Well to me Martial Arts means respect and discipline. I have trained in
different Martial arts now for much more than twenty years.
I have seen several people stick around but one thing that I
have noticed happens to be the respect and discipline having changed those peoples perception of life.
Young children that have started that have been on the wrong side of
the tracks, always in trouble and no idea how to respect other kids.
Place them in a controlled environment with discipline and fighting and they soon start to understand.
Martial arts is one way for teenagers and adults to get rid of their aggression without hurting or bullying anyone.
Wow that was odd. I just wrote an extremely long
comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn’t show up.
