Martial Arts In Action!!

[DeLamar.J]

I have decided to make a thread to SHOW the beauty of TKD, Ju jitsu, and other arts in action. There are alot of threads out there pitting one MA vs another, and alot of critisizing about certain arts. So I will start off with one of the most beautiful martial arts in the world IMO, TKD. Alot of people might have already seen this, but Im sure alot have not. So here it is, this is what you can do if you train hard at TKD!!

The link for the TKD stuff didn't work for me, I had to go to the homepage and find the link to the video, but its in there.


Neat stuff. Very flashy, much of it not practical, but, having said that, the combative kicking that those folks do would be phenomenal.

The Jujutsu stuff was awesome!

thanks DeLamar!

[Scout_379]

very VERY cool, i used to be prejudiced against TKD becuase of their lack of focus on punching and stances, but I really cannot deny how damn cool those kicks are!

Ok, here are some more vids to down load, they are from the other MA site I post at. These are real fighters in full contact matches, the techniques are very realistic, watch and learn. These are some of my most favorite fighters.

Scroll to the bottom and download the high quallity vid, it is very worth it if you like realistic stand up fighting. This is a must see for standup fighters!!

And here is the man who started the BJJ craze, he is great. Thank him for BJJ going mainstream.
http://www.sherdog.com/videos/videos.asp?v_id=37

And I belive this is his cousin, Rickson gracie. Said to be the best grappler in the world by many.
http://www.sherdog.com/videos/videos.asp?v_id=29


Remember, scroll to the bottom and get the high quallity, and save it to dvd or something and put it in your files, these guys are real no bullcrap fighters!

[DeLamar.J]

Notice in the ernesto hoost vid he uses high kicks very effectively, because he knows how to apply them properly. His timing and distance are perfect. He has probly done some TKD in his day to refine his kicking abillity wouldnt you say?

[Enson]

i thought the tkd and the capoeria demos were out of this world. blew my mind to see those arts in their full glory. mine will only help me save my life... that sucks!;) hee hee! but really. that was great!

I like the Kenpo vids. Very cool stuff. Just a quick question though, how do you think Kenpo and Wing Chun would mix together. They remind me of each other a little.

[DeLamar.J]

Here is a clip of a guy who is very good at point fighting, his compitition sucks horribly, but he manages to land some cool kicks because of it.
http://www.multilevelmoves.com/MLMv7/html/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=93

Just remember that this guy would get creamed in a real fight against a good opponent, there is a difference between point fighting and real fighting. One low roundhouse would throw off his entire game, and he cant punch for crap, but still fun to watch.

[DeLamar.J]

Here are some vids of THE MAN. Wing Chun vans will like this.

http://www.alpinaconsulting.com/bruce/

Be sure to check out the Bruce Lee sparring, its bruce against some Kenpo fighter at one of Ed Parkers seminars.

[Raewyn]

Looks like he might have been a gymnist!!!!!! Quite pretty to watch, wicked flexibility!

Wing Chun is good but it concentrates too much on hands I think. It depends what you mean by 'mix together'. If you mean would a Wing Chun guy benefit from Kenpo training or vice versa then definitely. The Kenpo guy would learn to extend his trapping abilities amongst other things, and the Wing Chun guy would learn better stances (the classic Wing Chun pose is a little too front on to my eyes...) and to use his legs more in conjunction with the hands.

If you mean what would happen if they fought, the same points apply as has cropped up in the other threads - who knows? My guess would be the Wing Chun guy would take a snap kick to the groin before too long...

Interesting. I Am interested in both styles. Never formally trained in either but would love to. I have sparred with both Wing Chun and Kenpo fighters and the Kenpo fighters were way tougher, but I know that varies from school to school. Plus, my martial arts training has never left ohio.

[DeLamar.J]

As soon as I get a new camcorder with a usb Im going to put some vids up of me and my buddies training. That will be fun to get everyones opinion.

Ha ha ha ** LINK REMOVED DUE TO PROFANITY**

I love watching the ladies go at it.

[Scout_379]

strong language, mild violence - viewer discretion is advised

[Mark Weiser]

Being a Parent of Teen agers I am more upset with everyone standing around and encouraging the fight.

[Bester]

Viewer discretion? Hell, Intellegence Discretion.

Just another link to morons proving why the gene pool needs some chlorine in it.
Nothing to do with martial arts.
Moron arts maybe, but not martial.

Hey, can someone post some BumFights, or the Cops outtakes?
Now that is some serious martial arts in there.

Wait...let me have a couple more cans of losers-koolaid.
Maybe it will be more 'martial' then.
Nope.

Still stupid people being stupid.

Yea, its safe to say that they are not martial artists lol. I though it was pretty funny though so I posted it. Thats the kind of stuff I normally see livivng next to a highschool in the bad part of town. But hey, at least they were not trained, then they would have really hurt each other instead of having a slap fest, I seen a few good chances for a rear choke hold, good thing she didnt know how to do that ofr it could have been serious. I like to watch two people go at who dont really know what they are doing, its very amusing to me :lol: because normally no one really gets hurt, just a couple scratches and bruises, then all is well.
I post some more common street fighting stuff if I run across it.

[Bigodinho]

Looks like he might have been a gymnist!!!!!! Quite pretty to watch, wicked flexibility!I'm assuming you mean the capoeira video. If you are, you're right, those guys were gymnasts, not capoeiristas. Except for maybe the guy in the black pants, he actual threw a couple of kicks. The other two, nope. It's guys like them who give capoeira a bad name. That's why people believe it is not effective, because of guys like them. Watch this one:

www.capoeiratexas.com/thestreetroda3.wmv (http://www.capoeiratexas.com/thestreetroda3.wmv)

The guy with the dreads (Instructor Esquilo) is my instructor, the darker guy (Instructor Borracha) is his youger brother.

Steven Segal doing Aikido!
Very cool vid, alot of people bad mouth him but I still like him. Check it out.

[DeLamar.J]

Here is a article about Aikido to go with the vid




What is Aikido?
Introduction
Aikido is a Japanese martial art developed in the early 20th century by a Japanese martial arts expert: Morihei Ueshiba (often referred to as O Sensei or 'Great Teacher'). Its techniques originated in the throws and joint locks of jujitsu, where an attacker's strength and momentum are used against himself, and from sword techniques (kenjutsu). Emphasis is placed on absorbing and redirecting an attack rather than blocking or parrying. Aikido methods are often used in women's self defence classes since they do not rely on strength. Unlike many other martial arts, the aim of Aikido is to subdue rather than to maim or kill an opponent.

Aikido is a way of defence. Although it may seem contradictory with the concept of a martial art, the underlying philosophy behind Aikido is one of peace and harmony. ('Aikido' may be translated as 'The Way of Harmony with the universe or spirit)'. It teaches the importance of achieving mental calm and control of one's own body in order to master an opponent's attack without causing them unnecessary harm.

Many different styles of Aikido have evolved from O Sensei's original teachings. Only one, Tomiki Aikido, involves any form of competition. Aikido training is of a co-operative nature rather than antagonistic, with performer (nage) and the reciever (uke) working in partnership.

The art of receiving a technique is termed ukemi. Where possible, Aikido throws are absorbed by rolling rather than mat slapping breakfalls. Ukemi are an important part of training since they permit uke to safely absorb the application of a technique and also condition the body. Good ukemi requires flexibility, fitness and awareness.

Very cool movies, love to see more of them! I always learn a lot from watching martial artists do their magic and am amazed with the flexibility of some of those guys. The one thing I don't understand is the entire concept of point-fighting but that's another thing, there seems to be no thought to what happens after the point-scoring technique, for many it would be the end of the discussion.. (anyways I'm sure that topic has been talked to death already).

[DeLamar.J]

The fight stops when the fight really starts, after the first hit.
Did anyone see the Segal vid? Aikido is so cool. My master has rank in Aikido but I never seen him do it.

[Flatlander]

OK Delamar, two can play this game. How about some Wushu? (http://www.beijingwushuteam.com/products/2001/VCD6trailerb.mpg) This clip rocks!
