Martial Arts- A Complete Illustrated History -Since my essay is about the discrepancy between traditional martial arts and modern day martial arts I think this source could help me out because it outlines the history of martial arts. Which would start off as traditional. I think it may further my argument on how modern day karate is veers away from traditional. Martial Arts: Mind and Body -I definitely think this will help further my argument because i wrote in my essay how much more difficult traditional martial arts is compared to modern day martial arts. I think that a sound body plus a sound mind = a sound soul. So this source can address that saying but showing how both the mind and body must be in sync when one practices martial arts, and how this is highly emphasized in traditional martial arts.
