Nice to see a person doing Bartitsu who is actually a real martial artist, too many sadly who try to teach or promote the art have little real martial skill or knowledge, and are regulated to copying the pictures and working with complying and static opponents in exaggerated "old timey " postures with little genuine understanding.
Absolutely the most honest, clean and thoroughly minimal martial art I’ve encountered. I appreciate the fact that you place great emphasis on weight transfer, something that I taught for years to a select group of people of all shapes and sizes. Keep up the great work you’re doing in recording very informative and interesting videos. I’ll be sharing these with friends of mine who, like me, prefer the gentlemanly approach to stopping the ruffian! All the best, JC.
Tommy...Where you at a Seminar with Julien Masson(urban combatives) about a year ago? I think I recognise you...do you do Seminars?? Great insight...especially the comments about smaller peoples different requirements to hit hard.
A lot of people call thumb down shots ‘Slavic’ so you get Slavic hooks and jabs etc. Thumb down is very big in that region. One rationale is that there is a huge amount of amateur boxing in those regions, or was in soviet times. Thumb down adds range, which means it can be easier to accumulate points at distance when boxing.
The drop step !

"Learn to hit fucking hard".......I remember Geoff Thompson saying that

Very interesting techniques. You threw a hammer first and a hook that to me looked more or less like straight punches.
2:15 - Sticky hitting
5:55 - Hammerfist
8:05 - Corkscrew hook
9:35 - Conclusion
The corkscrew hook is the actual application of the "rising block" in club karate.
Greetings mate, from the colonies ( Canada )!

The punch is very similar to how punching is done in wing chun kung fu.
Good bare hand technically

Is that corkscrew hook Fedor Emilienko’s favored shot?
