The Language of
the Martial Arts

Learning the martial arts is kind of like learning a new language. This month we will look deeper into this comparison to discover how it can help us understand the application of martial arts training. Sparring, defense maneuvers and even punches and kicks have very interesting correlations to the study of language.
