Martial arts are quite fascinating, even for somone like me who knows little about it, as the outfits seem to come from another age. They always remind me of the samourais and i always admire their technique that reqquires so much focus, body language reading and anticipation of movements!
I agree. The costume and techniques are so interesting. it’s like watching a bit of history come alive.
Fascinating world that of martial arts. I wonder if the costumes they wear have some meaning? I really know very little about this!
