Martial arts is a way of life, not just forms we practice or art forms we use to defend ourselves.  They have so many benefits from physical health and fitness to spiritual development.  TheBubblingSpring.com blog is about the life long practice of the Taoist Arts and sharing the ideas about martial arts in general, meditative practices and the pragmatic elements of the arts.

As our kids are now getting into Tae Kwon-Do, I get to observe their learning and exploration of the forms and themselves.  Some of the ideas posted on TheBubblingSpring are about those observations but through the lens of Taoist Stillness and the application to our daily lives whether we are practitioners or not.

I don’t post often on TheBubblingSpring but when I do, I aim at the practicalities of what bubbles up in our martial arts practices.
