Moscow, Russia: Very often, people outside of the fighting community associate the term martial arts to karate, judo, or kung fu. I’m saying this without any malice but that is a very narrow definition of martial arts. People nowadays take up martial arts for various reasons: for self-defense, sports, a fitness and health activity, an aspect of entertainment (movies, television shows, circus) and for mental and spiritual development.
