Self Defense at Boston Martial Arts Center

There are many ways to train in self-defense.  At the Boston Martial Arts Center, we look at building your awareness and understanding of your natural tools you have in a careful and structured way. One of the first skills in self-defense is learning how the body and mind work together as one.

I was working on kenjutsu last week and was moving with my training partner changing kamae (position based on what my spirit is sensing in relation to a changing environment). This requires the mind and body to stay sharp, because if your mind floats for one moment you could be in over your head. A good starting place on how not to get in over your head is “Stay in the moment, not before or after.”

The longer we train in martial arts, the deeper we come to understand ourselves. This deep understanding comes from first training with the physical techniques and then studying the effect the training has on us. If you train with a sincere heart, you can gain great value from martial arts.
