Arakan and the Physical Body

Arakan and the Physical Body


Arakan Martial Art is a very unique art that enables you to use your body to its best advantage. You will learn to connect with and move your body in very dynamic ways, in which you never thought possible. Several moving parts will come together as you begin to coordinate left and right, top to bottom, forwards and backwards; continuous movements from one to the other, becoming incredibly adaptable. These movements also works the body bilaterally which uses both brain hemispheres, potentially triggering neural plasticity. Your body and mind will become more adaptable, flexible and agile with training.

Our movements begin to benefit your body as you develop a greater understanding of body weight, momentum, body mechanics and moving with the path of least resistance. You will learn to coordinate your body using circular movements and flow and produce your movements with precision, speed and power. As you develop a greater control over your body, you become physically fitter, stronger and more agile. Your body, mind and heart will begin to strengthen and become more resilient and gain greater strength, flexibility, mobility, balance and coordination through your training.

If you have suffered an old sporting or work injury, or your movements are limited and are no longer able to enjoy your sporting endeavours, we would highly recommend giving Arakan a go. You will quickly notice your fitness increasing steadily; improving your overall health and well-being.

We believe that training Arakan Martial Art helps provide more balance in our life and when you are fully immersed in your training you will begin to see amazing results and attract more positive situations and outcomes in your life.

Martial arts - when you truly live it - is about far more than techniques. It’s a lifestyle, an identity, and a pathway to becoming the best version of yourself.
Especially for young men, stepping into martial arts can be one of the most powerful decisions you ever make.
Let’s go deep into why.

Fight Fatigue, Not Deadlines: The Martial Art That Helps You Reclaim Your Energy

Fatigue is the silent enemy of high performers.

You start the day strong, but by mid-afternoon you’re running on caffeine and willpower. Meetings blur together. Motivation drops. Focus fades. And by the end of the week, you're spent - physically flat, mentally scattered, emotionally dulled.

But here’s the truth: your energy isn’t gone - it’s just stuck. Trapped in stress, tight muscles, shallow breathing, and unspent movement.
