cfr Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 Do most FMA systems address the clinch/ takedown? Im pretty certain they dont go in depth with them. But do they at least cover the basics for defending against?
delta1 Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 Most FMA's do a lot of locks and standup grappling. Some also do Fillipino grappling, which has a lot of takedowns and some groundwork. They obviously also learn to defend what they are trying to do to each other. Japanese occupation also brought JMA's, and many FMA's adopted karate, Judo, Jiu-jitsu, and other JMA's in part or whole. So it really depends on the system and the school as to what or how much variety, including grappling, you get. Freedom isn't free!
