Book 3: The Global Dojo—Exploring Martial Arts Philosophies Around the World

Travel beyond the Land of the Rising Sun with "The Global Dojo," the third book in the "Beyond the Dojo" series.

This volume broadens your horizons by delving into martial arts philosophies from across the globe. Discover the effortless action of Wu Wei in Chinese martial arts—great for when you want to win battles by essentially doing nothing. Unpack Sunzi's Principles of War and find out how ancient strategies can outsmart modern dilemmas (like dodging that meeting invite). Experience the harmonious dance with nature in Pencak Silat, feel the Heartbeat of Eight Limbs in Muay Thai, and embrace the pillars of respect and discipline in Taekwondo.

By comparing these global concepts with traditional Japanese teachings, you'll see how different paths can lead to the same mountain peak—or at least help you navigate life's obstacles with the agility of a martial arts master.
