b'Gordon talks to Ivan Rolls, the creator and developer of \\u2018Bullied To Black-Belt\\u2019, a course of instruction designed to help bullied youngsters who may be having trouble dealing with the mental aspect of being bullied.\\nBy examining his own legacy, and by reflecting upon his own experiences, Ivan came to the realisation that by instilling the core values and principles of martial arts into children, he could help shape a healthy, confident generation; one able to stand up to bullies not just for themselves, but also on behalf of others.\\nKey Takeaways\\nIvan began in martial arts as a child, attracted to the discipline and routine of martial arts training, dabbling in a few different disciplines and honing his skills over the course of his adolescence. \\nDespite his martial arts training, Ivan found himself repeatedly bullied as a child, and found the mental aspect of this bullying increasingly difficult to deal with. Martial arts training often teaches that your training is not to be used in these situations.\\nIvan was subsequently instructed to see his physical symptoms of fear not as detrimental, but signs that adrenaline was rising; literally a physical readiness growing inside him, and designed to allow him to deal with the bullying.\\nChanging the perception of martial arts is crucial, not just for youngsters, but also for parents, who may see brief examples of violence and fear that it is a detrimental pursuit. But martial arts also teaches patience, discipline and commitment.\\nBy constructing a well-designed package of materials for not just students but educational environments, Bullied To Black Belt aims to demonstrate that bullying is a negative force, and that it can be defeated by celebrating everyone\\u2019s unique qualities.\\n\\nBEST MOMENTS\\n"I like working out what works, or what REALLY works\\u201d\\n\\u201cYou\\u2019re not scared.
