The research project looks at the way that Eastern Asian martial and movement arts (Aikido, Karatedo, Wushu, Taijiquan, Qigong) work and at the interaction between body and mind while practicing such forms of movement.
The starting point (step 1) is the traditional theory of Far Eastern movement practice, called Do-model. Therein, the practice of Eastern Asian forms of movement is described as a holistic exercise, meaning that movement, posture, breathing technique and attention are trained.
Secondly (step 2), a transfer of the Do-model will be made, with reference to theories of self-regulation as well as to the paradigm of synergetics. The result of this transfer is called self-regulation-model of Eastern Asian martial and movement arts.
Finally (step 3), specific aspects of the heuristc self-regulation-model will be researched empirically. The methods to be applied in this study are thermography, quantitative survey, and heart-rate-variability-measurement.
