Is the Aikido martial art a practical self-defence?

Yes it's a self defense. However I wouldn't say it's a very effective or successful style. It require too many complex technique such as grab a punch, twist person arm/hand in akward way that will make it very difficult to pull it off in real fight, and many other things.

If you want a effective self defense, learn a style that allow you spar and compete full contact.

Kata won't help you learn how to fight any better than ballet. Point spar won't teach you too much because then you won't know how effective it is in real fight. Chi is full of bullsh!t. Pressure point SUCK when it come to fight because it's too much trouble to feel around and try to find spot when someone is trying to bash your face off your skull.

So you need some style that let you test it out for real in controlled enviroment.
