What fighting style did Batman use in the latest Batman film from 2022 ?
Did he use the Keysi Fighting Method in that movie too ?
@@animallover7072 keysi was used only in the triology of Nolan and others like Jack Reacher (Tom Cruise)
Never seen this before, intense. And hats off to you Kevin for staying in there and drawing out the points. I kept thinking on your behalf "keep back"!
KAABER GOD ALMIGHTY--🙏😊
Sounds like a kenpo guy
I like the shielding part, the use of walls and the concept of every movement is an attack. It can be used to enrich other self defense approaches
I agree!!
Does Alan Baker have a YT channel?
@PaMuShin thanks.. I did and I've found his YT channel!
Similar to jkd
I think the most practical part is using short, rapid, violent elbows. I've been skeptical of Keysi for years, but an exchange Sifu Baker had on the latest Warrior Poet episode. It looked like he rang John's bell with 2 quick elbows in the scramble of a knife defense drill and helped me see the practicality. They are definitely very different than the swimming elbows in Muay Thai and could have some real utility in the transitional areas of a fight. Someone overcommitting while trying to get into a clinch, in a scramble of any kind while the opponent is trying to maintain contact and while being pinned against the wall just like they show here just to name a few.
The shielding aspect is extremely familiar to anyone who watches master wong. I see him drive forward and intercept with elbows all the time. Even training with scenarios
I knew I had seen it somewhere 😂 Very similar style, especially with the explosiveness
It also sems vary similar to defense lab sistem
Keysi Fighting Method is the origin where Defense Lab came from.
@@lboe9232guys... It's also the fighting system in the Dark Knight trilogy... The style Batman uses
It's awful it made a complete joke of Panotukan and JkD@@arkadiusnowakowski3664
11 minutes in and Kevin FINALLY says “dude chill out” in the nicest way lol
The style looks like it has merit but the showboating instructor removes an I trust I might have.
@SurmaSampo same. He didn't really answer most of Kevin's questions and he didn't show the techniques slowly.
@SurmaSampo same. He didn't really answer most of Kevin's questions and he didn't show the techniques slowly.
I loved that bit, he goes full speed all video vs kevin trying to do demo-speed... then does the classic "street fighter see red" positon on kevin - hands down, chest out menacing 😂
@@SurmaSampothey are all like this from my experience of KFM/Defence lab they think it makes them seem tough
I’ve seen several similar techniques in 52 Blocks. Mark MacYoung also included lessons like this in some of his books back in the 90s.
I like how KFM has a focus on the science of movement.
Constellation52 trained this system before it was famous. It's father form is 52.
It's also used by Batman in the Dark Knight trilogy and by Jack Reacher in the movies. Probably to cut from the usual arts and it's kinda visual.
Read mark macyoung when I was a teen, awesome stuff.
I was just thinking that
@@ronnieettienne6335 Marc is still great
I like the way Alan baker simplified the system to a more direct line of attack as opposed to constantly moving the arms around in a covering motion.
You can tell he has study the system and tweaked it to suit a more aggressive approach.
Let’s see more of Alan’s take on street combat using keysi system.
The Keysi method of violently taking the opponent space is similar to Bajiquan body checks.
This is great to learn.
no 😊
@@rollinOnCode no?
That's what I was thinking. Movement is your weapon.
@captainkirk7513 no no? no no stance?
indeed, I Karate and boxing we call it "stuffing" or "crowding"
The thing i dislike about reality based self defense is that the teachers/coach/practitioner almost always go full speed during the explanation part while the students is still in listening mode.
It feel a bit like a cheapshot to claim effectiveness in this type of situation where the student is not commited to attacking at all.
Not saying its not a good style or coach but i really prefer when a coach gives a student the chance to also get into fight mode.
I felt that a lot with this video especially. Like I get what he's saying about the goal being destruction, but is that your goal while teaching too? It's obvious in this case that Kevin is missing some points because "Ahh big man attacking me". He could definitely slow down like 50% and get his point across much more clearly
This bothered the hell out of me and I don’t see enough people talking about it.
This happens in all martial arts. And if the student is gonna fight back then that's not a martial class anymore, it's a sparring session. If you trust the teacher you pay attention to what he shows you. You can test it against other students and keep or dismiss what you want
@@brigade911 I agree with your point however i think you missread my comment,it about a student listening closely and not even i any fighting stance or mode to begin with .
Then the student becomes more occupied with self protection due to being overwelmed, the coach could slow down a bit and the increase speed and confidence in the student until the technique becomes familliar so it can be drilled effectivly.
I'm a boxing coach myself, and i find that showing your own skill full speed on a students reches them almost nothing aside from maybe inspiring themand showing what they can learn but you have to slow down the initial teaching until the technique is decently understood.
@@CoachKussenVuist of course teachers will show it slowly during the learning process. But they also got to demonstrate how it supposedly works in full speed. Whether it's truth or just an impression to get their students admiration and attention
Alot of comments saying, "This reminds me of..."
As a friend of mine likes to say: "Across oceans and continents, cultures and styles, the things that tend to work all look the same."
Perfect way to put it
Except in Africa lol
we all have a brain that can learn how to use two arms and legs, fighting is all the same its how you choose to use it is the differentiator. thats how the style are formed in general
This reminds me of Batman & Jack Reacher because this stuff only gets used in the movies. I kid, some of the principles/techniques are good to augment a base in a more practical style.
Thanks Kevin for being a true martial artist and bringing more light to even the lesser known arts. One of the things I like about this art is the use of elbows and hammerfists as opposed to punches, safer in a no self defense situation.
Which art is this?
Método keysi, es un tipo de lucha fundada por un español justo Domínguez creo
@@ismailibrahim1354
Keysi, it's not that unknown tbh.
One of the things my Kali instructor would always say is that he's less afraid of the guy that can advertise himself as a fighter either before or during a fight and much more afraid of the guy that makes it look like he doesnt know what he's doing. I think this form of martial art lends itself well to that second kind of fighter.
This is the fighting method Batman used in the movies! I knew it! Kev is becoming a super hero!
I am gonna learn all the moves from all superheroes!
Tom Cruise also learned KFM for his turn as Jack Reacher.
Yeah, I thought this fighting style looked familiar.
@@hell0philip right yeah
Batman is a ninja... this is bs...
You can immediately tell the difference between a fighter and a lethal weapon when you see this guy. Dude is terrifying
Interesting! I love your quest to learn more. Your enthusiasm for your guests and the skills they bring is admirable. You are one of the best Kevin. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for your support!!
Absolutely agree with this guy. Since I was a kid, using walls as a tool to create energy to hit or as a defense against multiple opponents was familiar to me. Then when i was about 23, working as a courier delivery guy, I was intercepted by a band of bad guys, about 7 guys, first I did was step close to the wall so when they started to try punching me, i moved one side or the other and they punched the wall and automatically game over for them. That helped me to reduce the number of opponents to about 3 who i was able to fight with. Obviously i was robbed but survived with no injuries at all. Then when i was to the police station to file this event they was looking at me thinking I lied about the fight. So even this is the first time I ser about this technique, i agree with the concept, it is very helpful for defense situations. Thumbs up…!!!
My wife's ex decided to try and pick a fight with me back when I was 24, so I met with him behind an apartment complex on a bike trail. Luckily the fence they had was a brick wall, and you bet I used that fucker when he had 2 of his buddies hiding nearby waiting for him to get overwhelmed. My friend who was filming at the time, was a blue belt in bjj at the time was able to subdue my fighter. But I took the 2 that came out to the wall. And both my friend and myself wound up using the wall. You just want to make sure you don't drop below waste level at any point. I can't tell you how weak their strikes were when there was a wall behind me. If you can shield and move, parry and strike or grapple for control, and focus on kicks. Since kickboxing is my specialty, I used a similar French style of shielding. We didn't finish the fight sadly because police arrived and I had to play it off like it was some sort of friendly sparring match outside a mma studio
@@zenralocfrench style of shielding?
probably the most interesting tricks and combat methods I've seen.
This guy is really very impressive. I really like the way he explains.
And his body and muscles are incredible
That’s one of the best videos on self defense I’ve watched. It works, I learned this concept from a JKD instructor who was teaching several classes in different arts . Looks like what I learned in Silat , and this was all covered in his Intense Defense class. Great video.
I didn't realize there was a name for this my dad taught me this style of blocking and fighting from his upbringing in the Bronx helped a lot more times than I'd like to admit. Shielding saves your head from so much damage not only from fists too saved me from someone that picked up a big stick and hit me with it
If it was the bronx could it have been jailhouse rock or 52 blocks?
@@astonprice-lockhart7261 learning a lot today did a quick google and yeah that's pretty much it. fighting like that will keep you alive both my father and me are testaments to that. Cool to know they have names my dad literally at the ages of like 8-15 just taught me, oh and another tip is to peep through the slits your arms make while shielding that way you never lose contact of who your fighting and if someone else is behind them. This is as real as it gets for striking in the real world outside of sport competition
Kali left the chat....
From Bushibu to Kasey, these forms of defense have so much in common, but are constantly evolving. So much has changed since I was a teenager.
Sifu Alan definitely took the humble route when going over his background. Dude has more credentials than The Beatles have hits.
Alan Baker, total legend, more than proficient in many systems, great stuff here
It's interesting how different disciplines reach similar conclusions in terms of blocking. I've never heard of this fighting style, but as soon as I saw it, I was reminded of "52 blocks," which was supposed to have originated in America's prisons. This is definitely worth learning!
And that's what martial arts actually are
I love this fighting style - Batman fighting style - they had to make it less violent and slow it down for camera. I think Tom Cruise used it in Reacher as well.
With the style like this that is so common to Silat there is no need to punch your opponent with your fists. There are so many other options available that a closed fist should not be used for a strike unless it is a back fist or open palm.
I like to think of it as a broken bone or torn ligament for every strike which equals about every second. Quicker timing would allow for 2-3 destructive moves in one second.
This is good material! So much better than most of what's out there. Keep up the good work boys!!!
YO! I remember KFM from Batman Begins/Nolan Trilogy. This appears incredibly real and practical. Love it.
this reminds me of the Hung Gar style i learned a LOT!
%90 of the techniques here were in forms we practiced in a couple ways. GREAT STUFF!
Vicious! No wonder this was used in Batman Begins, and in Tom Cruise's Reacher
Appreciate your representation of Keysi. I look forward to more content in the future.🙏🏻
We are gonna do multiple opponent fight
next!
@@KevinLeeVlog I want a piece of that👊🏻
“DID YOU JUST-“
“correct”
Sifu Alan Baker is a true warrior! One of the best around!
This is cool! The concept is really neat, I'd love to learn more about what training and pressure testing looks like. It sounds like they do lots of it, I'm just curious what the curriculum looks like. Very cool stuff!
From what I hear, they don't do pressure testing. There are a couple things that would be good to add to your toolbox, but I wouldn't base my entire training from it.
@GermanSausagesAreTheWurst you would be correct they don't, five years in and I never realistically sparred once
If you had spiked gauntlets like batman this would probably work really well.
Keysi was created in the mean streets of Spain, where bull attacks are a daily issue 😁
Thank you both. My personal favorite video of all that I have seen for this type of information. Again thank you both.
Looks like a great system for a guy the Keysi' guy size. Where at that size and weight you don't need full hip rotation to cause damage. However, for someone smaller like Kevin per se I don't him physicaly being able to do the same effective damage without proper rotation and extension on moves.
No wasted movement, Keep the guard up (frame), attack from defensive frame, come into the body which is slower than the head, foot stomp. Great Practical Teaching thank you Kevin Lee for bringing this Martial Artist's teachings to light.
I noticed here quite many similar principles that my Bajiquan teacher in Finland has told me. Those 3 stages of defence I have learned from my filipino martial arts teacher (in context of knife fighting). I have also found them in manuals of both historical european martial arts and old japanese martial arts. I ques good stuff works where ever you find it.
I haven't heard about this KEYSI-system ever before, but probably I will check it out more closely.
Check Christopher Nolan christian bale The batman trilogy. The art is what batman used
I see bagua bear form
The founders of the system were Inosanto Kali Instructors.
Tom Cruise trained in this style for his role in MI3 and he also used it in Jack Reacher. It's basically a slightly modified version of Filipino panatukan and Kali.
This fighting style is used in movies like Batman series and Jack Reacher. But it isn't so popular on Hollywood these days anymore. There is a variant of this style called Defense Lab creater by Andy Norman, the former partner of Justo Diéguez, used by Liam Neeson in several movies.
It's no better, source - I did it for 4 years.
What did you done for 4 years, Keysi or Defence Lab?@@BeepBoop2221
What do you mean no better?
I mean both are bad @stephenmurray8559
This video alone made me subscribe. I love the intensity and methodology of the shielding, striking and using all your body as a weapon. Now im just binging on all your videos!
I have seen Keysi receive many criticism lately, but I always found it very practical and interesting.
Yeah, I feel like you just gotta go meet the instructor to find out!
I think cuz the bread and butter techniques are really explosive and have a limited time duration, so it doesn’t lend itself to sparring. Like you shell up and charge in on their attack, but they manage to block it and reset space. What do you do, burst in again? Someone who can keep it really far range or close range defeats a lot of what KFM highlights. So I think it makes sense as a self defense system, but doesn’t dwell on prolonged sport-centric exchanges.
@@mengmao5033 for sure. I don't think it's designed for sports. The sparring part makes sense though, I wonder if they have it in their training.
In that scenario you pointed, it might make sense to combine Keysi with basic boxing skills so you can have the footwork to reset/reengage as necessary. But again, I think the techniques as designed to end a confrontation as fast as possible. That of course, not always being possible against a trained opponent.
I feel like this keysi method would combine great with boxing
I was with Alan, recently in September for the KFM Seminar. It was very nice experience
The seminar was great
Brilliant video Kevin, very interesting style of fighting, but very effective and makes alot of sense when you see how it's done by an expert.
"Remember, to win in a game of football, or life, you have to annihilate everything in your path... in a blind rage!"
BJ's Fit for Football
The connection with the ground is standard for power generation. I like the emphasis of learning connection with the wall and by extension your other surroundings.
I know in MMA grappling with a cage it can be a resource or a bane so to see it used for more striking application beyond wall running kicks is kind of cool.
You’d all recognise KFM from the Christopher Nolan Batman. It’s the style Bats uses.
I remember Nolan's behind the scenes for Batman Begins mentioned that Christian Bale's Batman fighting style was Keysi. It looked really cool and interesting onscreen. But since UA-cam began, I've looked up KFM and saw a lot of criticism on KFM. It was pretty depressing to see how easily a lot of early UA-cam content creators dismisses KFM.
It's encouraging that Kevin's looking into all these fighting styles and examining the physical fighting mechanics from its expert practitioners.
The founders themselves are jkd guys and ex military
@@jacobharris954 That makes sense. 👍🙏
Idk what the issue is. It’s just basic combatives stuff that you will find across many different systems. Gross motor movements vs specific techniques, aggression and forward movement etc.
It’s not going to get anyone to win an MMA championship but it’s solid stuff when you have limited time to train MOST PEOPLE to defend themselves.
The ideas of KFM are sound the problem is it became a watered down kravmaga. Like the crash guard is good. Protecting your knuckles is good(although punching tends to be most efficient way to fight). In that sense the style does what it set out to do a self defense martial art that protected your head and knuckles. I do disagree on how this guy is demonstrating the techniques but I'm not going to hold it against the keysi fighting method.
The criticism of the system is sound.
Best dashing attacks counters I’ve seen, this guy is a nightmare.
This style of fighting is Keysi Fighting Method.
The credit for the style is down to Justo Dieguez.
Too cool. I don't learn much in principle f martial arts anymore, but today I have learned something new.
Waiting for the "MMA is better comment" ...
MMA lis better ;)
How many of these moves are legal in MMA?
Boxing beats both.
@@claytonwhitacre1752looks like all of them.
This man is an MMA student.
Most martial arts are effective against untrained people. Most people don't know how to throw a punch. Keep your teeth together. As Mr. Parker said, "Hit first, hit hard, hit fast, hit last."
I wouldn't agree with absolutly everything he says but I think this is a very cool concept and I think I will try out aspects of it. The wallwork in some parts seems similar to MMA but then again his wal is ridgid which changes a lot of things.
I love how you look at different systems and showcase them Already tried to use some modified Savate in my kickbox sparring to great effect. Thanks for all the input!
It was the martial art used in Batman begins. And John reached movies.
Keysi gets a bad rep because The Dark Knight Trilogy choreography left more to be desired. But, I've been incorporating stances of KFM in my CQC techniques for years now and I absolutely love it.
This method is so DAMN applicable and has impressive results. I want to learn it.
we all know fights never go as planned and they are messy
We call this system, "The Charging Bull"
Perfect, because it's from Spain 🇪🇦🐂
Impressive techniques, would have been nice to see them being demonstrated a little less aggressively though. If I walked into his school and saw him showing them off like this to his students, I'd probably walk out. Like we get it, these techniques hurt, I don't need you to hurt me or somebody else for me to see that.
It really is a terrible way to teach or demonstrate. And not saying it is or isn't the case here, but typically is done by instructors who think that going full pace on a slow moving uke gives them credibility of "mastery"
this guy is amazing. i need to see all these moves in slo-mo
There are many vids out there that say Keysi doesn;t work. This dud shows that Keysi delivered with speed and agility and most definitely DOES work! Would you want to face off with this guy? Excellent demo and thx for posting
The Optimal Foraging Theory applied to fighting
This technique is very powerful. Im happy to have seen it. I feel like I could make use of even just this short overview. Those moves are crushing. So much power from such small movements so its very fast to. It lacks range but makes up for it with shielding and the shielding stance is also the attack stance which would make the user of this technique less readable. Especially to someone whose more farmiliar with longer range striking and more open techniques which is definitely most people. Launching off the walls could make headbutting so much more powerful it actually makes being back into the wall have its own special way of being advantageous because of being able to leverage the spine and core muscles so much more.
Even the teaching commentary speaks of timing in connection to range and reaction ....very similar, as well as destroyong the attack
Guy needs to chill, imagine him doing this to Tyson ‘ethcuse me, can you relax?’
It looks like a great match for kickboxing knee and elbows once youre in close. It also looks like a good lead to get into grappling.
There's something really serene about that pipe in the background.
This fighting style has had some interesting history. It first was brought to light in Batman Begins and after a few movies later the co founder separated from KFM to create Defence Lab which brought up the first Jack Reacher
Lmao is this true?
so you are saying jack reacher is batman?
So it got brought to light because it only works in comics 😂?
Lol i think the teacher didnt have to be quite so violent 😂😂
The repition of "destroy" kind of tells you everything about this mans style
Step 1: Be bigger than the other guy
Size is completely irrelevant. I have empirical evidence of that.
You have heard the saying the bigger they are the harder they fall
I thought that til I saw all those street brawl vids where skinny bros beat up taller muscle machines
As every self defense seller, he is super invested in looking super badass and dense...
KFM seems to have changed a lot since it became popular in the early 2000's because of Batman, that wall framing thingie looks useful, MMA guys should probably explore that aspect of the system more.
I think more technical mma fighters will test the bounciness of the cage wall to calibrate their defense, in the same way that boxers negotiate how tensioned the ropes are. That said, a even a taut fence is gonna offer way less energy reflection vs a solid wall
Why is Kevin going like 20% and this guy just coming at him at 95% - 100%??? This didn’t bother anyone else?
Maybe that is that guy’s 20%?
A better instructor is when the instructor doesn't use force until the student has an established base
This is practical self defense for strikers, amd good for any age, no fancy moves but every defense is an attack moves, very dangerous self defense but very practical as well.
I didn't know Batman used keysi Fighting Method in his movies. So Kevin Lee is demonstrating how to do it here. Awsome
Awesome!
he's a good representant of keysi
I agree that the shielding is a great aspect to add to one’s training regardless of “style”. Also love how the elbows can naturally flow off of it. Not sold on the punches- seem to lack power, seem slow and mechanical. Besides if I’m in trapping range elbows seem to make more sense.
Amazing techniques on display. Thank you for the demonstration.
JMO: If you want something quick and effective for the street, this might not be bad. If you don’t want to spend years learning a specific discipline, this is your style. It’s very basic, but cool. But, you WILL have trouble if you come up against someone with real martial arts training. I can already see certain styles and techniques I would use against this. It’s just my opinion, no need for all the “UA-cam masters” to reply 😂.
Hello, UA-cam Master here. Seriously though, I agree with your comments.
@@thealleycat 😆😆😆 Thank you.
I mean any technique you can find flaws, the question is are you fast enough to break through before their technique tags you. Good or bad is more dependent on the fighter and how you use it. Training, speed, and power go a long way especially with a burst attack shown here.
Any good martial artist or teacher will tell you no one system will be superior and you always should be willing to evolve and take in all philosophies. What doesn't work for you throw it out, but that doesn't mean it won't work for another. Just my thought. Neither agree nor disagree with you on this one.
How to get your ass whooped and completely obliterated. Just go to a gym and learn how to actually fight. Take your pick of MMA, Muay Thai, Jiujitsu, wrestling, etc. just learn how to actually fight.
Bro people better be paying up 😆nice vid!
I really like that approach that seems it can be learned rapidly and intuitively.
Very cool. Using a shield as a weapon, with explosive intent.
This was insane protecting and attacking violently at same time
butthurt mma people in 1, 2, 3.....
Agreed lol
Lol, it's already happening. Much respect to MMA by the way.
the amount of triggered MMA purists makes me believe that pressure points ARE in fact real... @@raccoonmyroom6861
Great video, old mate was absolutely amazingly
I understand it’s a quick intro and shows effective aspects, but I can’t seen to imagine any weaknesses, looks very effective
Ayo why does he need to do every technique at 10? We don’t need to see peojected machismo, just show the technique.
When it’s a combat style you train for real life situations how you train is how you fight in the street . Believe it or not he’s holding back …a lot I can’t tell. If and when you go to a real combat school this is the norm . He not hurting kev but the speed and intensity is what’s giving the shock value to kev . This is not mma this is real life street intensity
@@MARTIALnoarthe could have hyperextended Kevin’s elbow when Kevin put his hand on his chest, if Kevin had just rotated his arm with crook of elbow facing down right before that arm clearing slam came down
@@MARTIALnoartYou sound like you don't teach or train. From what I know about Keysi it is an untested system, and spasing out in your demonstrations/training is a good way to hide your mistakes. If this guy has other experience, he can obviously make it work to some extent, but to judge a system we have to see how they train.
In the Wing Chun Dao system I teach we have similar concepts derived from in depth chi sao training. Nice vid
I like the wall lean, when he threw that kick he can't lose HIS balance but he can drop you it's great !
Punching can be dangerous but elbows and toros/solar plexus blows are a plus for shorter guys. Throwing jabs and hooks to the face will
hurt your hand too easily and if that happens the fight is over for you. These techniques are really impressive.
This is the martial arts Nolan's Batman uses btw. Unfortunately, I dont think the movie choreography did it justice because this guy makes it look so potent.
Keysi is a spaniard martial art
He is phenomenal!
The navigation is like Savate.
Thank you for bringing these moves out of your shielding opponent' with your good questions and spirit
Very interesting, and very intelligent way of self defence..you use the environment around you to your own benefit...
Your reactions to those demonstrations were priceless and got me laughing classic
The shielding is exactly the same thing ive learn in wing chun, silat, muay boran all have these Shields forms too, his knowledge of how to figth with ur back on a wall is insane, learned alot today 😂
