Even though Stav has contemporary been labelled as a martial art, at its core, it is a Scandinavian educational tradition with the aim of fostering growth and personal development. Through its integration of runes and its own framework of Norse mythology, Stav gives the practitioners profound insights. While Stav encompasses a deeply spiritual and philosophical perspective, it remains non-dogmatic.
The martial arts training within Stav promotes both physical and mental well-being, showing parallels to what is today known as mindfulness or breathwork, Stav can also be seen as a Scandinavian counterpart to yoga. For those seeking a connection to Scandinavian native spirituality or wishing to practice a martial form deeply rooted in Nordic cultural heritage, Stav offers a meaningful and authentic path. This book helps you to take the first steps on your journey and discover the wisdom and balance that Stav can bring to your life.
The author is a personal student of the inheritor of the Stav tradition and has spent almost 30 years dedicated to studying this profound practice. In addition to practical expertise, the author draws extensively from years of exploring academic and scholarly research on Norse mythology and runes, incorporating these insights into a well-rounded and accessible perspective. This is the second edition of the book, originally published in Swedish in 2021, which received very positive feedback from readers for its depth and accessibility. In this edition, the author continues to share not only practical applications but also a deep understanding of the tradition, making Stav accessible to a wider audience while preserving its authenticity and richness. The preface is penned by Thomas Karlsson, PhD in the history of religions, a renowned author and highly regarded interpreter of the runes, whose introduction adds important perspectives to this book.
