A Dō (道 Dō ) (also known as Michi in Japanese, see also Chinese usage Tao) or "Way" is any one of a number of spiritual, martial, or aesthetic disciplines that evolved in Japan and Korea.
In Japanese, a Dō implies a body of knowledge and tradition with an ethic and an aesthetic, and having the characteristics of specialization (senmonsei), transmissivity (keishōsei), normativity (kihansei), universality (kihensei), and authoritativeness (ken'isei).[1]
