So Cool! Sherlock's Martial Art to Gentlemen. I loved It.
Indeed, it was also developed by suffragettes in the early 20th century to help that cause.
In these disturbing times, the spirit of Bartitsu is paticularly inspiring
Created in a turbulent time as well.

Ooo, gotta say one thing. Yes, Sherlock does use Bartitsu, but RDJ's Sherlock in that clip was using wing chun. Other than that, great video.
Absolutely, in this section absolutely and actually to a point in keeping with his area of understanding and London at the time. However later and for much of the film, Bartitsu was the main focus with adjustment of course but as adjustment someone underpins the system it fits, American Bartitsu instructor, Tony Wolfe was a choreographer for it.
Also John Steed in The Avengers uses it-and it was used in Kingsman.
Well RDJ is a wing chung practictisoner ,but the other problem in the movie was that ,judo , jiu jitsu, or Bjj are wortless in a multiple attackers scenario , they had to use a stand up stricking art, no insult intented to the students of grappling arts ,

Martial Arts.
Check out Canne de Combat. it's popular in France and the street style Canne Defense looks quite a bit like this.
Absolutely, Canne de Combat was actually later incorporated in Bartitsu after Barton-Wright saw it's need.
Being of, shall we say, larger build, and having to walk with a stick, I find Bartitsu somewhat of a useful Martial Art to know, I have a ready defense tool in my hand, and it is not illegal to carry.
.
Definitely a great starting point. Any systems that allow it.
I'll be honest, I didn't know this was a real art...
I tried to learn the cane arts, using a cubed yard stick; broke the stupid thing after a few swings...
Suffice it to say, looks like I may have a new hobby to study up...
Due to the bastardisation of the name to Baritsu by Arthur Conan Doyle many didn't realise. However the original art was created and had a main dojo in Soho, London with many instructors sent out to help adaption.
There are good instructors and bad all over, but remember this is not simply a stick art so looking for the adaptive instructors are likely your best bet.
When studying Holmes I was lead to believe baritsu was fictional invented by Doyle, just curious 🤔
No in fact he and E. W. Barton-Wright both worked at Pearson magazine together and it was there where when Doyle was forced due to demand to bring Holmes back he got the idea to take one letter out of Bartitsu, call it Baritsu and call it a day.
@@EdudivexoThat’s interesting! I thought it was just a misspelling on Doyle’s part.
Understandable but Doyle actually says it is a Japanese wrestling system to basically try and have it as a Holmes only style but it all came from his awareness of Bartitsu which at the time had a training centre in Soho.
