Martial Arts and Culture
[ glossary · methodology · references ]
Inner Dharma is a writing project concerned with traditional martial arts and culture. It hosts reflections on my ongoing training in internal martial arts and classical weapons practices as well as my ongoing research into:
- The Shinkage-ryū of Kamiizumi Ise no Kami and related arts.
- The impact of Daoism, Esoteric Buddhism and sacred mountains on older martial traditions.
- The study of early modern martial institutions and their members.
I want to thank all those who provided feedback and encouragement over the last twenty years.
