Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mastery is often portrayed in martial arts as a path of glory, discipline, and unrivaled strength. Yet, lurking within the corners of every dojo, hidden challenges and dangers are seldom spoken of. "The Shadows of the Dojo" pulls back the curtain on these overlooked aspects, offering readers an unprecedented look into the depths of martial arts beyond the surface level of punches, kicks, and belt colors. This groundbreaking book delves into the less discussed but equally crucial elements of martial arts practice. From the physical toll of rigorous training regimes to the mental and emotional battles that practitioners face, "The Shadows of the Dojo" explores the multifaceted challenges that can impact martial artists at every level. It sheds light on the dangers of overtraining, the struggle with body image issues, the mental health battles waged silently, and the risk of adopting a mindset skewed by toxic competitiveness or unhealthy loyalty dynamics. But "The Shadows of the Dojo" is more than just an exposé of the hardships; it is a guide through the darkness. Understanding these hidden challenges is the first step towards overcoming them and becoming a more complete martial artist. The book offers practical advice on navigating the mental and emotional hurdles, fostering a healthy relationship with training, and recognizing when passion may become an obsession. Moreover, "The Shadows of the Dojo" advocates for a shift towards a more holistic approach to martial arts training-one that encompasses mental and emotional well-being alongside physical prowess. It calls on practitioners, instructors, and martial arts schools to create environments that nurture all aspects of an individual, highlighting the importance of balance, empathy, and ethical leadership within the martial arts community. By bringing these shadows into the light, "The Shadows of the Dojo" aims to spark conversations that have long been avoided, encouraging a culture of openness, understanding, and comprehensive care in martial arts. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner, a beginner, or someone intrigued by the martial arts philosophy, this book will equip you with the knowledge to face the hidden challenges head-on, making you a better martial artist and a stronger person both inside and out.

Book excerpt: Lively, detailed essays explaining the meaning behind the apparatus, traditions, and etiquette particular to the Japanese martial arts—by an American sword master Beginning students in Japanese martial arts, such as karate, judo, aikido, iaido, kyudo, and kendo, learn that when they are in the dojo (the practice space), they must don their practice garb with ritual precision, address their teacher and senior students in a specific way, and follow certain unwritten but deeply held codes of behavior. But very soon they begin to wonder about the meaning behind the traditions, gear, and relationships in the dojo. In this collection of lively, detailed essays, Dave Lowry, one of the most well-known and respected swordsmen in the United States, illuminates the history and meaning behind the rituals, training costumes, objects, and relationships that have such profound significance in Japanese martial arts, including • the dojo space itself • the teacher-student relationship • the act of bowing • what to expect—and what will be expected of you—when you visit a dojo • the training weapons • the hakama (ceremonial skirt) and dogi (practice uniform) • the Shinto shrine Authoritative, insightful, and packed with fascinating stories from his own experience, In the Dojo provides a wealth of information that beginning students will pore over and advanced students will treasure.
