Middle eastern martial arts.


Recommended Posts

I was wondering about how many martial arts are made in places like Indea or Iraq etc. etc. I saw a program on fit tv. called, "Deadly arts" this women went to India and studied this martial art thier. They also said that this art may be the oldest of them all and the place where mostly all martial art originated :o I forgot the name of the art she was doing there mostly because its alot to spell. can anyone help me

Kalariprayat (sp?) is one of the oldest MA in Inda. But from what I understand almost all of the martial aspect of it got dilluted to near nothing and it is practiced more for traditions and health/spiritual benefits.

There is also Silat, but that I know very little of.

There are probably others.

A friend's roomate of mine (2 actually) went to india to train in some temple, hopefully I will know more once they come back.

Isn't Krav Maga a middle eastern martial art?
