That's a tough question with a lot of possible answers. I cant really speak for what's around you so I'd simply advise you take the time and go over your options available near you. Only you can find out which are truly good or not. Simple advice would be find schools that practice proper pressure testing and sparring. The environment itself and the community in that school is the other big piece of the puzzle. I wish you luck.

@@Dr-Grayson thank you for answering

Savate is definitely very strict in its technical training. It's one of the things that I really loved about it when I started learning it. I'm a stickler for details so it suited me well having strict form I needed to stick to. Very much appreciate your comments and hope you can continue to train safe and well over in Ukraine.

@@Dr-Grayson, thank you sir for supporting. I’ll try to do it further by learning Your materials, making videos and self-analysis after each training session.

Wow thank you so much. These kinds of comments are the absolute best. So happy to assist along your training journey. This made my day 🙏

Savate Defense is a very interesting system one I wish I had a bit more experience with myself. Thankfully certain strategies will carry over angles and footwork are fairly universal. Thanks for watching and the kind words. 🙏

@@Dr-Grayson you’re welcome!

Thanks so much. It's one I was particularly happy with. Dont worry I got lots more stuff like this upcoming. 👺👍

Cheers, thanks for stopping by!

Yeah you're mileage is gonna vary based on rule set, BFS rules they're definitely gonna wave the finger at you.

@@Dr-Grayson "ohhh, we couldn't help but notice your lateral oh0fEir was inside instead of outside... that's illegal, we're telling" 😎 next they'll be telling me I'm not allowed to pull guard 😤

So yes I know exactly the kind of techniques you're talking about in regards to the various gunting's of the Filipino Art along with the kick catches and elbow destructions. As far as I'm aware in MMA it's completely legal, the only thing barred there is small joint manipulation or grabbing the collar bone, which most destructions don't fall under. Essentially you can't grab fingers or toes but other than that you can do a lot of joint damage. In terms of flat out Savate anything involving grabbing legs or catching kicks while destructing would be illegal. There's also the fact that between the footwear and the shin pads that are part of standard uniform help prevent a lot of those injuries. More likely to see a forearm broken from a fouette or a leg hyperextension off a kick, given the additional safety gear it would be challenging to make them very effective. In MMA though it's totally legal I just don't think it's a high enough success rate to be consider worth doing, that and most competitors don't want to break bones in a fight. Just can't grab small digits and the like in MMA.

@@Dr-Grayson thanks so much for the detailed clarification I super appreciate it. I love the channel super informative.

I would say there isn't a ton of correlation between fencing and Savate. Fencing is very linear while the focus in BFS is generally on lateral movement and angles. Savate is based heavily in its outside and inside steps, which are kinds of lateral footwork. While the formal names for some of Savate's foundational offensive/defensive footwork are Decalage and Debordement. If you want a great indepth look on those two steps I would highly suggest checking out ua-cam.com/video/elC34_a82MA/v-deo.html this video by Prof James Southwood, he has others besides that go into great detail.

You're very welcome! All this and more still to come. The support is greatly appreciated

There are a lot of shared principles between the arts. Which is part of what can make their application so versatile. Certainly not the only answers to this issue, I'll definitely be sharing more in the future.

Haha, oh I'm so sorry. Sounds like you had some good ideas all on your own. Congrats on your win in any case.

Thanks so much!

Thanks! Happy to be back.

Some of it comes down to timing. One good way to to time the sweep off a step in. Such as kicking out the front leg when they step in to Jab. Another is doubling up the sweep, for instance after using the lead leg sweep you shift to the rear to take the leg completely out from under them. It's mostly going to come down to timing if you want them to hit the mat. Otherwise it's about breaking the balance and using the sweep to see up additional strikes. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

More to come and very soon. These things happen, ready to get back to it though.

That's very interesting. Does this include the inward strike with the heel you see folks like Yuki Yoza using? It's a fun variation of a similar kick, also very effective and can be landed at unusual ranges. Seen it mostly used by Kyokushin practitioners. One I've experimented with as well, it's had good success.

@@Dr-Grayson yes sir it does. I'm posting the link in a new comment

Thanks! Love hearing about the connections and similarities between arts. It's fascinating.

The beauty of Muay Thai is that you can add these skills to your game and they work great. I've trained these two arts together for a long time, it makes for an awesome combination. Thanks for the kind words, cheers.

@@Dr-Grayson absolutely 🙏🙏

Thank you kindly! That's the beauty of a lot of the drills I share. I hope and encourage people to implement them in different styles. Hope it helps.

Thanks so much, you dug out a seriously old video. Stick around and check our the new stuff, cheers.

Keep em frustrated, glad to hear they've already served you well.

The Frontal Revers is inside to out. You see the outside to inside Variation but that is not the primary version. The standard Frontal Revers is inside to outside. They both exist in the style though.

These drills always come after learning the basic techniques not before. Especially with a partner it's about sharing the balance so you can assist your partner and they can freely work proper technique and extension. Hope that clarifies things.

Thanks. Appreciate the fun fact, certainly a style well outside my experience so it's cool to hear about the parallels. Thanks for sharing, thanks for watching.

You're very welcome! Gonna do a couple more related to Blue before we progress further through the ranks.

@@Dr-Grayson Hello Doc, I like your channel and I hope it will grow, since there seems to be a renewed interest in savate. Your videos accompanied my first season of savate well. It's the summer break and I have made a program for returning to classes in September which consists of 3 sessions per week of strength work in full body workout and the other days shadow boxing and cardio. Could you make shadow boxing videos? It would be great to be able to follow you for a session of 20 - 30 minutes for example.

Absolutely and one that if not consistently trained can chew up energy by striking out of inefficient stances. Your stance needs to shift to suit your strikes, simple stuff but as you said a massively important concept. Cheer!
