggression in the very beginning of the conflict.

We teach how to dispel the aggression dealing no physical damage to the assailant. Continuous practice helps apprentices react to real life situations properly and develop self-confidence and cold-blooded decisionmaking in any kind of circumstances.

Workout Concept

Physical condition is one of the main technique development factors. It doesn’t matter how fit you are at the beginning of the classes. We pay close attention to all the physical skills you need to progress, including strength, velocity, movement, stamina, balance and especially coordination. Therefore continuous practice of Applied Aikido influences both adults’ and children’s physical skills positively. Development proceeds considering individual apprentice’s features, initial physical condition, body constitution, health status etc.

Modern lifestyle is often implies lack of physical activity, hence many related disorders happen to occur. This fact has become a fundamental basis of our workout concept, which focuses not only on fighting techniques, but also pays special attention to the widely spread physical activity.

Applied Aikido is about:

• Ideally dosed physical activity for each and every apprentice considering their features;
• Increasing level of self-confidence and acquiring ability to control the assailant through studying and practicing self-defense techniques.

Origin

Our workout concept was formed due to master’s Radoiza Spasovich perennial experience. Being an outstanding martial arts expert, he synergized his extensive experience into Applied Aikido concept.

Master Radoiza Spasovich possesses Black Belt 9th dan of Real Aikido. Radoiza is of the favorite apprentices of Lubomir Vracharevich, who invented Real Aikido Soke. Spasovich conducted over 100 inner and international seminars and has been working in this industry for 30 years, 25 of them as Lubomir Vracharevich’s personal assistant. Master Radoiza Spasovich is a member of an IAAF Hall of Fame. Back in 2003 he was awarded as a “Mentor of the Year” on the annual congress in the USA.

You will honor us if you decide to discover Applied Aikido for yourself. And we will be pleased to share knowledge and skills while moving through this path with you.
