[an error occurred while processing this directive] Contents Medical Psychology Coaching Nutrition Equipment Sportsmanship What Kids Say Finance Message Boards Parenting Tips [an error occurred while processing this directive] ATTENTION DEFICIT DISORDER: The martial arts can be a wonderful tool for helping kids with ADD stay focused by Rose Kennedy Walk into one of Ken Kaplan's classes at West Side Taekwondo, in New York City, and see if you can pick out the children who have Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD). If they've been coming to the class for a while, chances are you can't. "In the beginning, a lot of the kids with ADD are running when they're supposed to be waiting in line and talking when they're supposed to be listening. They're not focusing on the instructor or the task at hand," says Kaplan. "But as the weeks go by, that behavior is slowly extinguished." ADD is a neurobiological disability that interferes with an individual's ability to sustain attention and to control impulsive behavior. ADD affects up to five percent of all American children, ages five through 18. These kids need help learning to stay focused. Sports particularly the martial arts can be a wonderful tool for helping them do that. ADD kids benefit from the emphasis on structure and control found in taekwondo, karate, judo, and Aikido classes. "Martial arts training offers mental discipline and physical exercise," says Dr. Edward Hallowell of Harvard University, a child psychiatrist specializing in learning problems. "It provides kids with an ideal opportunity to master self-control."

20. Martial Arts Injuries Like the martial arts, rugby also has a injury one per 50 hours of individual participation,although In contrast, several other sports are significantly safer http://www.pponline.co.uk/encyc/0418.htm

martial arts injuries Martial arts injuries: When males and females take up martial arts, who gets hurt? As crime rates have expanded in Great Britain and the United States, concerns about personal safety have increased, and many people have decided to learn self-defence techniques by studying the martial arts. In the United States, for example, the number of martial arts enthusiasts has climbed past 200,000 and is still rising, even though very little information has been available concerning the actual safety of the sport itself. Some critics, sceptical of the merits of martial arts training, have suggested that you're more likely to be seriously hurt during a martial arts workout than you are to be hit on the head by a mugger. Now, new research carried out at George Washington University in the United States indicates that the injury rate associated with martial arts participation is comparable to the risk of injury in a hard-hitting sport like rugby, and higher than other popular sports such as running, squash, and tennis. In addition, females tend to have much higher injury rates than males. In the George Washington investigation, scientists studied 144 adult male and 30 adult female martial arts participants to calculate their frequency of injuries. The athletes engaged in a total of four different styles of martial arts - Chinese, Japanese-Okinawan, Southeast Asian, and Korean. Injuries primarily consisted of bruises, strains, sprains, and lacerations.
