Malaysia Silat Expert, GM Dr Mohamad Nizam Mohamed Shapie leads the Malaysian delegation to 8th International Conference Of IMACSSS &
2019 Scientific Congress on Martial Arts and Combat Sports in Viseu, Portugal.
The central issue of the Congress is the scientific interpretation of
actions in broader contexts and cultures such as Martial Arts (MA),
Combat Sports (CS) or Self-Defence (SD), in relation to objectives
usually associated with human development (e.g., health, well-being,
education and culture).
Education and training of MA&CS Teachers and Instructors is a clearly medium to long-term objective across the world, with a growing presence in the environments of physical activity (health, well-being and fitness), sports (from basics of education to sport performance of different levels), school physical education (given the eclectic, inclusive and multilateral context of this school subject) and culture construction (practices as non-material and intangible heritages, folklore and multicultural natures). This trajectory, however, should be followed in coherent connection with research developed and practice in scientific centres.
