Description

"What are the martial arts? - This is the most mysterious point which one gains without learning." These cryptic words were spoken by one of the greatest martial artists of the twentieth century, Grandmaster Takamatsu Toshitsugu*. He passed away in 1972, the same year I began studying martial arts. I was too young to question why I liked the training. My family members had been soldiers for generations, and my uncle was even stationed in Asia and studied budo (Japanese martial arts). I guess it follows that my parents' daycare center curriculum included karate for Kindergarteners. But as I grew older and after years of fighting in tournaments, my curiosity about the roots and true meaning behind the discipline grew. At fourteen, I stopped sparring and turned to more substantial forms of research and exercise. Shortly after, I happened to pick up a book written by an American who had gone to Japan and trained with a mysterious master called Tanemura Sensei. The author was greatly impressed but for some reason missed his opportunity to complete his training with Tanemura Sensei. Perhaps I had a chance...I was only from a small city in the Midwest. I had no connection to the Japanese Grandmaster thousands of miles away. Even so I felt that somehow, I'd eventually meet Tanemura Sensei and receive the direct teaching I longed for. Five years of searching went by, and because the internet had not yet been invented, the hunt was even more challenging. I was sometimes overcome by confusion and despair. At times, I even forgot the goal entirely. But eventually destiny reminded me that I had to learn the truth. This book contains the story of how my apprenticeship unfolded.
