We will take you on a spiritual journey from the Temples of Shaolin and Wudang Mountain to the Honbu Dojos and Training Halls of Japan. We take you inside the Aikido Headquarters, the JKA and JKS Karate Dojos and to the All Japan Kendo Championships.

Through revealing interviews and intimate film of their daily training, you will experience the philosophical and physical elements that unite all great masters of the Martial Arts. We will show you a deeper understanding of the mind-body connection and why this plays such an important role not only in martial arts, but in your daily life.
