“If you have to think in martial arts, you’re dead.
The 20-30 years of training you’ve had means you’ve internalized all the possible patterns and can direct all your attention to what is happening right now.”
This photograph depicts a martial art from India called Kalari, movement of the warrior.
Every Kalari has a seven-tiered platform that symbolizes the seven abilities each person must possess:
- Strength
- Patience
- Power to command
- Posture
- Training
- Expression
- Sound (Voice)
So there you have it.
