Real Stories. Real Struggles. Real Strength.

Fatherhood and martial arts: two roles that demand discipline, courage, and an open heart. Modern Dads of Martial Arts: Volume One brings together powerful, funny, and deeply moving true stories from dads across the martial arts world-each balancing kicks, kids, and chaos with grit and grace.

This compelling collection is a must-read for martial artists, parents, or anyone inspired by the extraordinary strength found in everyday heroes. Whether you're a martial arts practitioner, a supportive partner, or someone searching for the perfect Father's Day gift, this book delivers insight, inspiration, and an emotional punch that stays with you long after the final page.

Inside, you'll find:

Raw and relatable parenting moments from black belts, instructors, and martial arts dads of all levels. Humor and honesty that reveal the triumphs and trials of balancing the dojo and the dining room. Motivational reflections on how martial arts helped these men become better dads-and how fatherhood made them better martial artists.

From the founder of a safety podcast protecting families to a Tai Chi teacher raising triplets, each voice in this volume proves that strength isn't just about punches and blocks-it's about showing up, learning from your missteps, and leading with love.

�� Perfect for martial artists, dads, teachers, and anyone who believes in growth through challenge.

�� Gift it to the dad, mentor, or fighter in your life who could use a reminder: they're not alone.

Whether for yourself or someone you care about, Modern Dads of Martial Arts will inspire, uplift, and connect readers through the shared power of stories.
