ground fighting videos

Its said that "every fight ends on the ground",

I´d say that you should learn to fight on the ground to scape fast from that dangerous position, where you can be attacked by the friends of your opponent.

Se dice que "todas las peleas acaban en el suelo"

Tengo mis dudas.

En todo caso hay que aprender a defenderse también en el suelo sobre todo para escapar de una situación potencialmente peligrosa que puede ser que el atacante tenga colegas cerca.

Here you have a selection of videos to think about it.

Taekkyon - Korean martial art

2007-11-21T01:49:00.000+01:00

Taekkyeon is a traditional Korean martial art, probably stemming from Subak and Ssirum. It is uncertain when Subak was first practiced in Korea, but it may have existed many centuries ago. The first source mentioning Taekkyon is the book Manmulbo (also Jaemulbo), written around 1790 by Lee, Sung-Ji.[1] Taekkyeon is also frequently romanized informally as Taekkyon or Taekyon.

Taekkyon contains all kinds of techniques, including hand and leg techniques as well as joint locks, head butts and so on. However, today there are different styles which sometimes do not emphasize all techniques. In all styles, just like in past centuries, kicks are most dominant. Taekkyon probably teaches a great variety of kicks, especially low kicks (ddanjuk) but also jumps.

El Taekkyon (택견) es un arte marcial tradicional muy conocido en Corea. Incluye numerosas técnicas de pie y movimientos fluidos de los brazos con las manos abiertas. A diferencia de otras artes marciales, no se utilizan golpes bruscos de puño ni patada, sino que se hace más énfasis en las patadas bajas y los barridos para hacer perder el equilibrio al oponente y derribarlo.

Kosho-Ryu Kenpo _ flowing is the key

2007-11-21T00:22:00.001+01:00

This 3 videos show beautifull Kosho-Ryu Kenpo. Kosho-Ryu Kenpo was the name of the original martial art in Mitose family, etc. If you want to learn more search for Kenpo on google.

I post this videos couse I think this skills are a key fact for being effective in any situation. The famous "be water, my friend" is the esence of this art.

There are moves that seem to be extracted directly from some tai chi style.

I hope you like it.

Knife defense 1. The Difficulties.

2007-11-17T03:35:00.000+01:00

The first of several posts dedicated to this subject.

I´ve selected some videos that can help you valorating the way you practice knife defense.

First video is about how hard is to defend from a knife. Run away is the best way to defend against a knife.. well, if your wife is in danger you shouldnt run away! And it seems impossible to succeed 100% in our defense, but does that mean that we should never train it? I think that training the most effective strategies and moves, at least you are increasing the possibility to survive. And its fun for martial arts lovers.

Kung fu - Self defense - Block + hit + Chin Na sequence - Hung Kuen Lau Gar

Hitting the opponent before trying to apply any chin na technique is a good idea.

Judo Master SHIHAN KYUZO MIFUNE

2007-10-29T22:34:00.000+01:00

An old video about SHIHAN KYUZO MIFUNE.
"Mifune's influence on post-war Judo cannot be underestimated. His skill was perhaps the most elegant ever seen at the Kodokan. His dynamic and fluid Judo was a natural basis for the explosive development of sport Judo around the world. Indeed, Trevor Leggett, a frequent visitor to the Kodokan over many years, remarked that Judo was much "rougher" at the Kodokan prior to World War II, as opposed to afterward. This was, perhaps, the influence of Mifune." Bstkd.

"El maestro Kyuzo Mifune desarrolló el más exquisito Judo que se haya visto jamás hasta la fecha, dueño de una armonía excepcional, donde se conjugaban los fundamentos de la biomecánica del Judo, de la belleza, del sincronismo, de la elasticidad, de la potencia, y de la flexibilidad.

El maestro Mifune hacía fáciles las técnicas más difíciles del Gokyo no waza, su elegancia para desplazarse, su conocimiento profundo de las leyes mecánicas; su capacidad física asombrosa para la estatura de 1.64mt. y el peso de 46 kg. que tenía, dejaban más que admirados a sus espectadores."

Chin Na Videos

2007-10-28T01:19:00.001+02:00

A video with some chin na movements. From wikipedia: "Chin means to seize or trap, na means to lock or break, and while those actions are very often executed in that order (trap then lock), the two actions can also be performed distinctly in training and self defense. Which is to say, a trap isn't always followed by a lock or break, and a lock or break is not necessarily set up by a trap."
Un video con algunos movimientos de chin na. Las técnicas de chi na se encuentran en diferentes estilos de kung fu y son aquellas que buscan controlar y desarmar al oponente mediante torcimientos, roturas, dislocaciones... a las articulaciones. Chin significa sujetar, Na dislocar o torcer.
