I think a lot of people don't realize that martial arts are just an expression like anything else. It's just that most people are not trained to punch or kick, but you can walk or run or dance, which is also part of expression.

I didn't know anything about martial arts. I'm a big fan, but I never practiced martial arts.

Martial art is a form of expression, an expression from your inner self to your hands and legs.

Although not considered a martial art, boxing is really a martial art. It's a very limited martial art as long as you agree to just box... but in an actual physical fight against someone who's just a wrestler, you're going to get killed.

You know, it's such an insult to actual martial artists that I say that I do martial arts.

Martial arts is something you can learn or pick up and think you could do really well.

I'm a martial artist, and I don't train because I have a fight; I train because it's my lifestyle, and I'll train every day if I'm not hurt.

Fighting is kind of like choreography. It's not just get in there and punching someone: you have to have choreography. Someone is going to hit high; someone is going to hit at the bottom.

We learn martial arts as helping weakness. You never fight for people to get hurt. You're always helping people.

I see martial arts as moving forms of meditation. When you're sparring or drilling techniques, you can't think of anything else.
