Difference between Martial and Combative arts -video


Recommended Posts

i thought that the word martial ment something to do with war so wouldnt they all be designed for combat?

thats true but many of them are useless now because they were used in a different context than now

Aikido have names for techniques like "heaven and earth."which represents the creation of the universe along with a philosophical meaning.


Muay Thai have names for techniques like "closing the lamp", which means "punch him in the eye."

That was the most ridiculous display I have ever seen outside a comedy club!

When fear is removed, the arrogance of uncertainty is dispelled and it is therefore no longer necessary to prove yourself in any form of combat. By learning how to fight, you learn how not to fight.

hmmmmm....I must admit that the excessive screaming expends alot of energy, but I think I would at least be taken aback by someone doing that kind of stuff. I also have to agree that there was some regular motion, like a kata(?), as was demonstrated in the middle-ish of the video (two guys doing same attacks). As to combat effectiveness, I would think that they could beat the average person, who has little or no martial training, but against a veteran fighter who isn't intimidated easily....I dunno. I beat they have good lung capacity though.

I must admit that there was in fact, some method to the madness but, wow! I watched it again just to get a good laugh!

That looked more like a comedy act off mad tv than a martial arts demo. Their attacks were very wasteful for the energy side of things, and the keep attacking the same several spots repeatedly over and over. They look rediculus.

looks like somebody just stopped at the rehab clinic and dropped three pounds of crack and a bunch of sticks and said "here ya go...go nuts!"
