The Way of the Warrior: Discovering Việt Võ Đạo with Master Phuc
This World Martial Arts Day, Master Phuc shares the discipline, philosophy and cultural heritage behind Việt Võ Đạo, Vietnam’s indigenous martial art.
Where Korea has taekwondo and Japan has karate, Vietnam has Việt Võ Đạo. At Anantara Quy Nhon Villas, in Vietnam’s martial-arts-mad Bình Định province, now part of Gia Lai province, the tradition announces itself to arriving guests with the steady beat of traditional drums as Tran Van Phuc, the resort’s martial arts master and security manager, steps forward to begin his demonstration.
