Application of academic research

INTRODUCTION

This article attempts to highlight the many scientific aspects of martial arts and natural sciences and how they are of real interest and value as objects of research by various specialists. They demonstrate their value to researchers of other disciplines and offers a wealth of material potential to investigate, test and catalog. In fact, they are an extremely rich resource has been largely neglected completely, with oneSome brave and / or curious even bother to consider.

It will encourage the efforts of the IMAS and research is difficult to promote education, training, research and skills in martial arts and sciences, and in so doing, making them increasingly accepted as a school subject matter is very real and worth it.

FACETS ACADEMIC slightly by FOUND Martial Arts and Sciences

The researchers found in the following disciplines would be veryvalue in martial arts and the sciences:

Before Anthropology

Anthropology is the scientific study of man in all times and in all types of societies, cultures, civilizations and situations. The origin of anthropology, both in the natural sciences and humanities can be found. This raises questions like: What defines a man? Because they tend to behave like us? Why us in particular to develop belief systems?

So it is easy to see from the abovethat martial arts and sciences on this very subject specialization, particularly in so-called "Cultural Anthropology", a subdivision, which will focus tends to offer "anthropology", or the study of certain types of systematic comparisons between different cultures. For example: A famous author wrote and published a definitive work on the European knight. This book was very well received, and a few years later, the same person to another job, write thisLater, the Japanese samurai, the comparisons between the two, while some elements are also differences in attitudes and behaviors of individuals. (We can from this example one of the many "crossover", which is often considered among the academic disciplines. This author wrote such works as a historian, even though they could be well presented (with a slight modification in the context) as an anthropological text)

The comparison between the various warrior casteand its native martial arts studio would be a perfectly acceptable to commit any cultural anthropologists around and engender a wealth of interesting data for the researcher (s).

First Philosophy

Philosophy deals with the life of the really big issues like who we are? And why are we here? The meaning of truth and life itself, etc. There are many different schools of philosophy, as well as different areas of study (epistemology, logic, etc.), but the areas thatwould be of particular importance in the field of martial arts, and aesthetics (which deals with being with art) and ethics (which deal with morality, duty, ruthless and generally "the right thing for right reasons)

The martial arts is extremely important for schools of Eastern philosophy, which originated in religions such as Buddhism and Taoism, but some European schools also very interesting, especially the Stoics, which dealsControl of emotions and of existentialism of Nietzsche, Kierkegaard and Sartre, among others, that the theory that man take full responsibility for the human condition, rather than simply blame on "Destiny" or "God."

According to Psychology

Psychology is the study of functions of the human spirit. This perception, cognition, personality and behavior, etc. This has too many schools (behaviorism, cognitivism and humanism, etc.) andDepartments (such as education, industrial, etc.) would, however, the use of martial arts most psychologists, the following aspects are examined:

Or Anger Management
conflict resolution or
or stress management
O Sport Enhancement
or Education
or Performance Coaching
O, etc.

There are a lot of interest, so that martial artists use certain spiritual disciplines or "mentality" if you want. The ability, their mental and physical controlApplication that the ordinary meat and bones to break hard objects may, for example.

be the psychology of war and the mentality of the traditional warrior castes may also be able to shed light on the causes of dandruff and treatment of certain aspects of mental health by modern soldiers, in particular, suffered post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) that so many so much misery Caused. So, once again, the martial arts have much to offer from a psychologicalPosition.

Third Sociology

Sociology is the study of human society and behavior. It includes such things as manage the way in which culture and society influence the individual and how individuals find their place in the larger system of things, and focuses on building a body of knowledge about the effects that such things as religious and political beliefs have on attitudes and behaviors of communities and society as a whole.

Until recentlyThe members of local communities managed quite strong and close relations with each other. They went to the same school, he relaxes in the bar or coffee itself, and prayed in the same church or temple. These days, most have changed. Parents really move on poles and another area to try to get their child in school Their choice because the system Improved transport people tend to travel more if you do not want to go for a night out and that manyPeople are so devoted to their religious customs as they were before. And even if they are, you can now worship in many temples and churches, and you can with your cut, or even change your whole religion, almost every week!

Because of these changes in social structure, people today are much more independent co-dependent. In Britain, in particular, our churches and public buildings arrested at an alarming rate, so that theseProcess will continue and accelerate, perhaps a bit '.

In this climate, local martial arts clubs tend to stand as bastions of resistance in the community. The vast majority are run by people local population and represent a real and concrete contribution to their communities: play to keep martial arts coach to continue to play an important role in their communities healthier and safer, and can also exert an enormous impact on children and young people arethem for teaching. They participate in important events in their local environment, how to put on display at garden parties and festivals, and act in fundraising activities for charitable purposes, etc. This will really help martial arts clubs, as the "cement" of communities, draws virtually all types of people to gather in a spirit of trust and respect. So, as teachers, we must be aware of this fact: our area of influence extends well beyond the mat, inFamily unity and the community as a whole.

find sociologists with an interest in historical aspects of their science would be very interested in martial arts such as wars always have a central role in shaping the society we live in the selection, training and performed martial arts warrior, with their strict code of ethical conduct, had a great influence not only so that wars were fought, but also in developed countries and finally cameBe.

Therefore, martial arts will prove a rich source of historical and contemporary sociology.

Fourth Theology / Religious Education

The martial arts in every country have always been very strong religious beliefs and philosophies of certain influences. Even today you can see the residue of these influences very clearly, not only in different stories our art, but also the traditions and rituals Which still so much a part of them. IfWe expect that the historical roots and many combat systems, we find the monks, priests and philosophers maintain them and help them develop and even invent everything.

survived, in fact, were it not for the warrior-monks of many cultures and societies, martial arts then we all know, love and learn, Perhaps not today. This is especially true when you look at these arts Gatka from India, Shaolin Kung Fu in China, some types of BersilatKyudo Malaysia and Japan. Each of these martial arts are inextricably and permanently connected to a religion and philosophy, each maintains some aspects of this apparent in their training schemes and philosophies. Still other martial arts such as Thai-boxing and sumo wrestling, clearly still bear traces of theology to some of their practices, special blessings, prayers, rites and rituals as part of theirCompetitions.

Historically fifth

As mentioned earlier, the war and religion are two of the sharpest tool in the formation of human culture and society in question. In this way, one could argue that the martial arts and sciences have helped to build and destroy both kingdoms and nations. Fight and use weapons that are so old in fact even before our own species: The great apes have shown that coarse strategy and tactics, and amending sticks showforms of primitive spear. The most primitive weapons would stick, stone and bone, and any combination of martial arts practice now, as a time of transition was also healthy, in the truest sense of the instruments. It was the battlefield research experiment that most martial arts and sciences, their roots and continued development, from antiquity to have up to now, with people like Fairbairn and Styer, and change the traditionalThe techniques found in Japanese and Chinese systems in order to make more efficient use of the 20 Century come to conflict, the IDF has developed Krav Maga, and the U.S. Marine Corps with their martial arts military programs today, the 'help to prepare young people for the Marines and battles, both physically and mentally. These constant changes are a necessary part of evolution, where only the fittest survive.

Historians are already very interested inMartial arts. So you have serious researchers who immerse themselves in the weapons and armor of the past. Furthermore, we are very prestigious institutions as the Imperial War Museum, the deal Actually a martial artist and Master of Arms, to demonstrate their skills, so the general public a rare chance to see historic struggle "is close." Martial arts are actually pieces of "living history" that historians and citizens with a singleInsight into the past.

In addition to the above, there are several other disciplines that would find great interest and value in the study of martial arts. The practice of martial arts techniques itself contains a very large amount of scientific applications. Anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, kinetics, etc., are all very real part of each training session. Health & Wellness, Sports Science, Coaching and teaching methods have their place. It 's time that the martial artsand Sciences have been recognized and accepted as a rich collection of knowledge that they really are.

CONCLUSION

All the above is already a reality (although very sporadic.) Research papers were presented by researchers from different disciplines in recent decades. However, there are not enough of this valuable research on the martial art itself, be taken too seriously, a subject worthy of rigorous scientific investigation of its own, with very fewparticular aspects of scientists of various disciplines studied. It must be said, most of the teachers within the Institute (including myself) have of course all for academic training and acquired skills in various academic disciplines, with the exception of the martial arts and sciences, simply because there not the opportunity for us to art that we all loved to practice and teach the research. In a sense, helped make both our facultystrong and diverse. But now it's time to martial arts came to be "age" as a school subject in its own right. In fact, this is one of the main reasons why the Institute has started, and remains a primary goal.

Earlier this year, organized by the Institute of Martial Arts and Sciences to its first conference. It 'was a small thing, but never the less interesting part of the research was submitted and presented. It is hoped that this research willpublished shortly so that others may provide access to and perhaps inspired to research their own behavior. In addition, faculty members increasingly difficult to work together to create learning connections with many other schools and universities around the world, and constantly publishing books, articles and letters in both print magazines and martial arts. Thus, already begun. The face of martial arts has been irrevocably changed for the better, thanks to a handful of poorprovides academics, researchers and educators that is to be very popular martial arts. Both those few who have finally made it possible for the martial arts, not only on the mat in a Martial Arts Club will be considered sports arena and even on the battlefield, but also in classrooms and conference rooms. Martial artists can now sit academic tests and exams immediately qualifying exam. And they can get valuable academic, professional, accreditedQualifications as a belt or band, and these skills are outside the Martial Arts Club see it. The martial arts and those who are now at the beginning of practice for the status and recognition that they deserve to win big.
