The martial arts are in a dismal state in the U.S. as a result of the tremendously popular UFC and other sport-fighting leagues. What was once a practice of discipline, self-awareness, and service has become a huge business that caters to people's desire for power and greed. Humility has been replaced by arrogance and self-discipline has given way to self-indulgence. This publication laments its demise but sees no real possibility of it changing.
For a brilliant satire of this phenomenon click here to see a scene from Napoleon Dynamite in which he and his brother consider training in the ancient art of Rex Kwon Do!
And then, click here to see Rex's amazing students demonstrate their mastery!
