Beyond the Mastery of technique or combat, there is a deeper value to Martial Arts that infiltrates one's way of life. The benefits are numerous and unmeasurable.
The American Budo Consortium was established to transcend martial arts styles, so that we may learn from each other as we pursue the life and values of Budo.
