Meditation with Master Horst

ADVISE FOR STUDENTS

Don’t think that one training you attend in the week will make you fit. Fit enough to challenge the aim you have sat yourself. To become a martial artist, a warrior, a fighter in life you will have to master the discipline.
Therefore you can (should) do the following:

1. Make sure you attend at each single lesson. Give yourself the discipline to do so. There is only one reason not to come to the class, when your mother dies! I gave up martial arts training during my way through life for certain reasons several times. And I regret it! Reasons like, a new fiancee, work, interest in other things and as well of cause too lazy! Unfortunately I did not have the master to tell me what I tell you now.

2. Establish daily routine with some kind of exercise. I change between press ups, sit-ups, chin-ups on the bar.

3. Do breathing methods. More information about that you can find on our blog and there are lots of good books available and we learn it too in the class.

4. You don’t gain enough physical fitness by one class per week. So try to attend to another venue, which fits in your weekly routine. This can be swimming, another kind of sport.

5. My biggest idol, Master Bruce Lee said: “Jogging is the best method to get and stay fit.” Do it. It doesn’t cost anything.

6. Pick up meditation. Mind over matter. There are new appointments for meditation with Master Horst Lindenau available now at Ichinen Bridport.
