Aikido Techniques come from ancient Japanese Jiu-Jitsu. Jiu-Jitsu was and still is used in combat. The founder of Aikido, Morihei Ueshiba wanted to make the techniques more flowing and less lethal. The goal of Aikido is to defeat your opponent without injury to you or the attacker. Most of the techniques in Aikido can be damaging and sometimes fatal because you are manipulating small joints in the human body to move an opponent without or nearly no strength at all. The goal is not to break bones or to kill however because you are manipulating smaller joints to move a bigger person, you can hurt them easily however it is not the goal of Aikido.

Seagal began his adult life as an aikido instructor in Japan, and is currently a 7th dan in aikido. He is considered the first foreigner to ever own and operate an aikido dojo in Japan.
Let me remind you that past 6th dan, you do not get another dan by studing the art. The 7th dan and forth, is presented to the person by it's contribution to the art. Seagal gave a contribution to Aikido and some masters to the art had not reach the 7th dan.

No, it is a Martial Art focused on defence, and harmony with your attacker.
While it does let you get the upper hand over your opponent, most of the techniques learned are arm locks/ breaks, or throws.
You could use the knowledge from Aikido to kill someone, but there are no 'killing moves' taught in Aikido.

aikido dai suki desu (previous answer)
While this may fly in conversational Japanese, the correct way to say it would be "Aikido ga dai suki desu" 合気道が大好きです。The "ga" is the proper way to connect the verb "to like" with the think you like (aikido) and desu wraps it all up.

Depending on how you view what "Aikido" actually is, it is a Martial Art, it is a way of life, and it also contains spiritual things in it as well. Doing physical techniques requires a partner. People actually do "Aikido" on a daily basis, they just dont know it. Many of every day things that people do like drive a car, open doors, and drinking from a glass are movements which are found in Aikido. Primarily in Yoshinkan style of Aikido, there are fundamental movements called "Kihon Dosa". These movements can be done by yourself and they can be viewed on sites like youtube.com . You can practice Aikido Stretches and other movements by yourself, but to learn the techniques, there is no better place than a Dojo itself.

The exact date of when it was founded is not clearly known. Some will claim a specific date however nobody knows for sure. Generally, Morihei Ueshiba trained in martial arts for many years. Aikido and Ancient Japanese Jiu-Jitsu go almost hand in hand. Japanese Jiu-Jitsu is considered the Grandfather of Aikido. Many of the techniques involve manipulation of joints to move a bigger person without the use of strength. Aikido is believed to have been started in the 1920's and was developed further in the 1930's. Aikido was eventually spread to the rest of the world starting in the 1940's and 1950's by several of Ueshiba's students.

Nobody knows the exact age of how old Ueshiba was when he "created" Aikido. The term "Aikido" became the official name of the art in 1942 but was called Aikibudo prior to that time. Ueshiba was said to have developed the art in between the 1920's and 30's. That would put his age in the 30's to 40's. He was a very devout student of martial arts and took his time developing Aikido.

That depends upon why you want to study Aikido. In theory, all styles of Aikido should operate from the same set of basic principles. There are just different ways to study those principles and determine which principles to place emphasis on. Your best bet is to visit several schools and find the one that YOU are most comfortable with.

Aikido was designed so that both the attacker/enemy and the person defending do not get hurt during a conflict. Aikido is a way to resolve conflict as soft and peaceful as possible. Just like any art, once the student knows the art, they also have control over how much they apply a control or lock on a person. Many of the Aikido techniques can be deadly however they are not practiced that way. The level of punishment that you put upon a person is up to you once you know the technique.
