Philosophy - Training Contents - Goal
The goal of the basic professional training leading to a diploma as martial-arts teacher is to give the students various physical and mental 'tools' in the form of physical techniques and theoretical knowledge, and to impart the respective use. How, when, and if these 'tools' are finally being used, depends on the individual. Important elements in the training are a.o. the promotion of autonomy and independence. The module 'self-management and psychology' is also an important framework for the virtues the student is striving to realize, as e.g. patience, discipline, attentiveness, respect, compassion, clarity, honesty, and sense of responsibility.
In general, art (in total as well as in an individual work) is characterized by the interplay of contents and form. The student is being taught the martial 'art' in whole, as a philosophy, and a way of life.
The 3-year extra occupational basic professional training based on modules will qualify you to be a professional martial-arts teacher in the Yong Chun Quan Kung Fu style by WU LIN.
