Just recently I've stumbled across the meaning of mcdojo and that made me rethink about when I was around 10 y.o. and used to go to an Aikido dojo. I remember little honestly, but all I can remember was that sparring wasn't that much frequent, especially for low ranked kids, and that there were double-colored belts (I remember having a yellow-orange belt because during the exams I "was good, but not enough to fully get an orange belt". I've checked the official (I think) ranks for aikido and double-colored belts aren't a thing. Was that because we were kids or is it a sign of a possible mcdojo?

Heard some stories that before these modern arts were popular (for example MMA or BJJ), part of judokas use to cross-train aikido and seen that as valuable.
Does this still happen or is aikido completely avoided?

Aikido comes from the same martial lineage as judo and jujitsu. It emphasizes blending with attacks rather than countering force with force, and utilizes throws, joint locks, and pins in a cooperative drill setting.
