Martial arts can improve more than just physical fitness. It can make practitioners think about their body, movements, and mental reactions in entirely new ways. This book explores karate, kung fu, and tae kwon do. Readers will learn about flexibility, balance, and how to get back on their feet after taking a hit. Learning to fall gracefully is half the battle. This guidebook also explores the emphasis that the martial arts place on resolving conflicts without punches or kicks.
