why people take up martial arts as a sport

Do martial artists practice martial arts as a simple sport or to defend themselves against likely attacks in the street or in dangerous situations?

Does the choice of martial art emanate from a passion or simply for practical reasons resulting from daily life?

In my opinion martial arts respond first of all to spiritual needs such as concentration, self-control, harmony and synchronization of body and mind. The elevation of all that is material is the ultimate goal of a martial arts adept, which sometimes explains the incredible feats achieved by a great expression of patience and perseverance that aims at the final goal of being "the most accomplished martial artist" imbued with a "nobility of character" according to the conception of the great master and founder of karate, Funakoshi Gichin.

The martial arts, in particular, Asian martial arts were beforehand attached to the religious practices. Indeed its practices of physical endurance helped the followers of the temple to better concentrate and to better assimilate their theological duties.

With the problems of modern life and the fast pace of daily life, the lack of time and motivation, people prefer key solutions and tend to look for efficiency that would allow them to save time. They want to learn quickly techniques that are as effective as they are easy and do not require much effort.

This is possible but not always obvious. Looking for a quick solution to deal with an aggression seems a bit impossible because you first have to cultivate a self-confidence that develops with almost daily practice. Moving from a simulated fight in the gym to an authentic fight during an aggression is not as simple as one might think, it requires a rapid movement, a quick choice of the targeted position of the body because the opponent must succumb to a single blow or two. Any delay can degenerate into a difficult situation.

The ideal is to learn effective movements and techniques, without going into the concepts reserved for professionals, but also to devote daily time to learning.

However, we must not forget the most important rule during an aggression, which is to run and run away when possible.

OUI, TU PEUX CHANGER LE MONDE Dans un cours de communication un de mes élève insistait sur la décision ferme de faire tout son possible de changer son entourage sa société et plus largement le monde. Bien sûr j’ai compris sa ferveur et ses sentiments ardents, sa déception et sa désillusion vis-à-vis d’un monde anarchique où les valeurs se dissipent laissant libre cours à toutes les fantaisies, toutes les libertés, sans frein, sans valeurs morales qui régisseraient nos actes ,toutefois , cet étudiant, emporté par sa jeunesse, parait désarmé et ne possède vraiment pas de moyens ni de stratégies pour « changer le monde ». Je parie que c’est le cas de la majorité des jeunes dans le monde qui vivent ce dilemme les empêchant de s’intégrer correctement dans la société. D’un côté la nature humaine, l’instinct de la naissance et de l’autre, la « corruption de la société » Voilà la conversation qui s’était ...

live hapily

Live happily The fast pace of life, stress, occupation, frantic race, disillusionment, disappointments, the modern human being is the main victim of all this disorder. Is there a place for happiness in all this imbalance? Should we think, like Gide, that we must "taste all the earthly foods" for at least an instant of happiness? If one accepts this attitude, it would be not to know how to use the will which is the expression of a wise reflection. The action of the man, in general goes in the direction of the satisfaction of its needs and thanks to the superiority of its brain, it reaches the freedom which safeguards it from the slavery of the uses and the habits. Man is then able to find at each moment what is good for him far from being driven by unconscious automatisms. But the human being, sometimes, instead of discovering new fulfilling needs, he gets trapped in the labyrinth of false needs decided most often by other actors of consumption which present them in a...

Improve memory

Improve memory Usually, to memorize, a mnemonic method is used, which consists in using methods to fix the information in the memory (picket method, pictorial method using rhymes, visual method of keywords, method of word substitution etc.), however, practice has revealed their limited scope because they are effective only in very special cases. These methods cannot cultivate memory in the sense of increasing our ability to memorize in such a way that it is simply loaded with heterogeneous elements without any close relationship between them. As a result, the brain will be forced to put more effort into it than in direct memorization by repetition. So, what really improves memory? It is the education of the higher faculties of the brain to know, the coordination of ideas, attention, interest that really allows it. The human brain has the ability to clearly direct its attention to a particular area for the time it takes to record even a complicated message. (Children can s...

HOW TO MEMORISE

HOW TO MEMORISE Is it necessary or sufficient to simply understand a principle without having to memorize it. Does the memorization of a content necessarily require understanding? What are the techniques and tricks that facilitate and allow to memorize without psychological suffering? These are the questions that this subject wants to answer: Without denigrating the role of physical factors without which there would be a dysfunction totally, if not at least partially, preventing any attempt at memorization, the focus is on the more significant and more constraining psychological factors. First of all, we must look for the reason for any memorization, then, it will be necessary to link it to a strong emotion which strongly permeates us such as the will to succeed, it will also be necessary to link it to the feeling of the general need to emancipate oneself, to distinguish oneself. It will also have to be linked to its final objective in life in general. It is necessary to st...
