About this title

Synopsis

Guides and encourages those seeking to learn skills in the martial arts. This work provides insight on applying martial arts philosophies to all aspects of life and sets out the fundamentals of the martial arts, from psychological factors to training techniques to choosing an appropriate school.

From the Author

Hopefully there's something for everyone.
This book is very special to me. It not only projects my thoughts and opinions about the martial arts, but allows me the honour of coming into your homes, lives, and minds. It is because of this that the book itself should not be looked upon as law.

The chapters are just reflections of my experiences within the martial arts realm. I hope that I can touch something in everyone -- from the novice who is on the way to their very first class -- the intermediate, who is finally feeling proficient in a style and is hungry to better themselves -- to the advanced practitioner, or instructor who may be open-minded enough to try and discover new ways of looking at an ancient art.

Should only one sentence lead you in a positive direction, or the entire book itself... I'd just like to say, thank you... thank you for the opportunity to be part of your life, and your martial arts voyage.

Ever forward... or as my father would say:

"When it's too tough for everyone else... it's just right for me." Greg Doyle 1934-1998

Good luck and enjoy.
