Tapondo is *******ized "form" of Aikido taught by a group in the Philippines. They claim it's "street effective" aikido, but it's simply a hideous collection of poorly executed Aikido techniques.

Before I studied Aikido, I had the misfortune for studying Tapondo, thinking it was aikido or even an improvement on it but it turned out to be just another McDojo.
