Martial arts are involved with personal hand-to-hand fighting; not only how to fight when the situation demands it, but how to avoid situations that may lead to a fight. There are hundreds of martial arts and new ones are "created" daily. The bottom line is that martial arts are methods for people to use while fighting; their is nothing mystical or magical about a martial art—it is just people fighting, just as they have since their creation.

The term "martial art" has become a generic term used to describe any type of human physical fighting, be it classical karate, traditional Taekwondo, boxing, wrestling, or the Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). However, if a fighting style does not include the 'Art', it should not be classified a martial art, it is really just a fighting style or method. The Art is what separates a martial art from a fighting style.
