Is Martial Arts Violence?

Is martial arts violence? It depends on you intent. We train so there is peace. At times in my life I have found that the some people were out of balance and they want to bring that unbalance energy into my life. This is when I had to use martial arts to bring life back into balance. But I never wanted to increase violence I just wanted have balance and peace in my life. Thank you for the question?

Martial Arts give you the self-confidence to make the right choices and to also see when things are out of balance so one can take action to stay clear of poor choices.
