What is Christian Martial Arts?
Christian Martial Arts is a Christ-centered program designed to motivate people using Scripture and Biblical principles. Christian Martial Arts was developed by Wendy Williamson, a martial arts instructor with a Master’s degree in Counselor Education. Her aim was to reach people with the gospel through exercise and activity. Her book clearly explains what sets Christian Martial Arts apart from other training disciplines: “There are two ways Christians can Biblically be involved in martial arts: 1. Completely removing Eastern religious concepts that may be attached and doing physical techniques as a form of exercise or sport…In addition, you learn how to protect and defend yourself and others under various circumstances. 2. Replacing Eastern religious concepts with Christian ones…Martial arts becomes a tool for growth and development in the Christian faith and life, in addition to an exercise or sport.”
