So recently I’ve watched bunch of martial arts videos on YT and it got me wondering if I should start training something. However there is more to martial arts than just the exercise part: most of it is rooted in eastern religions like buddhism. This specific article covers the problems with karate fron christian perspective, I’d like to hear if anyone here has tried martial arts and what’s your experience with it. Were there any religious parts like meditation?
Yes, i tried it for one day. The gym smelled so shit and sweaty so I didn’t continue xD. BTW this was never meant to be yes or no question since the answer to my question is more nuanced. Also I don’t have MA experience so I decided to ask others if there is any problems for christians to try it.
