Have you ever wondered how people learned to throw giant opponents,
fight like tigers, and use brain power to win against brute
strength? It's time to dive into the epic history of martial arts!
From high kicks to ground wrestling, discover how ancient warriors
turned combat into a true science of skill, discipline, and
respect. Travel back in time to the misty mountains of ancient
China, where a monk stared at a wall for nine years and helped
invent Shaolin Kung Fu using animal moves! Then, journey to Japan
to meet Jigoro Kano, a ninety-pound teenager who invented Judo to
stop bullies by using their own energy against them. We’ll also
head to Brazil to see how the Gracie family created Brazilian
jiu-jitsu to win the very first ultimate cage fight, and learn
about the amazing Thai warrior who used the "Art of Eight Limbs" to
defeat ten champions in a row! Grab your black belt and get ready
for an action-packed historical adventure!
