Product Description

The most valuable concept ever attempted in documenting today's Martial Arts renaissance is brought to life in "The Warrior Within". Fifteen top practitioners of Jeet Kune Do, Karate, Kung Fu, Jujitsu, Kendo, Tai Chi Chuan and Classical Oriental Weaponry pay tribute to the Martial Arts Master of all time, Bruce Lee. In addition to exhibiting their deadly skills, the Masters talk honestly about themselves and about their mystical, spiritual and philosophic thoughts on the ancient art of self defense. It is also about their place in a modern society whose escalating crime rate and violence is making the knowledge of self defense a necessity for more and more ordinary people, especially women.

Executive Producer Manuel Ortiz Braschi said that it was made with the purpose of educating the General Public to what the Martial Arts are all about. Viewers will learn how it is an intelligent solution, not only for protection but also for self confidence and peace of mind. It is guaranteed to be a real eye opener into the world of Martial Arts.

"Warrior" received the highest honor a film could be awarded at "Las Americas Film Festival", given to films of unusual merit. It has received great reviews from film critics, newspapers & magazines and is considered by many to be a classic. Martial Arts fans will have the opportunity to see many of their favorites in action. Each is a highly ranked representative of their style and art.

Customer Reviews

Repeated viewings from a longtime martial artist
I first saw "The Warrior Within" on TV as a kid in Hong Kong and I thought it was great. That was around the time I started my martial arts training. Since then, I have owned two copies, gave one to a fellow martial artist and seen it more than 50(?) times at least. It always brings me back to what the martial arts are about and why I started training. I still watch it every now and then to this day. Martial Arts are a way of life to me and this is the perfect documentary for someone like that. Seeing some of the greats in their heyday and listening to them speak is inspirational and exciting. I only wish I could have had the pleasure and honour of meeting them. This video is a definite must for every martial artist and for anyone interested in Eastern philosophy and making the world a better place.

Warrior Within is worth exploring for Martial Arts Mastery!
I saw "The Warrior Within", a tribute to Bruce Lee and other inspired Martial Arts masters, and I enjoyed it. It displays the art of several martial arts talents and their self defense philosophy which helps them to prevent them from becoming victimized in a world where violence must sometimes be diffused by violence; the Art self defense! Practitioners give their own account of how Martial Arts training is important to them, and why it is still a part of their lives. Even Robert Lee, brother of the late Bruce Lee, contributes a smooth song as a theme for this documentary. For Males as well as Females, the Warrior Within is an example of why Self Defense is still an important part of life, and why it's mastery is worth exploring for young, and old alike. A truly memorable film!
