About Tanisha and Zen Martial Art

As a 4th degree black belt, I am passionate about a yin/yang balance in life! I've dedicated my eZine, The Zen Life, to sharing tips and resources to inspire us to feel great and create harmony in our lives, so sign up above.

As an artist, I have the opportunity to capture on canvas or paper the exhilaration and drama martial practitioners experience as they fiercely train and perform. I would be honored to be part of your accomplishments and passion for your martial skill by creating a fine art portrait or series for you. To learn more about commissioning a portrait, contact me at (719) 231-1956 or art@ZenMartialArt.com.

At Zen Martial Art, I want camaraderie, friendship and respect between the various styles of martial arts. We are all loyal and attracted to our chosen styles for various reasons and all are valid for whatever we're looking for.

Lifestyle

Making it "Click"

One of my favorite principles I have learned through martial arts come from T'ai Chi—yielding and letting go. Life often throws us some hard punches. During the times when I held on to pain and anger, I was so miserable, but I was eventually forced to realize that I was the only one still hurting and unhappy. When I began learning to let life flow around me like water, I realized I did indeed have the power to be happy regardless of my situation. We hear that over and over again from different sources—and hopefully we all realize it's true—but I just couldn't learn to apply it to my circumstances until I physically practiced Tai Chi and my body as well as mind began to understand and I became "one who yields."

This is what we're about. Learning. Becoming better and happier.

Share Your Experiences

I love to study and train and see how my entire being is benefited by the wisdom of the Masters. I would love to hear your experiences as you've been educated by your life or martial training as well! Email me at Stories@ZenMartialArt.com and sign up for my eZine above for more!

Portraits

I absolutely love to draw and paint, especially martial art portraits. What a great gift for your loved one who just achieved black belt or excelled in a tournament. Or commission a piece just for yourself! I only use professional-grade materials so that your portrait may be a treasured heirloom.
