Martial Arts is an incredible form of human expression. I have been teaching martial arts for over 20 years and train regularly under various systems, but my main study today is jiu-jitsu. I love the focus and the discipline it requires to master these physical forms. I have always viewed martial arts from a philosophical perspective, which has allowed me to expand my understanding about these arts further.

When you study and practice martial art philosophy in its truest sense, you will discover it is a process of refinement and growth, and that it will eventually lead to solution-oriented thinking which is desperately needed today. It will turn you from being a victim into a victor in life. It takes a great deal of inner strength to go against the grain, to challenge the status quo, to stand when no one else will stand, to protect one's inherent natural rights and freedoms, and to protect others as well. It will help you become courageous, and develop a code of honour and truth that you can live by.
"Budo is not a means of felling the opponent by force or by lethal weapons. Neither is it intended to lead the world to destruction by arms and other illegitimate means. True Budo calls for bringing the inner energy of the universe in order, protecting the peace of the world , as well as preserving, everything in nature in its right form."
Morihei Ueshiba
I encourage you to go on the journey of true growth. To develop a health plan for yourself.
To follow your intuition and to look deeply into what is happening in the world around you, as well as what is happening in your own inner world. The world of your mind, your body and your spirit.
A fully aware and empowered individual is the greatest threat to any lie, and is unstoppable on the path towards whatever goal you want to achieve.
The lie will try to tell you that you are not good enough to do this, that you cannot possibly achieve your dreams, and that you should blindly follow what others are doing or telling you to do.
Only you know what is best for you, and you will need to fortify your mind with a positive way of thinking in order to combat that lie.
It is time we wake up and remember who we are; to warrior up and to overcome these challenges on a daily basis.
