Summary "Today, young adults and twenty-something's are subject to chronic fears of missing out and mental health issues unlike generations that have come before. Martial arts have the potential to help. Traditional martial arts revolve around principles and core values to promote individual growth and a balanced approach toward living. A complete martial artist learns how to conquer "self" and how to live by traditional core values.

This book offers young adults and twenty-something's an opportunity to see what martial arts can do for their lives. It provides a key to unlock a door, for self-development and balanced living"--Publisher.
