Martial Arts
What is an Evolving Martial Artist?
Someone who has achieved technical excellence and is concerned that the deeper meaning of the tradition is becoming lost with the popularization of martial arts as sport.
TanDao is dedicated to the vision of martial arts as an integrated way that transcends combat and explores the full spectrum of the martial arts: hard, soft and internal.
Our goal is to develop a community of like minded individuals to explore, practice and share insights into modern and traditional styles. In addition to technique and philosophy, we mix some entertainment into the process too.
Using the videos in a consistent practice may enhance your core physical skills utilized in all styles and help discover the universal principles behind all systems. Try the wellness videos as well to bring a balance to your training.
