WIT

A unique scientific approach to combat psychology.

WIT represents a unique approach to combat psychology by offering an unprecedented integration of scientific disciplines that sets it apart from any existing program available out there.

Utilising exclusively resources validated by peer-reviewed journals, our research and publishing follow human-centred psychological approaches and the ethical guidelines set by research authorities.

Why traditional
approaches fall short?

#1

Combat is not sport.

Due to the loose definition of sport, combat when done regularly can be labelled as sport. But there is no psychological similarity between running a marathon and being punched in the face.

#2

Stress is not in the head.

Stress is the scientific name for emotions. Accordingly, it is not a thought circle but a chemical reaction, and as such, it fundamentally changes the condition and responsiveness of the body.

#3

Performance stress is not the issue.

Contrary to popular belief, competition stress is not primarily due to performance stress in combat sports. It is caused by combat stress, which involves deeper layers of the brain than traditional approaches could access.

Our multi-disciplinary
framework.

The knowledge combination provided by combining learning psychology, biomechanics, fitness, and cognitive and clinical psychology concepts is a revolutionary approach to combat psychology, creating a cohesive system that tackles the unique challenges of close combat competitions.
