HOW DOES WING CHUN 135 IMPROVE YOUR CONFIDENCE AND WELL BEING ?

If your mind is not trained and is undisciplined then it will simply drift from one thing to another.

We help by training your mind to have laser-like focus.

Confidence comes from having 2 things.

The first is knowledge and the second is keeping the promises that you have made to yourself.

This not only applies to martial arts but in all areas of your life. 

We will train your body and your mind to have focus and clarity so that you can walk down the street with your head held high. Firstly, we will give you all the knowledge that you require in order to improve your self-defence and martial arts skills. Then we will help to train and discipline your mind so that your mind becomes your servant and not your master.

It is when the mind is untrained and you don’t keep the promises you made for yourself that the mind becomes your master and you lose confidence and start hating yourself for not fulfilling your dreams. 

Consider this example. 

If you make a promise to yourself, “I’m going to start my martial arts training every week so I can become stronger and fitter and learn to defend myself”. The first week goes past and all goes well and you start to feel the benefits of training and you feel good about yourself. 

The second week goes by and you miss one lesson because of another commitment. You tell yourself, “that’s ok it’s only one missed lesson”. No big deal right? I will get back on track next week.

The third week goes past and you feel tired from work and once again you miss training. You tell yourself, “that’s ok I will catch up next week”. The fourth week comes along and your mind tells you, “you missed so much training already why bother ?”. 

You then stop training even though you loved the first week and you knew and understood that you would benefit from it. 

You then feel downright rotten and lose all confidence and this vicious cycle happens for every new activity that you try because you did not keep the promise that you made to yourself by sticking to your new training routine. Sound familiar?

The problem wasn’t you, it was your untrained mind. You lost confidence because your mind was your master and you were the slave by listening to it. What if we could help you train your mind so that you were the master and not the slave?

We do this through a specially prepared series of breathing exercises that help you to develop focus and release the tension in your body and your mind. This breathing helps to silence the internal chatter so that you take over the reigns and learn to ignore the mind and become the real you. With this training over time your mind then becomes your slave and you become the master. 

This process helps you to develop more confidence and also gives you the discipline to then pursue and follow through on the things that you love to do. Another of our secret weapons is called Sil Lim Tao (small though) which is a form of standing meditation.

It is the first form of Wing Chun which contains all the hand movements of the art.  It helps you to not only control your mind through the meditative components but also at the same time teach you all the martial components of the art.
