  • Gomes, a devout Christian, focuses on Breath, Mind, Spirit during his talk and how simple meditation and breathing techniques can improve health and return balance to life.
    Sifu Jurey Gomes is a recognised and decorated martial arts practitioner and founder of the Fist of Nothingness system of martial arts. His interest in the discipline began in 1974 at the Antigua Grammar School where he was taught.
    From 1980 to present Sifu Gomes has been entering (and winning) international martial arts competitions.
    He holds a first degree black belt from the National College of Martial Arts (NCMA) in Missouri, USA; second degree black belts from both the International Kyodai Ryu Karate Academy, Puerto Rico and Go-Ju-Ryu Karate Academy; and a fifth degree black belt in Wu’chikwon-do Karate. Sifu Gomes also teaches the popular Tai Chi Chuan style of Chinese martial arts.
    Throughout his exploration of Eastern combat styles, Sifu Gomes has found spirituality to be at the core of all disciplines and he has studied with the Universal Foundation of Taoism, a Chinese philosophy rooted in harmony, for over 25 years.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    martial arts is a mental art of focus & acuity...it's a spiritual art that comes from India, via Africa, through yogic meditation & a centering that comes there from. it's only a physical art in the end result, which is that last 5%-10% of what it actually means to practice the art fully. it is your spirit that moves your body and your mind that can direction your spirit.

    Umm yeah had some interesting points but kinda felt like a cross between a sermon and a martial arts philosophy class...I guess those were the prime archetypes of his consciousness.. there did seem to be a theme...

      I agree with you, religion is about worship and prayer, Martial arts spirituality is about becoming. This guys talking about becoming but with the perspective of a preacher.

    what did he talking about?
    lol

      He was talking about the bodies correlation with the mind and soul or spirit, that it is not you the physical being that wants things or makes things happen but more the spirit guiding the mind and the mind guiding the body to commit such action. BAM! 🥊⚡ ..... That is why he said it "BAM!" to make you realize that without action there can be no change, but first action must begin in the heart/soul/spirit/dan tien etc etc for the rest to follow through.
      You must first dream of something for it to begin to realize in your mind, then as it realizes in your mind your body begins to understand what actions do to bring about such things the soul has dreamt of. 🙏🏽⛩️

      When you begin to see past visual things, then yet does your wants, needs and dreams come to fruition.
