  Mens Sana In Corpore Sano
I was taught that "mens sana in corpore sano" translates from Latin as "a healthy mind in a healthy body".
Yet, my first association with "mens sana in corpore sano" is a third interpretation: My mind automatically completes it as "Mens sana in corpore sano.
For me, "mens sana in corpore sano" is a sharp call for personal perfection; finding limits and moving beyond them; developing a powerful and beautiful personal presence.

 The Avalon School - Athletics
"Mens sana in corpore sano" (A healthy mind in a healthy body) is almost a platitude of education and when something becomes a platitude it loses the energy of its underlying meaning.
Avalon recognizes that a body is not something a person has, but it is an integral part of who he or she is. Sports provide not only a means of physical fitness, but an entry into the uniquely human world of games where effort and teamwork and camaraderie are all blended.
Cuts are made, although rarely at the middle school level, since a false sense of achievement robs the student of a fair assessment of areas that need improvement and diminishes the excellence and hard work of those who truly deserve it.

 Mens sana in corpore sano - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mens sana in corpore sano is a famous Latin quotation from the Roman poet Juvenal (Satire X line 356).
The phrase is taken from a longer sentence, "Orandum est ut sit mens sana in corpore sano," which may be loosely translated as: "You should pray for a healthy mind in a healthy body," which is very different from the meaning above.

 Sport - Victorian and Edwardian Sporting Values
a greater degree of self-control was expected from Victorian men than from their forebears; although their spartan upbringing did not exclude the notion of 'manly tears' and men might still take the arm of a friend in the street, in general the control of temper, desire, and affection was recommended.
At precisely the moment when the new norms of maleness were coming into force, the incarnation of the opposite of 'manliness' was defined in the form of homosexuality, which for the first time was generally designated a crime in 1885.
This was mirrored in adult life, where men had the masculine atmosphere of the gentlemen's club to escape to whilst women had only the drawing room.

 Mens Sana 1871 - Siena
Una storia lunga più di 130 anni che iscrive la polisportiva “Mens Sana in Corpore Sano” nell’albo delle più antiche società sportive italiane.
Mentre la Robur divenne l’unica espressione del calcio senese, la Mens Sana, fedele alle sue tradizioni, si dedicò a ciclismo, pattinaggio ed hockey, sottolineando l’anima dilettantistica anche in un’intensa attività della sezione turistica.
Dal dopoguerra in poi, la Mens Sana ritorna a proporsi come modello di aggregazione sociale e comincia a manifestare sempre più l’esigenza di avere spazi propri per gestire autonomamente l’attività sociale.
