Listen "Ma-ai and Yoyuu in Budo"
Episode Synopsis
The episode excerpt discusses the significance of ma-ai, or proper distance, in martial arts, specifically highlighting the Japanese concept of yoyuu.

Maintaining this space allows for sufficient time, composure, and physical room to react, ultimately connecting to broader concepts of awareness and adaptability within Budo.
The episode emphasizes that without ma-ai, effective combat is severely hindered.
