Have ya'll seen this? Fighter in white shorts just pounding his opponent for 2 mins and 45 seconds, (they don't show much of it) then does this. . .
I don't think it's been lost, I just think many people think that you need lectures or meditation or chi gung or some other non martial process, whereas it is the hard work, self control, sportsmanship and dedication of everyday training that helps us build character.True enough. But also to be compassionate with your fellow man, especially when he is in need of that. WC is to build ones character in addition to fighting and self defense. I think Ip Man would agree. Building character - that's what's been lost in many modern MAs.
Hmm...not from what I've seen. Character is built as a byproduct within dedicated, hard training of a martial art.Building character - that's what's been lost in many modern MAs.
