Content overview

MartialMusings.com is a long‑form storytelling blog centered on the author’s personal journey through martial arts, culture, and self‑development. The site features essays that read like short memoirs, often recounting formative experiences from the author’s childhood in Japan, early judo training, and encounters with martial artists over the years. These stories are not instructional; instead, they explore the emotional and psychological dimensions of training—discipline, shame, courage, stillness, and personal growth.

The blog’s tone is reflective and literary. Posts such as “Still Dreaming: The Undocumented Life”, “The Discipline of Shame”, and “Warrior of Stillness” focus on internal transformation rather than technique, offering readers a deeper look at how martial arts shape character and mindset. The author frequently draws on cultural influences from Japan, including traditional etiquette and values passed down from his grandmother, who was a master of Japanese tea ceremony.
