Just Like Swimming

Just Like Swimming is a blog about Japanese Budo in particular, as well as martial arts in general. It is collaboratively authored by a group of experienced martial artists, with 15+ years each in at least one Japanese martial tradition.

Each of us has to some degree “insider access” to the respective arts we practice and organizations we have membership in. Our perspective is that of non-novices who are not after your money, nor out to get you to join their art, school or cult!

Our goal is to provide a contemporary & informative view on the martial arts world, free from commercial and self-aggrandizing agendas. We seek to tell it how it is, or more accurately, how we think it is!
