Maija Soderholm Nov 26, 2019

Show notes

Maija Soderholm was a long time private student of the late Filipino sword master Sonny Umpad, and an official inheritor of his system. He taught that every weapon you put in your hand had a personality, and that by merely holding in your hand should tell you it's function - how it should move, and what it was meant for. His own designs and modifications truly had a life of their own. They were things of beauty and truly 'sung' in the hand.

In her other life working in construction and as a scenic artist, she has spent the better part of the last 30 years using tools, and has developed a deep distaste for poor design and a loathing of mediocrity . "Of course I am skilled enough to paint a straight line with a cheap brush, but how much more satisfying to do it with one designed by someone who knew what it was for".

You can find Maija's two books on Amazon:

The Liar the Cheat and the Thief: Deception and the Art of Sword

and

The Hustler: Sword Play and the Art of Tactical Thinking

Conversations like this need to be happening everywhere, mental health is one of the most important things you can do for yourself. There has long been a stigma in sports and martial arts to be stoic and saying you are depressed or having trouble has been seen as a sign of weakness. Kristina and Erin are pushing beyond this way of thinking and breaking the stigma and ending the silence.
