Temple Mindfulness 

​

Welcome to Temple, your ultimate destination for health, well-being, and martial arts. We are more than just a community hub and a martial arts school—we are a family. At Temple, we believe in the power of communication and positivity as essential skills for personal growth and living a meaningful, happy life. Our new project, Empowered Expression, focuses on nurturing communication abilities and fostering a positive mindset within our students.

 

Our Inspiration:

Drawing inspiration from Kung Fu, originating from China, and partly influenced by Buddhism, we embrace the principles of mindfulness and positive thinking. Just as the word "Chan" represents mindfulness in China, and "Zen" signifies a similar concept in Japan, Empowered Expression combines these elements to empower individuals through effective communication and cultivating a positive outlook.At Temple, we believe in the power of communication and positivity as essential skills for personal growth and living a meaningful, happy life.

Why Communication Matters:

Communication is a vital skill, not only within the realm of Kung Fu and movement but also in our day-to-day lives. The ability to express oneself positively and engage in meaningful conversations is key to building relationships, understanding others, and navigating life's challenges. At Temple, we recognize the importance of communication as an essential life skill and aim to help our students develop it.

 

Our Approach:

To help our students progress in their communication journey, we have implemented various strategies. Firstly, we encourage community interaction through our Temple training app, providing a platform for members to engage in discussions, share ideas, and support one another. Additionally, during in-person sessions, we create opportunities for conversation and encourage individuals to speak up, explain their progress, share their weaknesses, and seek ways to improve.

 

Promoting Positivity:

At Temple, we believe that positivity is a catalyst for personal growth and happiness. We encourage a positive mindset in every aspect of life, from simple everyday conversations to tackling more complex challenges like misfortune, injury, or loss. By focusing on the bright side and bringing happiness to those around us, we can create a ripple effect of positivity.

 

Assessment and Guidance:

To help students enhance their communication skills, we have developed a grading system that spans from beginner to elite levels. Through video-based assessments, individuals have the opportunity to speak for a designated time, showcasing their progress and applying the criteria specific to their level. Our assessment criteria include clarity, coherence, vocabulary usage, organization of thoughts, persuasive techniques, and the ability to engage with the audience effectively. By providing constructive feedback and guidance, we aim to support our students in their journey from novice to elite communicators.
