However, there are also more modern recognised martial arts like French kick-boxing,  Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Korean Tae Kwando and Japanese Aikido. If you search online for 'x martial art', where X is your target country, you will discover more.I hope that you will find the information helpful, useful and profitable.

So far, we have only mentioned physical martial arts. There are also others like archery and javelin throwing. In other words, most people's understanding on the phrase 'martial arts' is too limited. One should think of 'martial' as war(fare) and 'arts' as skills or methods. It opens up the scope of the words.
The information in this ebook on various aspects of martial arts both Eastern and Western is organised into 16 chapters of about 500-600 words each.PUBLISHER: TEKTIME
