This document outlines how martial arts masters can cultivate their community for social change. It encourages connecting with 14 groups in the community like government, schools, faith organizations, and more. The first step is to make lists of contacts within each group that martial arts teachers and their teams already know. The goal is to develop relationships across the community and work with diverse organizations to help those in need outside the dojo.
