Far too many martial artists prioritize toughness at the expense of compassion. We want to be tough. We need to learn how to take a hit. Absolutely, these traits are valuable. But we also need to be able to meet people where they’re at, and this requires compassion. Join me in this episode in a discussion of the value of compassion and empathy in martial arts, and of how compassion can help us determine the best way to motivate and support other martial artists on their journey.
