Skills That Martial Arts Can Teach You That Don't Involve Hurting Anyone

    1. Language

    You'll learn new terminology (unless the Martial Art is native to the same country you are, I suppose).

    2. Dancing

    You could probably pass some moves or forms off as dancing, if you've got the guts.

    3. Safe Falling

    Breakfalling can save your life. Take it from me.

    4. Meditation

    Many martial arts start and/or end class with a meditation session.

    5. Respect For The Chain of Command

    You submit to the authority of those more experienced in the art; age, gender etc. do not matter.

    6. Tying Knots

    Those belts don't tie themselves

    7. Anatomy

    How the musculoskeletal system functions especially.

    8. Memorization

    Whether it's a ceremony or a pattern of movements, you can increase your ability to store things in your head.

    9. Calmness in the Face of Adversity

    Not panicking when you get hit or at the notion of someone trying to hurt you is valuable.

    10. Focus/Listening/Learning

    The purpose of the meditation is to leave the outside world on the outside and devote the lesson time to learning the art.
