Abhijit Naskar
“Martial arts is not about fighting, it is about being fit and healthy, both physiologically and psychologically.”
Abhijit Naskar

Abhijit Naskar
“Sonnet of Martial Arts

The secret to Martial Arts,
Is not style but training.
Pick any form that appeals to you,
And train regularly without failing.
Practice a hundred moves five times,
It is of no use whatsoever.
But practice one move every day,
And it'll be your lifetime protector.
But before all that ask yourself,
Why do you wanna be a martial artist?
Is it to nourish an able mind and body,
Or to be yet another fitness narcissist?
Trash all your arrogance before training.
A martial artist is to be gentle and caring.”
Abhijit Naskar, Gente Mente Adelante: Prejudice Conquered is World Conquered
