Martial Arts• The Martial arts are ways of fighting.

People learn them for self-defense and for physical fitness. There are many different kinds of martial arts. Each martial art has its own moves. Karate, Kung Fu, and Tae Kwon Do involve kicks and punches. Jujitsu, Judo and Aikido use holds and throws.

• Most of the martial arts come from East Asia. Kung Fu started in China over 2.000 years ago. Tae Kwon Do started in Korea. Jujitsu, Judo and Sumo developed in Japan. The martial arts first came to the United States in the 1800s with immigrants from China and Japan.

• People who are training in most martial arts wear white pants and a white robe. They also wear a colored belt or sash. The color of the belt tells how good the person is. In Karate, for example, the belts are white, green, purple, brown, and black. Students earn each belt by mastering more moves and more skills.

• A beginner wears a white belt. A master – somebody who is highly skilled wears a black belt.

• People practice some martial arts as sports. That means they complete in tournaments. Competitions in Judo and Taek Kwon Do are parts of the Summer Olympic Games. You can watch kickboxing tournaments on television. In Sumo wrestling matches, heavy men try push, slap, or shove each other out of a small ring.
