14 Martial Arts IVA Institute is an institution of higher learning and proud to offer a Bachelor's Degree, Master s Degree and Doctorate Degree in martial arts studies. While martial arts studies at the University level has long been a part of academic life in Asia, IVA s program is unique in that it combines a wide range of liberal arts courses with martial arts practice. The program offered explores four aspects of the martial arts: 1. Historical background and philosophical roots of the martial arts. 2. Languages and cultures of the societies in which the martial arts originated and developed. 3. In-depth study of at least one of the martial arts. 4. Psychosocial dimensions of the martial arts and their impact upon personality and society. It has long been argued that through study of the martial arts, people develop a measurable sense of accomplishment and a mastery of mind over body, contributing to greater self-esteem. Through the teacher-student relationship the martial arts student embarks on a voyage of selfdiscovery and learns the importance of respect and regard for others. 14
