    We all know martial arts are a means of exercise, self-preservation/self-defense, and self-perfection. We spend years learning how to increase our attributes (speed, timing, fine motor skill, sensitivity, etc.), how to defend ourselves and our loved ones, and how to reach that higher spiritual awareness that makes us better people.
