Sensei = teacher - listen and you will learn

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

Challenge yourself to be better than you were before; being better than someone else is not important

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

Sparring = learn and improve, not win

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

A winner never quits and a quitter never wins

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

A winner can lose, but only a loser gives up

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

White through to Black - everyone takes that first step/the hard step is the first step

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

1st Dan = 1st Step - it is the beginning, not the end

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

Always look at your sparring partner’s eyes – not their gloves

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

Focus on focus mitts – mirror your partner

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

If you see your opponent thinking, immediately attack!

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

Subconscious thought is faster than conscious thought – don’t over-think your moves

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

Relax to move faster – explode into action

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

[TheMartialArtsCentre @TMACBraintree]

If you are not fit enough to run away, you are not fit enough to fight
