52 Masters (2018)
A Riveting Martial Arts Journey
Sensei William Christopher Ford ("Dennis" from The Karate Kid Part III) provides a compelling look at a martial arts master's journey to learn from various fellow masters. The "52" concept relates to his 52nd birthday and lessons from 52 martial arts masters from across many disciplines, including fellow Karate Kid alum Sensei Ron Thomas ("Bobby Brown" from The Karate Kid). Each episode contains practical techniques as well as historical insights and philosophies behind the different martial arts covered. Sensei Ford takes us along on his journey to learn practical techniques but also the larger context of where these disciplines can fit into your life. Highly recommend especially if you're a fan of The Karate Kid franchise and the hit series Cobra Kai. This is more than an instructional series and more than a martial arts docuseries. It's a compelling story of an accomplished master who becomes a student again - something we should all strive to do in our lives. Well done.
