The Martial Arts

The place of martial arts in the curriculum of a Jedi is often a topic of debate. As I read through the Jedi Temple’s discussion forum, the questions of whether or not to study a martial art, which one, and whether or not such study should be required were often the spark of contention.

I am including readings (and recommended books) about not only the practice of the various martial arts but also the interior development that can result from studying a martial art.
