Journey to Black Belt Lessons For Life edition by Omar L Rashed Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
“An inspiring and creative book. Omar's powerful description of his martial arts journey will help you on your journey, whatever that journey might be.”
— Eboo Patel, author of Sacred Ground and Acts of Faith
As a martial artist and one who maintains a black belt and has trained personally with Omar, it is with that respect I say that Omar has an understanding of the journey he travels, much like allowing the person who ‘knows the way’ to drive the car. A black belt is forged in the journey, and maintaining a black belt is a journey in itself. One could easily describe the journey to black belt as a ‘journey to the starting line.’ Omar clearly depicts this in his maxims as he explains the lessons he’s learned. From the perspective of a martial artist, his explanations of our techniques and secrets could not be put into better phrasing and words. This is an excellent work for those who seek an understanding of the art as they begin their journey, or for those farther along the journey who wish to have a book to compliment what they already have learned. - M. K. Ward, Shodan (1st Degree Black Belt), Shinsei Hapkido; Yonkyu (4th Level - Blue Belt), Akayama Ryu Jujutsu
In his new book, Omar brings to life his own stories of training battles with clear language, wit, and good humor, conveying and inspiring not only the skillful art of Judo and Jujitsu, but the lifelong practice of wisdom, balance, and authenticity. Omar provides food for thought, asking us to ponder what it means to be strong, to be a warrior, and to be noble. He somehow manages to retain much of the traditional language of Judo and Jujutsu while remaining conversational and welcoming in tone.
Even for someone who has no experience with martial arts, such as myself, the book was filled with moments of truth and clarity, moments when the words fell straight into my heart, inviting me to pause and simply appreciate their inspiration and nourishment.
Omar speaks to us, the reader, always as a student himself – a trainee on the path of learning – rather than a supposed expert. His words stay fresh and empowering. We are not being spoken down to, but spoken to as a brothers and sisters.
— Arjuna Jayawardena, writer, meditation practitioner, and life balance coach
Omar’s journey from White Belt to Black Belt and, hopefully, beyond, is a travelogue well worth reading. I’ve been studying Japanese Jujutsu for the past 15 years now and as I read it I found myself wanting to get back on the mat all over again.
Jujutsu is an encompassing art. It contains Judo, Aikido, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, as well as elements of Karate and weapons both modern and medieval. One of its hallmarks is efficiency—never opposing force with force, and always seeking to use the strongest attacks against the opponent’s greatest weakness.
Omar captures the essence of the beginner’s mind quite handily. Many authors have written stories of their martial arts adventures from the perspective of many years’ experience, and much is lost or filtered through time and mastery. Here we are introduced to the raw journey, with all its attendant bumps and bruises.
This is not necessarily a how-to manual, although the avid student will find much here that will aid their lessons. There are no shortcuts to mastery, as it’s the miles and not the arrival that forges greatness.
After reading this book, you will most likely want to start your own journey. To paraphrase an ancient Chinese saying ‘The best time to start learning jujutsu was 20 years ago. The second best time is now’.”
— David Michael Wilson, Sandan (3rd Degree Black Belt), Heiwashinkai Jujutsu
