Cross-Training - 01/31/08 12:13 PM
Has anyone found that cross-training in a non-martial arts skill helped them in their MA practice? I have heard of sword masters training in calligraphy to improve their martial skills. There is also things like origami, bonsai tree, rock gardening, etc.. the traditional masters would also practice (at least in the movies).
For me, yoga has helped flexibility, learning Spanish helps to exercise some brain cells I need to remember kung fu techniques, and gardening reminds me of the need to cultivate through patience.
