mental state?

can i ask which is the best mental state or frame of mind to train in? in a kickboxing/self defense class

 

Relaxed but energetic.

 

open minded & eager to learn

 

In a empty-minded Zen-like mind state, remove the mental clutter, be prepared to kill if necessary.... oops, sorry wrong thread

Open minded, relaxed yet critical (if that makes sense). Don't be scared to ask questions.

Thanx
