Change

Last night Sifu Sarah talked about change and how great martial arts training is to enable us to cope with change in our lives. In our training we are constantly learning how to change and adapt, continually put in situations where we need to adapt and rethink our approach. Change is challenging and disturbing, particularly if you are anything like me who feeds on stability and an understanding of the situation. Our martial arts training allows us to cope with the situations in life where there are sudden changes that occur which uproot us and create anxiety. During these times when it seems that we don't have the time or energy for our training are the very times we need it most.
