Golpes de Puño.

Al analizar las características de un golpe o de cualquier movimiento, debemos considerar que incluye leyes físicas universales  para toda técnica y leyes de biomecánica especificas para cada ejecución. Cada golpe o movimiento son distintos y si bien comparten fuerza de gravedad, movimiento de rotación, de traslación, ritmo, contracciones musculares, intención, peso, rapidez… no todas participan de igual intensidad y eso lo designa el movimiento mecánico de cada   técnica.

No es bueno asociar solo la mano con un golpe de puño ya que en ese golpe interviene todo el cuerpo y más.

El movimiento del brazo en un golpe de puño no realiza una fuerza pareja sino que varía en el momento del impacto realizando una contracción muscular. Relajar, contraer y volver a relajar, relaja en la ida, contrae al momento del impacto y regresa relajado. La relación es fluidez y con ella se es rápido, la contracción nos lleva a la estática por lo que solo interviene fracciones de segundo en el momento preciso del impacto.

El golpe es el último eslabón de una cadena de reacciones sincronizadas que  nace de la interacción pie-suelo, continua subiendo por las piernas hacia la cadera  que con un giro la proyecta hacia una correcta posición de hombros que se alinean con el codo y la muñeca para luego focalizar toda la fuerza  en el impacto de los nudillos momento en el que se bloquean las articulaciones del cuerpo. La anteriores no son etapas separadas, se mueve el pie, la cadera, los hombros, el codo y la mano en total fluidez y coordinación en un solo movimiento pero respetando el orden.

Al golpear podemos medir algunos aspectos

1.       Kime: La potencia del golpe dada por el factor masa-rapidez, siendo a más peso y veloz más potente el golpe.

2.       Precisión, el cálculo correcto de la distancia hasta el punto de impacto.

3.       La duración del impacto, dependiendo si es de percusión (Keague) será menor o de penetración (Kekomi) que será mayor.

4.       La correcta ejecución de la cadena de  reacciones.

5.       La técnica de quien golpea (la práctica hace al Maestro)

6.       La contracción muscular al momento del impacto.

7.       La intención de quien ejecuta, el aspecto mental.

A continuación un video instructivo básico de golpes de puño.

Do you want more students?

For those professionally dedicated to the Martial Arts have students need to fulfill the legacy of discipline to solve the economy.

Attracting students deserves a comprehensive study by the way, is simple in application.

Here I give tips to attract students.

CLASSES IN COLLEGES:

The largest source of potential students in colleges or schools. For this we must prepare a project presented to the authorities of the establishment. (But you have a project for schools, contact me and I give you one). To be effective uptake and the school is identified with the project should consider a low monthly fee (cheap). If we talk about Europe, taking as an example Spain, charge 10 euros per month, with 5 schools (one per day) to 20 students each school are 100 pupils and in total 1000 euros per month. (For 2 hours each day to work in the afternoon), perhaps you need only two schools with 50 students or one with 100 students.

The same last example to South America taking Chile as a reference, 5 thousand pesos a month, 100 students are 500 thousand pesos.

To this number of students, adding the income gradings, sale of costumes, insignias or other.

100 students is only a reference, can be 500 or 1000 will depend on the work and management of each teacher, the sky is not the limit.

ADVANTAGES OF TEACH IN COLLEGES

Easy to attract students, local cost savings and accident insurance.

OTHER INSTANCES

If you already have your training room or colleges or motivate you only have time to develop the activities in your current place, then you should pay attention to digital marketing. Today out flyers or putting up posters is not recommended, therefore the environmental impact as the monetary cost and logistics involved. We are in a digital age that only 4% of the population does not use a Smartphone (smartphone), almost all use social networks. Facebook is who monopolizes the first of the networks, follow Twitter, Instagram, rhetoric, Google + ... It is in these networks where we publicitarnos, is a social instance, trustworthy, the best way to reach people and provoke action. Each school should have its own facebook page (not the same as the personal profile) on page display your work, people will come to that page to see if they find what they seek. Make digital posters is simple and free, if you do not have the knowledge you can ask a student, family member or acquaintance who do this work (it will be happy). Upload, photos, writings ... label your students, family, friends in order to reach as many people. Upload digital posters to local groups (another instance of facebook) as are buying and selling, leisure, interest groups and even churches, everyone is a potential student.

Print advertising (flyers and posters) are recommended only if it is targeted, for example at school that you have about your training room or a sporting event.

If you have questions or you are interested to delve deeper into the subject matter hereof, send me a message and I'll help where I can with the best disposition.

Then leave a sample letter project to be presented in schools, can copy, paste and edit freely.

Philosophy of Colors and Belts

Belts and Colors

The story goes that after World War II Japan and Korea had few resources so an inexpensive and effective way to differentiate levels and maintain the status given to martial arts was dyed belts.
At first the white belt was dyed in each grade advancement and increasingly darker colors dealt to black, with the order; white, yellow, orange, green, blue, brown and black.
Similarly philosophical history shows us a more poetic forms being the following one:

White: Home (represents the seed under the snow) A student white belt
is a beginner in search of knowledge, the beginning of the cycle of life. A blank page to be written.

Yellow: Ascending force (represents the first rays of sun shining on the seed) A yellow belt is the recipient of the first ray of knowledge to open his mind to the teachings and inside a superior force.

Naranjo: Force established (representing the sun shining on the seed and heating the earth as a sign of growth) Orange belt is the student who begins to feel his body in harmony with the art, the mind is open and understood. His inner strength is already stable.

Green: Growth (represents the sprouting of the seed into the sun) Here the student begins to grow in art, strengthens your body, it is a cycle of energy in abundance.

Blue: Stability and Fluidity (represents the plant toward the sky and fluidity of air) Blue belt enjoys technical and physical strength, sets the sky as its limit and is fluent in its ascent.

Brown Belt: Maturation (represents the fruits, harvest) is an advanced student with knowledge of the power of their techniques, understand the fruits of work done. He knows that the road has just begun and is preparing to make the trip.

Black: dark, empty. (Beyond the sun) The black belt seeks a deeper understanding of art knowledge, sees the light in the darkness beyond the sun from vacuum and teaches new seeds to grow and mature, knowing that some seeds will continue the endless cycle life.
The colors can also be represented symbolically with the seasons, the elements, animals ... and every representation increases our heritage of Martial Arts.

Filosofía de los Cinturones y Colores

Cinturones y Colores

Cuenta la historia que luego de la segunda guerra mundial Japón y Corea tenían escasos recursos por lo que una manera barata y eficaz de diferenciar los niveles y mantener el estatus dado a las artes marciales fue teñir los cinturones.

En un principio el cinturón blanco se teñía en cada avance de grado y se ocupaban colores cada vez más oscuros hasta llegar al negro, siendo el orden; blanco, amarillo, naranja, verde, azul, marrón y negro.

De igual manera la historia filosófica nos muestra unas formas más poéticas siendo la siguiente una de ellas:

Blanco: Inicio (representa la semilla bajo la nieve) Un estudiante cinturón blanco

es un principiante en busca de conocimiento, el comienzo del ciclo de la vida. Una hoja en blanco lista para ser escrita.

Amarillo: Fuerza ascendente (representa los primeros rayos de sol brillando sobre la semilla) Un cinturón amarillo es quien recibe el primer rayo de conocimiento para abrir su mente a las enseñanzas y su interior a una fuerza superior.

Naranjo: Fuerza establecida (representa el sol brillando sobre la semilla y calentando la tierra en señal de crecimiento) El cinturón naranja es el estudiante que comienza a sentir su cuerpo en armonía con el arte, la mente está abierta y entiende. Su fuerza interior ya es estable.

Verde: Crecimiento (representa el brote de la semilla en dirección al sol) Aquí el estudiante comienza a crecer en el arte, fortalece su cuerpo, es un ciclo de energía en abundancia.

Azul: Estabilidad y Fluidez (representa la planta en dirección al cielo y la fluidez del aire) El cinturón azul goza de técnica y fortaleza física, establece al cielo como su límite y es fluido en su ascenso.

Cinturón Marrón: Maduración (representa los frutos, la cosecha) Es un estudiante avanzado con conocimiento del poder de sus técnicas, entiende los frutos del trabajo realizado. Sabe que el camino recién comienza y se prepara para realizar el viaje.

Negro: Oscuridad, vacío. (más allá del sol) El cinturón negro busca un conocimiento más profundo del arte, ve la iluminación en la oscuridad más allá del sol desde el vacío y enseña a las nuevas semillas a crecer y madurar, sabiendo que algunas semillas continuarán el ciclo interminable de la vida.

Los colores también se pueden representar simbólicamente con las estaciones del año, los elementos, animales... y cada representación aumenta nuestro acervo de las Artes Marciales.
