Master's Message children's class discussion topic of the week.
Having a Sound Body Is when your body is fit, healthy, strong, flexible, and in good working order.
At Cobra Martial Arts we practice exercises and stretches so you develop and maintain a sound body.
If you have a sound body, you probably look great and feel great also, because if your body is sick, tired, or injured, you won't feel great. So, having a sound body also effects your mind and how you feel.
At Cobra Martial Arts we have two mottos:
"Sound Body, Sound Mind, Sound Spirit equals Self Mastery"
"Feel Great, Look Great, Be Great"
Can anyone tell me some things which will stop/prevent us from having a Sound Body?
Notes for instructor leading the discussion:
Eat healthy: Fruits and vegetables, all your dinner, lots of water. Avoid soft drinks and junk food.
Sleep: Listen to your parents when they tell you to go to bed. While you are asleep your muscles grow stronger, your body repairs itself, and recharges itself with energy.
Exercise:
You need to exercise twice every week to develop fitness and a healthy, strong body.
Attend two Cobra Martial Arts classes every week, as every class includes:
Fitness, heart and lung (cardiovascular) training
Strength training
Flexibility training
Balance training
Coordination training
Self Defence training
Personal Development and the teachings of Traditional Values teachings
Class Drill:
Paper Breaking
Instructors hold out strips of newspaper for students to break using various martial arts techniques called out by the instructor.
This is a fun way of practicing techniques, rather than always punch and kick into the air or pads, which can get boring. It is a way of disguising repetition.
Benefits: Develops speed and accuracy. Boosts students' confidence when they break through the paper. Increases excitement and motivation to train.
