Being an aikido instructor is more than just teaching martial arts and passing your talent and moves to others. It’s really about adapting a spiritual life. Taking his Steven Seagal’s life under the spotlight, it’s hard to see that spirituality, but back in the days, martial arts was everything for the young artist.
Unlike his fellow action film actors, Bruce Lee, Jean-Claude Van Damme or even Chuck Norris, who mainly practiced offense, Seagal’s aikido style focused on defense, self-control and respect.
