A couple of years ago I attended a course where we practiced and aimed to improve several useful transferable skills. Among the exercises we did was one which was about going into a room, sitting down and answering questions of several interviewers. One of us who was selected for this exercise had been studying a martial art for a long time (I think he did kyokushin karate) and his performance was better than the others' (people not being interviewed were observers). The course leaders said that people studying martial arts are naturally better at interviews and, generally, in stressfull situations.
