The Yin Yang Of The Element Fire | Life Skill Martial Arts

If you look at our Life Skill Alter, you can see Chinese character for Fire 火 turned upside down.
Fire can represent Kung fu Spirit, or Warrior Spirit. What does Warrior Spirit Conquer? Fear. And Fear is the source of many of our Mental, Emotional and Physical illnesses and challenges. 
Other hand,  Too much fire destroys. So, we learn to put the fire down to learn Patience and Self Control. When emotions get “Heated” this can make our life situations worse.  If we allow anger or fear to rule day is unlikely we solve problems/ grow from challenges.  So we learn a lot from this character.
We can learn that fire can represent 2 important Life Skills that we need to master to make our life simpler and more enjoyable.  Life Skill students learn:
1. Kung Fu Spirit to conquer our fears AND…
2. Patience/Self Control to grow and learn from our life challenges. 
This is the Yin Yang of the element Fire.
