Mental Martial Arts is the ultimate weapon for personal growth and self development:

The essence of ‘Sir Brian Sterling’s Mental Martial Arts’, is to be able to use and control your mental agility in combination with the adaptive principles, tactics and strategic skills that are the embodiment of the Physical Martial Arts. In doing so you will be able to control, guide and re-direct the energy of other people, corporations or institutions so that you can gain the advantage, even against more powerful opposition, in life, love and business.

I firmly believe that it is always better to win a conflict by simply not being in conflict, and that this path of harmony is the way to true peace and a richer, fuller life. Let me visualise that for you…

When one tiger avoids another tiger; does this make him the weaker of the two for doing so? Or is it that because both are powerful, strong and able to inflict massive devastation upon each other, they both know there would be no ultimate winner in a conflict?

The action of avoiding conflict, wherever possible, is not cowardice but simply the love of life and common sense.

Living in peace and harmony with the world and those around you is an essential element to mastering the true power of the incredible Chi energy that rests within all of us. This path of peace and harmony will also enable you to better understand the philosophy of my system of Mental Martial Arts, and its uses.

Some people simply spend their whole lives allowing others to ‘tell’ them what to do because it’s easier that way. When one partner in a relationship is insecure, they usually project their insecurities back to their partner by even telling them what to wear and what to think in some extreme cases. There are always SO many people who will offer you ‘good advice’ and say to you ‘better not take chances, better play it safe’, what they’re really saying is, ‘don’t follow your dreams’, usually because THEY didn’t!

I’m sure that when you pause and think about this for a moment that you will remember the countless ‘negative’ cautions and injunctions that you were given throughout your life, unless you were really lucky to have super-positive parents.

I believe that one of the greatest crimes is to see people go through life and then go to their grave with all their dreams, burning ambitions, deep-desires for change and to help others; still left as merely unfulfilled dreams.

However there is only ONE, Record Breakers, who offers the corporate world not only the ULTIMATE team building experience but one that, if successful, gains a Guinness World Record in the process!

The Record Breakers event can also legitimately share the costs wholly or partially between either HR or Marketing budgets, gain FULL non profit status Tax Exemption benefits AND which be widely advertised commercially because of the charitable status of Record Breakers!

Now add to the mix the proven event capability, a blue-chip client list including the likes of Eli Lilly Pharmaceuticals and that Mental Martial Arts training is also an Essential ingredient to achieving success, then you have nothing less than The Ultimate Team Building Event Experience!

In order to provide the ‘ULTIMATE’ Team Building Experience, the Mental Martial Arts approach is to be simply the best in the world, nothing short of this will do. Because if a team works towards a target, achieves the objective and in doing so become the BEST in the world in the process, then there can be NO better team building experience than that.

Sir Brian Sterling is president of Record Breakers non-profit organisation and has used his Mental Martial Arts Personal Empowerment techniques to achieve some very dramatic results. On the 19th of January 2005 he personally led the team which shattered the previous Guinness World Record, to set a staggering new Guinness World Record.

This meant that Sir Brian had not only created a hugely motivated delegate-team of super-enthused people for the client organisation, he had also ensured that EVERY delegate received the most incredible boost to their self-confidence, when they each became new Guinness World Record holders.

As a bonus, a significant sum of money was raused for the charities, Depression Alliance and the Tsunami Victims (Asian Tsunami 2004/5).

Mental Martial Arts was without doubt the key to being able to achieve this, along with the full support of the incredible Record Breakers team.

And according to its entrepreneurial creator, motivational speaker, strategic planner, Guinness World Record Holder and executive life coach guru Sir Brian Sterling, the new system promises to kick conventional business and marketing practices into the history books.

“Like Kung Fu, business success is all about sizing up the competition realistically, deflecting, blending, blocking and then countering a competitor’s attacks; ultimately the winning blow to defeat the opposition will come from the opposition themselves!

“In today’s aggressive business environment it is all about the survival of the fittest and conventional marketing and promotional methods invariable fail to deliver that vital and decisive ‘punch’.

Often in the time it takes to pause and think about how to handle an objection or what it will take to close a deal, you have lost, simple as that, it’s just like that in Kung Fu, when in combat, pause nor stop to think and the fight is over! You have to be able to respond to objections, changing circumstances and changes in the whole business environment quickly and as if it were second nature, again just like in Kung Fu

“The true skill and power of the Kung Fu practitioner lies in his ability to defend himself against seemingly impossible odds and situations. In business terms, this means that David really can defeat Goliath – that the small company really can defeat the big one.”

Brian only realised the full potential of his own system of Mental Martial Arts after successfully being awarded a major contract by one of the world’s biggest companies.

“Brian, together with Paul Andrew of Liverpool’s premier event production company, were pitching to win a large contract against some serious competition from some very big players in the industry and had to come up with an entirely innovative approach if we were to beat the big boys – Sir Brian Sterling’s Mental Martial Arts provided that ultimate solution.  It was one of those eureka moments!

“We came up with a totally original idea that outmatched and out manoeuvred the ‘conventional’ linear thinking of the competition and convinced the client that we were the right people to undertake the brief, the contract was won and ultimately fulfilled, leaving a very satisfied client wanting more!

Sir Brian Sterling’s Mental Martial Arts is unique in that even though it is a purely intellectual, business and executive life coaching training system, it is also the world’s very first business training system to be officially recognised as a martial art by the British Karate Association (BKA) and as such classified as a ‘Business Martial Art’.

Sir Brian Sterling’s Mental Martial Arts has provided a refreshingly new and exciting ‘sharp edge’ to all facets of business, embracing public relations, film documentaries, media training, events and conferencing and the wider areas of marketing and promotion. “It is now seen by many business professionals as the ace card in the modern business pack,” he said.

In 1988-89 he achieved 2 more world records in speed block breaking (martial arts) and then later on in 2005 he captured a Guinness World Record in plate spinning making a personal total of 5 World Records!
