Lessons in Self-Mastery with the modern day Bruce Lee - Martial Artist Alan La
Manage episode 336021427 series 3344702
My conversation over a delicious brew of Tiger Purrr Chai today is with the irrepressible Alan La.
Known as the modern-day Bruce Lee, Alan is a hall of fame martial artist, best-selling author and Founder of Invincible Worldwide, a global movement with over 100,000 followers. Through world-class training and programs, he empowers heart-centered heroes, teaching not just physical strength, but the strength of mind, heart and spirit.
I first met Alan 15 years ago after the birth of my second child as I was searching for a private martial artist trainer. I wanted someone who understood not only high performance but deep performance. With two black belts myself, I understand that teaching must encompass more than just physical strength.
This is where Alan stands out from the rest. He understands that martial arts are about self-mastery.
In our conversation, we go back to where Alan grew up, a rough neighbourhood in west Sydney close to where I was raised. We reminisce on the early days of learning martial arts and how his stages of learning progressed from amateur to artist.
Everything with Alan is artistry, self-discovery, creativity. We talk about the parallels between martial arts and the journey of life, the lessons from the lows and how they got him to where he is now.
We talk about tapping into timelessness, allowing creativity and artistry to flow through us, seeing the beauty and absorbing lessons from everyone and every moment in life.
Alan is a man who has achieved many great things, and yet he is unattached to them all. Moving out of ego, transcending competition and into self-mastery, he says that connection to something greater makes every moment extraordinary.
