Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (November 2011) Martial arts are extensive systems of codified practices and traditions of combat, practiced for a variety of reasons, including self-defense, competition, physical health and fitness, as well as mental and spiritual development. The term martial art has become heavily associated with the fighting arts of eastern Asia, but was originally used in regard to the combat systems of Europe as early as the 1550s. An English fencing manual of 1639 used the term in reference specifically to the "Science and Art" of swordplay. The term is ultimately derived from Latin, martial arts being the "Arts of Mars," the Roman god of war.[1] Some martial arts are considered 'traditional' and tied to an ethnic, cultural or religious background, while others are modern systems developed either by a founder or an association.

  • Embodying Martial Arts for Mental Health: Cultivating Psychological Well-Being with Martial Arts Practice
    REVIEW ARTICLE SCIENCE OF MARTIAL ARTS Embodying martial arts for mental health: cultivating psychological well-being with martial arts practice Authors’ Contribution: Adam M Croom A Study Design B Data Collection Department of Philosophy, University of Pennsylvania, USA C Statistical Analysis D Manuscript Preparation Source of support: Departmental sources E Funds Collection Received: 11 July 2014; Accepted: 15 September 2014; Published online: 26 September 2014 ICID: 1122906 Abstract The question of what constitutes and facilitates mental health or psychological well-being has remained of great interest to martial artists and philosophers alike, and still endures to this day. Although important questions about well-being remain, it has recently been argued in the literature that a paradigmatic or prototypical case of human psychological well-being would characteristically consist of positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment. Other scholarship has also recently suggested that martial arts practice may positively pro- mote psychological well-being, although recent studies on martial arts have not yet been reviewed and integrated under the PERMA framework from positive psychology to further explore and explicate this possibility. This arti- cle therefore contributes to the literature by reviewing recent work on psychological well-being and martial arts to determine whether there is substantive support for the claim that practicing martial arts can positively contribute to one flourishing with greater psychological

  • Paleo Solution - 370
    Paleo Solution - 370 [0:00:00] Robb: Hey, folks, Robb Wolf here, another edition of the Paleo Solution Podcast, really, really excited for today's guest. First guest is Matt Thornton. Matt is one of my personal heroes. He is the founder of the Straight Blast Gym organization, he is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, and really someone that has dramatically influenced my thinking in the whole Brazilian jiu-jitsu scene and far beyond that as we will talk about a bit today. Our other guest is Peter Boghossian. Peter is an assistant professor of Philosophy at Portland State University. Guys, thank you so much for coming on the show today. Peter: Thanks, Robb, I'm very happy to be here. Matt: Thanks, Robb. Robb: So we're going to talk about a lot of topics today, but I'd like to focus on a paper that, Peter, you co-authored and I believe was inspired not insignificantly by Matt's work. The title is "Critical Thinking, Pedagogy, and Jiu-Jitsu: Wedding Physical Resistance to Critical Thinking." That's a big mouthful, and there's a lot of stuff I'd like to unpack just in the title of that. But before we get into that, I have a tendency of doing very paltry introductions and background bios. I'd like both of you guys to maybe dig in a bit more into your background. Matt, let's go and start with you. Matt: Sure. I'm a lifelong martial artist, obsessed with martial arts, got involved in Jeet Kune Do concepts when I left the military back in the late, very late '80s because the idea that Bruce Lee had of stand up, clinch and ground, as they put it, back in full range, so being able to fight in all different ranges made sense to me.

  • Power and Politics in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Teams
    UNIVERSITY OF BERGEN Department of Administration and Organization Theory AORG350 Master's Thesis in Administration and Organizational Science SPRING 2016 Power and Politics in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Teams Barbara Victoria Ruiken II ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The process with this paper has been very rewarding in several ways, both personally and academically. I have of course learnt much about research methods and the academic process, much that I wish I knew before starting. I have also learnt new things about the sport that I love and sacrifice blood, sweat, and tears for. The thesis and the sport have been great supplements to each other, when one was hard and I was not making progress, the other was a sanctuary and provided success. There have been many people involved in the process that I am very grateful to. All respondents to the survey; this paper would not have been possible without you. Every single answer was appreciated and valuable. Thank you also to those who distributed the invitation to the survey. I am very grateful to my supervisor Professor Marit Skivenes (she supervised me in the semesters spring and fall 2015, and spring 2016), who allowed me to write about this unusual empirical field, and was with me every step of the way; encouraging me, giving good advice and protecting me from unwarranted criticism. Big thanks to the members of the research group PGI, for their valuable feedback in the past 10 months. Thank you, Eivind Windsrygg, for many fruitful discussions on the topic. Thank you; Daniel Bertina, Brad Wolfson, Miao Joris Gao, Dennis Brötzmann, Johannes Mella, and Kjetil Kausland for testing the survey, and Aslaug Drotningsvik and Simen Raudstein for proofreading the thesis.

  • The Secret of Fascia in the Martial Arts Sol Petersen
    The secret of fascia in the martial arts Sol Petersen We live in two worlds, one on either side of our skin. The very survival ofthe Ninja or the hunting wild cat is dependent on their alertness and pres- ence in both worlds. Body-Mindfulness is what I call this embodied awareness and aliveness. Its full expression is found in martial arts mas- tery. Body-Mindfulness is a calm, open state of present-time awareness ofinner and outer body experiences, including sensory stimulations such as pressure, touch, stretch, temperature, pain, tingling, physical movement and position in space, visual, auditory and olfactory impres- sions. An integral aspect of Body-Mindfulness is fascial awareness: the capacity to sense our body-wide network of myofascial tissue in still- ness and in movement. We can develop this skill and build the elastic potential of the connective tissue system (Chapter l) in fine, coordinated, controlled martial training such as tai ji, karate and kung fu forms, then actualise this controlled power in explosive high speed movements. The quest for ultimate power and awareness in self-defence and attack is an ancient one. Two thousand years ago the masters, who trained ten- don power, knew something intuitively that sci- ence has only recently validated. Shaolin training Figure 16.1 and tai ji masters both recognised the vital impor- tance of conditioning and strengthening the fas- Shaolin KungFu training develops fascial strength cia and connective tissues to build and protect the SiFu Pierre Yves Roqueferre body's Qi energy (life force). Since research has shown that it is the organ of sta- bility and the seat of our proprioception, the fas- new fascia research define fascia more broadly cia has finally received the attention it deserves.

  • Enhance Your Ground Skills
    KMG 2019 © Rune lind © KMG 2019 © Rune ENHANCE YOUR GROUND SKILLS INTRODUCTION The Krav Maga Global Ground Fighting Course (KMG GFC) has been designed to meet the ever growing popularity of how to move and fight on the ground, due to the popularity of grappling/wrestling related sports (GWRS), from Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and of course wrestling. All of which have extensive skills in takedowns, and some also in the concept of ‘cage work’ or ‘fighting off the cage’ Due to the impact of tournaments and competitions like the UFA, Bellator and M1, MMA is currently the biggest growing sport in the world. In conjunction with this, both the classic arts of Judo and Wrestling have been producing exceptional fighters for many years. If the average person things of Martial arts in today’s society, they will often think MMA due to its popularity, therefore the knowledge base on armbands, takedowns, guillotines and other GWRS related techniques are becoming widely known, and therefore used in situations of violence, even if they have not been formally trained. If we think back 20 years, rarely were these skills something that had to be considered. KMG is a horizontal system that works to solve emerging threats. The shift towards GWRS skills is something that must be address if KMG is to continue to be a complete system of self defence and fighting skills. KMG Instructors and Students must undergo training to recognise these types of specific skills, how to apply them and then how to defend against them.
