Over the centuries as the practice of martial arts spread throughout Asia, each region developed its own specialty, from karate to judo, jiujitsu, tae kwon do, kung fu, tai chi, and aikido. The martial arts proved to be an influential and enduring form of exercise, self-defense, and self-improvement.
Promoted in recent years by action film stars such as Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris, martial arts today are practiced by millions of people worldwide who seek a connection between the powers of the body and the powers of the mind.
