The Measure of a Martial Artist reveals the correlation between the shaping of a martial artist and the shaping of the character of an individual learning martial art skill. As the required disciplines begin to transform the beginner in martial arts it also has an affect in an individual’s lifestyle outside of the dojo or martial art studio.
