One of my favorite styles of martial arts, and it had a great influence on Karate!
Great video James, and I remember watching that fight live! Revers frontal is a really simple kick which anyone can do (technically) but adding the setups can really make the difference between throwing it and scoring with it.
Castlebar, Ireland.
Exactly so! Ah, back in the days when we were allowed to fight in the same room .... (which will come again)
👍👍great teaching thank you master🙏
Hello from Toulouse(South of France)and thank you.chassé bas, fouetté médian, décalage+revers frontal👍(personally I finish with fouetté médian or figure with the other leg) 🥊🙂🥊
Hello to Toulouse! That's a useful extension to the combination - thanks, I'll try it 🥊
Greetings from Berlin, Germany. Good video and great teamwork!
Hi Stephan! Thanks :)
J'adore ;) bravo pour tes vidéos James.
Merci Vincent!
Thanks James, another Supr tip. Best Wishes from Cape Town
Cheers Mat!
Awesome video! I like that you discuss getting the opponent engaged in the situation before using the technique.

Thanks Dave ;)
Greetings from France !
Salut!
@@LondonSavate I must say I am training on a shape and cardio point of view for now with savate, before going to a more historical and self defence one. I really liked your cardio training -to the ring tips !
@@camillebarrere9105 Thanks Camille. I would be keen to hear further updates about your progress and I am glad you liked the fitness tips video (link here for anyone else reading ua-cam.com/video/78tcDpHunfs/v-deo.html)
I'm from greece and more specifically sparta, so combat is in my dna😂 Savate is the first martial art that I learnt and have been practicing for 3 years now, and because of it I have developed a very unique way of striking as savate itself is really unique style. I aim to master Savate and then move on to wrestling so I can become a more well rounded and scary fighter, savate will always be my roots tho. @London Savate, you are truly the representative of savte in yt, and your videos are great. I would love however if your videos included more sparring and the applications of the techniques in a sparring session-fight. I also would want to know your opinion on savate in mma.
Think my flexibility/mobility has improved enough to try using the revrs frontal more often, so I'll give this a try.
I train in Dallas, Texas.
Nice. I think revers fontal is a good kick to reach head height first when improving flexibility. Let me know how you get on!
👍
Excellent teaching, I wonder why this more easier kick with the inside sole move is forbidden.
Great question. I have my own theory that it is because the movement would be made with no preparation. The fouetté, chassé and revers latéral must all be preceded by a chamber (armé) for legal trajectory. The outside revers frontal also needs a preparation of the hips, but the inside revers would not. So I guess it is not in keeping with the dynamics of the style to allow a kick with no preparation. Just a theory.

Hello
överste-streamer.
I am an Italian fighter with a Russian coach :) great video, very useful, but since I am more used to kickboxing rules I need a clarification: apart from lowering the opponent's guard, the reverse kick can be used to score points? If I hit him in the face, is it a point? Thanks a lot in advance
Yes indeed. If the trajectory of the kick is good and it touches the head, the judges should note points. The goal of Assaut is to touch open targets with legal, well-controlled strikes.
@@LondonSavate thanks a lot for the exhaustive explanation!
@@cristianazanirato611 No problem. I hope your training is going well.
@@LondonSavate I would say yes, despite the covid-19 issue... The only issue is that I have to train by myself and cannot do sparring but I hope in May things will change and improve
@@cristianazanirato611 Sure thing. The same for us in UK. If you'd like to do some of my online lessons while you await May, look at link londonsavate.co.uk/onlineacademy/
Remember to say where you are based before leaving.
I filmed this in Essex, England (and the fight was in Castlebar Ireland)
1:05 Wait, but can't you just follow up with a chasse frontal from that position?
Yes, I reckon you could, with the rear leg most likely to help out. You may, however, still be faced with a retreating opponent, who could evade the chassé frontal as well (depending on the space now left behind them). You are still best, I reckon, to engage them first and, after all, the video is concerned with how to land the revers
Why are kicks limited? Like you mention in here that you can only throw an outside revers frontal and not an inside revers frontal. I would think savate competitions would be better if allowed to use all techniques in style. Just like how Taekwondo doesn't allow legs kicks, punches, elbows, or knees...which does a disservice to the style.
Let's say your suggestion were taken up by both sports - wouldn't they then tend towards becoming the same as each other? More generally, if all strikes were legal in all arts, we would lose the different styles and approaches, and lose the richness we gain from having them. Rules make styles; that's the reason I'd propose.
