In martial arts why do you call someone master?
Calling someone "Master" is a common in Martial Arts. It's more a sign of respect than of subservients. However, it is debatable by some. Many martial arts instructors prefer a translation equivalent to "Teacher" in the respective language, such as "Sensei" in Japanese, "Sifu" in Chinese, "Sabeomnim" in Korean and so on. The belief is one truly never masters the martial arts as it is an ever learning experience.
What do you call the martial arts move when you lie on the ground and kick up to a standing position?
