WHEN CHUCK NORRIS FELT LIKE A WEAKLING

Martial arts master battles health problems tied to low self-esteem

"While stationed in Korea, I was introduced to the martial arts. Earning my black belt in the Korean form of karate changed my life. It started me on a path. It changed the way I saw myself, and within eight years, I was on top of the martial arts world and a champion.

I’ve tried to impart these lessons throughout my life. My wife, Gena, and I have seen firsthand the power of martial arts discipline through our foundation, KickStart Kids, which teaches the martial arts via a physical education curriculum in more than 46 Texas middle schools, serving more than 7,000 kids. It is a means for young people, many from broken homes and at risk, to reap the benefits of this training, helping them to crack the egg of insecurity – by replacing the negative with positive – and to move on to become successful in their own right."
