Values

[fallenyuyu]

What do you most value in martial arts (experience, strength, speed, etc...)

[joesteph]

For my young children, personal development, both emotionally and physically. For myself, the opportunity to share, have an active role, in this development they're undergoing.

I'm assuming you mean how do you rank the attributes or methods that make one a skilled fighter.

It's a very complex answer with alot of nuances that really depends on what you want to do. You can also look at the question from numerous angles.

For myself, simply put, I value hard, realistic training that mimics reality as close as possible.

[bushido_man96]

I enjoy the challenge that training offers for me, physically. I also constantly think about different things when it comes to my training, and how I can do things to help me, should I need to apply the skills I have learned.

I guess I value the time I get to spend teaching and polishing my own skills. I love sharing with other students, whether they are children or adult.

Overall power. Nothing has more importance over the other.

[Tiger1962]

There's a variety of things I value in m.a. - becoming proficient and skillful in it brings me satisfaction - that's one of many things.

There is a lot of things that I value about ma, but the most important thing is my confidence. I carry myself with more confidence I am more sure of myself meaning, I do not question myself as often.

[granitemiller]

Confidence and Peace. MA has really helped my anxiety.

[KarateEd]

Picking just one is hard, but if I have too then I would say that I enjoy the challenge the most. I find that many of the other benefits are a consequence of the challenge itself, whether they be physical benefits, such as increased speed, or mental benefits, such as increased personal confidence.
