About the Author

2023 Best Indie Book Awards Non Fiction Martial Arts
Author Colin Wee wins 2023 Best Indie Book Awards Non Fiction Martial Arts for Breaking Through: The Secrets of Bassai Dai Kata

Colin Wee is a martial artist, teacher, and writer. For more than four decades, Colin has explored the depth of martial arts, from the sweaty archery fields and martial arts training halls in South East Asia in the 70s to the Midwest in the early 90s, and then to establishing his school, Joong Do Kwan, in Perth, Western Australia in 2000.

Colin’s journey has always been about more than rote learning technique — it has been about how martial arts shapes decision-making, resilience, and how we carry ourselves in life.

He continues his journey, and shares his insights without ego — the martial arts, the history, the characters, and the lessons we discover along the way.

Annually, Colin hosts martial arts seminars on traditional applications training, and book events in Australia, Asia, and the United States.
