52 Masters (2018)
A Great Docu-Series on Great Martial Artists of our time
Sensei William Christopher Ford's documentary series provides a glimpse behind some of the top martial arts instructors in a variety of styles. Not just content to interview them, Ford brings the "beginner's mind" to the table, putting on a white belt and heading to the mat to train in those styles.
This series also serves as a historic record and treasure of some of the older legendary masters who we know won't be with us forever. This gives the viewer a chance to see and hear them, and sample their wisdom while we still have them around.
These episodes also examine the philosophy behind the various styles and arts featured. As a lifelong martial artist myself, it's enjoyable to "empty my cup" and taste all of the different "teas" that William presents.
