Product Description:
From proud, well-equipped Japanese samurais wielding world-renowned swords to disciplined Chinese kung fu fighters trained in the art of mind over body, delve into the powerful, mysterious world of the martial artist and learn what it takes to become a master. This awesome DVD includes two documentaries: (1) WAY OF THE WARRIOR - Venture into the world of the modern day Japanese warrior and see how the ancient Bushido - 'way of the warrior' - traditions live on, as grandmasters impart thousands of years of weaponry and battle techniques still shrouded in mystery. Examine the complex relationship that binds Japanese master and disciple for life. Explore the tradition of 'soke,' or non-bloodline succession of a martial art, done to keep the art from dying out. And discover how the new masters are forming their own unique system of warrior arts, some more challenging and deadly than their predecessors; (2) KUNG FU FIGHTER - Explore the traditional martial art of kung fu and see the modern spin-offs that have jumped to the big screen. Begin your journey with an exploration into the extraordinary challenges to body and mind that await modern day Chinese kung fu fighters. Travel to the legendary Chinese Shaolin Temple, where 40 consecutive generations of warrior monks have studied and trained in the ancient art of kung fu. Witness first-hand what it takes to become a world master on the mat and see the skill with which the monks practice their concentrated art.
