The methodological basis of the study is a systematic and comprehensive approach that provided the study and generalization of the substantive components of the value orientations of an individual-defender of the Motherland. It is proven that the mastery of Ukrainian historical traditional martial arts by young people contributes to the value attitude formation of the individual to the world around them and to themselves. The attention is focused on the cultural component of military-patriotic education, which is a powerful prerequisite for the formation of a culture of interethnic good-neighborly relations, legal, political and ecological culture, and in general the spirituality of the individual.
