Training Methodology

Traditional Forms

Scientific Technology

Scientific Technology

Martialarts originated as ancient combat techniques. Depending on the form, they involve performing technical and often explosive moves such as kicks, punches, and throws; some types use swords, bow and arrow, or other weapons.

In addition to the discipline and physical exercise, martial arts appealed to his technical mind. Thalken, who earned his doctorate in physics from the USC Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences in 2006, began thinking about the ways that skills such as punching and kicking could be improved if fighters better understood their scientific properties 

Sports Injury Science

Scientific Technology

Modern Training Methodology

A sports injury can be defined as a pathologic process that interrupts training or competition and may lead the athlete to seek medical treatment. Sports injuries are usually divided into two basic types: those resulting from macrotrauma and those associated with overuse and repetitive microtrauma.

Modern training delivery methods, such as gamification, video, social media, virtual reality and 3D modeling, can transform how businesses train employees by enhancing the learning experience and engagement for maximum content retention and, yes, even fun. 

Skill Development

Modern Training Methodology

Health and Physical Fitness

Skill Development is for determining the skill gaps and overcome them. Skills are required to define one’s ability and this ability is the sole reason behind the successful implementation of plans. 

Health and Physical Fitness

Modern Training Methodology

Health and Physical Fitness

Physical fitness is a state of health and well-being and, more specifically, the ability to perform aspects of sports, occupations and daily activities. Physical fitness is generally achieved through proper nutrition, moderate-vigorous physical exercise, and sufficient rest.

Research in martial arts biomechanics is expanding, nevertheless it portrays a similar trend that tends to focus on offensive techniques. Supposedly, defensive techniques are of equal importance in martial arts. Therefore, more biomechanics investigations pertaining to defensive techniques in martial arts should be carried out. In addition, the data presented in this review could provide significant knowledge to support future research in martial arts biomechanics 

Martial Arts History and Philosophy

Martial Arts Research and Education

Martial Arts Research and Education

Modern historians of East Asia have noted the seemingly incongruous presence of martial monks in Buddhist monasteries at various moments in Asian history. 

Martial arts cover a broad range of activities that involve fighting techniques, physical exercises, and methods of mental discipline, among other skills. Martial arts originated in the ancient cultures of Asia, and are used today around the world for self-defense, exercise , health, spiritual growth, law enforcement, and athletic competition

Human Anatomy and Physiology

Martial Arts Research and Education

Sports Science and Physical Education

Human anatomy is the scientific study of the body’s structures. Whereas anatomy is about structure, physiology is about function. Human physiology is the scientific study of the chemistry and physics of the structures of the body and the ways in which they work together to support the functions of life.

Sports Science and Physical Education

Sports Science is a discipline that studies how the healthy human body works during exercise, and how sport and physical activity promote health and performance from cellular to whole body perspectives. The study of sports science traditionally incorporates areas of physiology (exercise physiology), psychology (sport psychology), anatomy, biomechanics, biochemistry, and biokinetics. Sports scientists and performance consultants are growing in demand and employment numbers, with the ever-increasing focus within the sporting world on achieving the best results possible. Through the scientific study of sport, researchers have developed a greater understanding on how the human body reacts to exercise, training, different environments and many other stimuli.

Martial Arts Culture and Heritage

Sports Science and Physical Education

Martial Arts Culture and Heritage

Martial Arts Intangible Cultural Heritage are skills, practices, expression and instruments which form the transmitted practices of local cultures through generations and provide sense of identity, continuity, respect, diversity and creativity to the concerned communities.


Kerala's martial art form Kalaripayuttu, the Buddhist chanting from Leh and Kargil, the practice of tying turbans or safa in Rajasthan, Ramlila, Gujarat's Patola silk or the making of rice beer in Manipur—these come together as traditions that have defined our heritage through centuries 

Martial Arts Psychology

Sports Science and Physical Education

Martial Arts Culture and Heritage

Martial Arts Sport psychology, in particular, can enhance the performance of a martial arts student, through the development of mental skills. Behavioral conditioning contends that physical practice leads to better, more efficient performance.


Those who are students of martial arts understand that there is an enormous mental component to the practice. Just as martial arts can improve mental health – thanks to its tenets and philosophies that relate to self-discipline, integrity, and other positive traits –psychology can also inversely help improve martial arts technique
