Whether it?s explained by the desire for self defense against rising crime, the influence of media and sports, or simply a new alternative to health and fitness, men, women and children are increasingly interested in the martial arts. While picking up techniques in grappling, locking holds, kicking and aiming blows, participants are also discovering that the martial arts require a high level of fitness not only of the body, but also the mind.
Alertness is one of the first and most critical mental skills. Simply put, evading blows, anticipating attacks and outsmarting an opponent require every survival instinct your brain can muster to fire and fast.
While the martial arts increases your physical prowess, an intrinsic philosophy that classic martial arts aims to instill is respect and humility?respect for your opponent?s strengths and humility for your own limitations.
Two other mental toughness tools include endurance and persistence. Successfully struggling during a sparring match requires that you learn to stick with the fight, no matter how challenging. Training and practice trains you to keep going in the face of fatigue or weakness and to never give up?qualities that can carry over to other areas such as work, academic performance and relationships.
Increased self belief, esteem and confidence are other significant benefits, as physical and mental strength grow and participants gain mastery in using their skills to overcome obstacles.
