"realistic aikido"? Do you mean aikijujutsu? Either way it's nice to know another warrior monk.

    No, it's a separate school - I found links here and here.

    The school was founded by a guy from Serbia, and it's much more in-your-face than the Aikido I'm used to. Near to no ukemi, holds way beyond the point of pain, and most of the movement is straight into the attacker instead of going out of the line of the attack.

    As I said, I didn't like it.
