I have a machete. I now have new respect for it. I always knew the Haitian ppl were resilient but seeing how the traditions continue makes me respect them even more than I already did. This is a piece of living history.
He has a beautiful family. I hope he's getting paid well to instruct especially the foreign students. Haitians have been treated badly and have had their government overthrown by US to install a horrendous dictator that robbed that country, France forced them to pay back the cost of their own invasion. I don't know if any country has been screwed as badly as Haiti has, but these people have strength in them. They will rise again an advanced and honorable nation. And look at that beautiful family. Bless them, and all the working classes of the world.
The alcohol is symbolic and ritualistic. It's clearly ceremonial when he drinks before teaching. If you notice, after he defeats the foreign student he takes a sip and hands him the bottle. The foreigner pours out a splash and then also takes a sip. Ceremonial. That's is old African spiritual practices right there. the drinking and pouring of libation is very linked to cultural and spiritual practices.
Finally someone who gets it! Agreed, all of this is ritualistic and culturally significant, the roots of this martial art are based in Calinda or Kalenda (which itself has origins in Africa) and then reformed during the Haitian Revolution when it came in contact with European style fencing.
but how did that foreigner loose? he could have easily sliced open the mans back when he was facing the wrong way. or are machetes not sharp enough that whoever strikes first loses.
@@doug70101 Haitians are mixed. Yes they do have a huge concentration of Congolese and Benin descendants like many others in the Caribbean and South America who got the most slaves from the slave trade. Haitians also have polish descendants as well. You’ve got dark skins and light skins

Something we all share as humans across the world is the sword. A father teaches his sons this, because wether we like it or not, the sword is human, and humanity lives and dies by the sword.
Reading through the comments, I see a lot of references toward being a town drunk with a machete. In most cultures, consuming alcohol before, during, and after a battle was/is common practice. Unlike the western civilization who sees alcohol as a party starter, other civilizations use alcohol as a helping spirit.
AllAmericanGuy01 What other cultures? it is important be more specific to avoid the trap of lumping all other cultures together. Alcahol is used as a party starter in many places as well as war. They use it for war too in the west, from ww2 even today western militaries give a lot of alcahol rations.

Probably the same "spirit" he talked about lit the candle. I'm guessing that the tree near him is a Ficus religiosa, wich is (was?) famous in India for being home for elementals. He probably makes offerings by that tree, like when he spills some booze on the ground. Either that or his thumb is really hot.

As in, he doesn't have to perform his stances because everyone learned enough about this combat-style knows he is in total control.
He was projecting all of this attacks, he left his back open and no one took advantage (IE they were just dancing). In the last bit of the video the "Master" struck his student in the face while "Sparring", that's a big no no. You don't have to be a master in Martial arts to know this "Master" is just some drunk dude with too much time on his hands.
***** I've taken martial art classes. But still Leave Bleach out of this, it was such a good anime. Thing is I've never seen my master make a mistake while doing actual sparring (Not what was in this video). Sorry, just from any perspective, that old dude made too many mistakes in just that one video for me to consider him an elite of anything.
As a dominican, I’m expected to have bad blood towards the Haitians from both Haitians and Dominicans, but I have nothing but respect and love for their culture, I wish for peace and prosperity to our brothers, L’union fait la force! 🇩🇴❤🇭🇹
that is a cool person i say.. normal and old but wise. And if many people didnt noticed he was trying to make his students follow his motions . Martial art doesnt need to be chinese or japanese to be perfect
@@vetrosinic5677 dude we are not talking about those martial arts. We are talking kenjutsu, iaijutsu, battojutsu and all other weapon based martial arts. Hands are cool and all but if someone in front of you is holding a weapon you are dead or lucky to escape.
Well, the young have a fond and tangible memory of the Professor, the 'mark' on his cheek, a 'mark' not out of malice, but from sparring with the GREAT Professor Avril, the protector of the Revolutionary art of Machete Combat, that which freed a People. I totally full joyed this, much thanks.
The Rhum he's drinking is called Rhum barbancourt, it's the most reputable Rhum in Haiti. It's exported throughout the Caribbean and also the states. It's often used to celebrate and also ceremonial purposes, a lot of people who practice voodoo use it to invoke lwa (spirits). When papa machete pour before drinking and passing it to his guests it's a sign of respect and fraternity. Great video Btw
I train in and have taught filipino martial arts and I admit this is impressive. Machete fencing and FMA are derived from the Spanish or French invasion and controlled over the territories. much respect to this guy
Pete Zauw I have only a little experience with karate and kung fu. I only got to purple belt then had to stop. But what I want to know is how exactly is what this guy is doing wrong when you just said you haven't trained in this. I'm not trying to be be disrespectful, I'm just genuinely curious.
Pete Zauw And yes I know that I don't have much of a right to speak about it since I haven't learned it, but I'm just saying, how exactly do you know it's wrong?
Mia they honestly don't know the value of what they wear .... therefore he doesn't even know what he is wearing .... I'm Haitian and I'm betting my ass off that other people make fun of that poor man
PTBM the camera crew mightve gifted some clothing for them. thats what came in to my mind when i saw it. im not saying he cant buy those shoes by himself, it only came into my mind. btw are you happy being an haitian? hows the wheater like there?
Looks his style is based mostly on binding and winding, controlling your opponent's blade. Very reminiscent of Roland Warcheza's teachings on Sword and Buckler.
@@denisemilfort4581 mostly yes, but there is a few influences, example the off hand on lower back, not unique to but most likely euro fencing influence.
Rhum barbancourt. He use that for everything. Drinking, praying, ceremonial stuff, holding it while practicing, cleaning wounds, etc...he must love this brand a lot.
THIS IS SO PURE!!!! PRAISE HAITI FOR ALL TIME. MY DEEPEST AND HUMBLED RESPECTS TO PAPA MACHETE!!!!!!!!!!! MY GOODNESS. GUESS IM VISITING HAITI FOR THE FIRST TIME. I MUST LEARN THIS ART I MUST!!!
You should have more respect than that. It was a cute joke that got u some likes, but it's not funny. This elders life and toil isn't something to joke about so flippantly. If u were a martial artist you'd know what he's doing. I play with the blade. I can see what he's doing and he's doing some deep shit! If u are a martial artist...shame on you. Find something else to throw jokes at. This man's skills aren't for joking. He raised 11 children and put them all through school in Haiti and you have the nerve to call him the town drunk? You've never worked a hard day in your life if you can fix your mouth to call a farmer lazy.
Thanks bruh, I put myself through college via scholarships and became the 1st black kid to graduate with a degree in CS from my university... then I started my own business and can afford to work from home... I know I'm not lazy. who the fuck are you again?
You're joking right? Because I didn't see any real sparring taking place throughout the entire video. They were doing 2 things, dancing, and projecting their attacks. Also in the last bit of the video the "Master" screwed up and struck his student in the face, which was his fault. Again just to be clear, I didn't see anything in this video that would lead me to think this guy is a master fencer of any kind.
I bet that's the exact same thing Napoleons' pomp ass army said in 1802 when they where sent to combat the Haitian Revolution: "I don't see any real sparring taking place...." What you call "dancing and projecting" in this video is what defeated Napoleons Grand Armée, probably the greatest combat force ever assembled.
Thousands of Napoleons troops were definitely killed by yellow fever, including his brother in law who was in charge. The French were still on the island until 1808, and returned 20 years later with gun ships and forced Haiti to pay for their independence. Read a book.
I think the missing link to this story that everyone is looking for is where the techniques might have come from. A really good explanation for that would be Adbaraya Toya, the woman who trained Dessalines and many others for the revolution. She was a Mino warrior from Dahomey, a group of women who acted as a sort of special guard to the kind and country.
Hi. Just wondered if there is any more information on the women who fought in the haitian revolution? I have some books on the revolution - CLR James black jacobins has no mention of this woman LOL.
@@mjanny6330 No one forgets it. But why would we always talk about that ? Napoleon brought slavery back, but do you always mention slavery in the comment sections of videos talking about Napoleon ? I don't think so.
Unlike sword fighting that has hilts and guards, you can't just block with a machete. You have to let it flow and 'guide' it, moving your body instead. It's a really elegant form of fighting once you understand it.
Nah, it was a a full army with cavalary, infantry, canons, and european wars veterans as officers. It's a by design they call it slave revolt as if a bunch off slaves running aroung could defeat the most powerful army on earth, Napoleon army
@@Addi_Teacha509 yet neither you nor I have presented any type of information :) you mention I believe in tales and that you run by facts but I see neither here. But truth and fact is found in that the Count of Rochembau left the island and would never return again.
@@angelsc7588 if you wanted to learn you could listen to Haitian historian..do you know about the Haitian volunteers that fought in the US revolution against the brits.. you know about the military career of Toussaint L'ouverture beating the British and Spanish for the French, so many Haitian natives, many mixte ones that were officers.. you know about Dessalines beating the strongest nation in Europe.. you know about the battle were the French army asked for a truce to applaud the bravery of Capois La Mort? You come loaded with your ignorance with such arrogance that don't warrant any exercise of learning.. so if you want to learn you can, or can continue with whatever you want to believe.
To pose a simple question; If he didn't know what he was doing, had no stance, no structure, and was just a bumpkin with a machete. Who the hell taught his students to move, parry, and strike in the ways shown.
That my friend is a secret he personally would have to teach you. Im Haitian and our elders who have knowledge about certain things don't give out secrets to just anyone
You seem to have a problem understanding. He clearly explained that the knowledge was given to him by a spirit that descended from a tree (similar experiences have been described by Chamans and Black Magic practitioners in Africa).
@Jermaine Savory Don't be weird, they are African, they were shipped to country and later Haitian be their ethnicity. Just like in Jamaica there are Chinese Jamaicans, you think people are going to say "they're not Asian because their family has been there for 20 years." Nope.
He teaches them, to crawl before you walk, walk before you run, run before you sprint,sprint before you fly......cultivate techniques before you are attacked.....he's a master of his soul......a master of his game, and if you think you can kill him......how can judge a book by its cover......fear the man that practices one technique 10,000 times.....you'll learn
@@Wastelandman7000 my father is half Cherokee (the part that stayed in SC, we have a story about that) and he taught me a little about fighting with a tomahawk. Its a important skill that is not taught to modern children

Many criticisms from “internet experts” on here. Yet some of these techniques were passed down to these people from ancestors that took on 3 great European powers of their time: France, Britain and Spain freeing their people from oppression and slavery.
I Feel much respect for the way you write trying to defend these people AND their style, but yet they didn't acpmplish to takedown or defeat Europeans, It was their ancesters, so where or why have they prooved to be good fencers? They probably learned good stuff from ancesters but they Also probably watered It down removing sparring over the years passed, I am a recreational boxer AND fencer, do a lot of sparring AND real contact practice, AND I see their tecnique very very poor AND impractical.
@@antonioflores425 you gotta remember, a machete and a foil are two different weapons, a machete is much heavier, so while one good chop almost anywhere is liable to do some damage, it is not fast enough to be comparable to boxing or fencing. the techniques presented here are also watered down for sparring, as he is using the flat of the blade, in which case, the movements are slowed down even more by wind resistance.
+indigoxyz18 You can't get knicked with a blunt blade. Only bruised. He parried his son, and then definitely gave him a little knick on the cheek for not being prepared for the obvious followup riposte. His son just got parried and then froze for that crucial half a second. Doesn't look like it immediately, but slowed down there are definitely similarities between Tire Machete and classical European fencing.
Reading the comments and it seems like people don't believe this is a skill. Most of the same people believe that in this 11 min video, he was supposed to show ALL of his secrets and sparring techniques with HIS OWN KIDS/FOREIGNERS with SHARP-ASS BLADES to legitimize his craft to a group of people that have never had a paper cut before... Seems Legit Oh and it seems like everyone forgot THAT HE LIT A FUCKING CANDLE USING NOTHING BUT HIS HAND AND A BOTTLE LITERALLY 2:10 INTO THE VIDEO! All I'm saying is this: Even if he was "The Town Drunk" or "Sluggish and Exposed his back too much" Give respect where it's do. A sluggish drunk put 22 people through school and could never ask google how to do it, give the man some props ffs...

Improvise, Adapt ,Overcome ... This is the true essence of this legendary country.I remember seeing these demonstrations like this living as a kid back 2001 in Haiti.
I wouldn't say that African countries are still being sabotaged but I will say that they are still reeling from an era that kept them behind and allowed the world around them to develop. A country like Haiti, not African I know but similar situation, is decades behind easily.
This is Ogun. That's the "spirit" who he says came to him. Ogun is the spirit of metal and wilderness. He lived in exile and carved out the jungle. My family maintained secret shrines to him for generations. My own life mirrored Ogun's story, and it served as my initiation. I now teach skills like this, and more, the skills I learned in my own "exile." I wrote a book "Backwoods Shamanism" talking about some of the spiritual practices of my family. Under another pen name, due to different subject matter, I wrote "Hatchie-Ryu Ninpo, an overview" telling my story and giving an outline of the things I teach.
@@DVDRAR The greater the skill, the more intensity in practice (or reality). Beginners practice slowly and with limited techniques. Expert "play" is more lively, and then there is combat, such as accepting challenges.

What sorcery did he use to light that candle at 2:12 it looks like he just waves him thumb over it and it lights.
Probably the same "spirit" he talked about lit the candle. I'm guessing that the tree near him is a Ficus religiosa, wich is (was?) famous in India for being home for elementals. He probably makes offerings by that tree, like when he spills some booze on the ground. Either that or his thumb is really hot.
Raigens it's probably a magic trick or slight of hand. If it is he is really good a it because the motion seemed very natural.
Yes, it might be trickery. The movements he makes with the bottle are rather suspicious.

As in, he doesn't have to perform his stances because everyone learned enough about this combat-style knows he is in total control.

He was projecting all of this attacks, he left his back open and no one took advantage (IE they were just dancing). In the last bit of the video the "Master" struck his student in the face while "Sparring", that's a big no no. You don't have to be a master in Martial arts to know this "Master" is just some drunk dude with too much time on his hands.
youre a sword master from watching bleach eh? /s
robert williams Neckbeard weeaboo
***** I've taken martial art classes. But still Leave Bleach out of this, it was such a good anime. Thing is I've never seen my master make a mistake while doing actual sparring (Not what was in this video). Sorry, just from any perspective, that old dude made too many mistakes in just that one video for me to consider him an elite of anything.
As a dominican, I’m expected to have bad blood towards the Haitians from both Haitians and Dominicans, but I have nothing but respect and love for their culture, I wish for peace and prosperity to our brothers, L’union fait la force! 🇩🇴❤🇭🇹

Bro date a Haitian 👩🏽 that came to🇺🇸as a teen. The level of respect, honor and humility is like no other.
It takes balls of steel to actually be able to wield machetes at each other and some of ya’ll acting like experts
Having balls and being dumb are closely related to each other.
nyhyl They have always been closely related together so what's your point?
Balls of steel to do choreography? I don't think so
이치고 I mean it’s not a wrong observation to note that a machete is a hacking weapon not a slicing weapon like this guy is doing.
I reside in the Caribbean. I witnessed one machete fight. It was gruesome. Hopefully it's the last one I see
The Rhum he's drinking is called Rhum barbancourt, it's the most reputable Rhum in Haiti. It's exported throughout the Caribbean and also the states. It's often used to celebrate and also ceremonial purposes, a lot of people who practice voodoo use it to invoke lwa (spirits). When papa machete pour before drinking and passing it to his guests it's a sign of respect and fraternity. Great video Btw
I train in and have taught filipino martial arts and I admit this is impressive. Machete fencing and FMA are derived from the Spanish or French invasion and controlled over the territories. much respect to this guy
eriklane78 what fma system do you teach?
Pete Zauw And what martial arts are you learning? Unless you're just trolling, I seriously want to know.

Pete Zauw I have only a little experience with karate and kung fu. I only got to purple belt then had to stop. But what I want to know is how exactly is what this guy is doing wrong when you just said you haven't trained in this. I'm not trying to be be disrespectful, I'm just genuinely curious.

You should have more respect than that. It was a cute joke that got u some likes, but it's not funny. This elders life and toil isn't something to joke about so flippantly. If u were a martial artist you'd know what he's doing. I play with the blade. I can see what he's doing and he's doing some deep shit! If u are a martial artist...shame on you. Find something else to throw jokes at. This man's skills aren't for joking. He raised 11 children and put them all through school in Haiti and you have the nerve to call him the town drunk? You've never worked a hard day in your life if you can fix your mouth to call a farmer lazy.

Torterra Boy he needs to be a character on smash bros
You're joking right? Because I didn't see any real sparring taking place throughout the entire video. They were doing 2 things, dancing, and projecting their attacks. Also in the last bit of the video the "Master" screwed up and struck his student in the face, which was his fault. Again just to be clear, I didn't see anything in this video that would lead me to think this guy is a master fencer of any kind.
I bet that's the exact same thing Napoleons' pomp ass army said in 1802 when they where sent to combat the Haitian Revolution: "I don't see any real sparring taking place...."
What you call "dancing and projecting" in this video is what defeated Napoleons Grand Armée, probably the greatest combat force ever assembled.
Actually Yellow Fever is what defeated Napoleons' army. This man has never been in an actual machete fight.
Thousands of Napoleons troops were definitely killed by yellow fever, including his brother in law who was in charge. The French were still on the island until 1808, and returned 20 years later with gun ships and forced Haiti to pay for their independence. Read a book.
One of the deepest fighting styles ever
I think the missing link to this story that everyone is looking for is where the techniques might have come from. A really good explanation for that would be Adbaraya Toya, the woman who trained Dessalines and many others for the revolution. She was a Mino warrior from Dahomey, a group of women who acted as a sort of special guard to the kind and country.
Wow
Hi. Just wondered if there is any more information on the women who fought in the haitian revolution? I have some books on the revolution - CLR James black jacobins has no mention of this woman LOL.
Learn something new. Thnaks!!
And fought to keep their slaves.
Strange how everyone forgets that part.
@@mjanny6330 No one forgets it. But why would we always talk about that ?
Napoleon brought slavery back, but do you always mention slavery in the comment sections of videos talking about Napoleon ? I don't think so.
Unlike sword fighting that has hilts and guards, you can't just block with a machete. You have to let it flow and 'guide' it, moving your body instead. It's a really elegant form of fighting once you understand it.
I'm by no means an expert but is it true that his skill comes from the timberlands?
Maybe it comes from Timberlake

Beautiful story, brave people. Cheers from Brasil!
To pose a simple question;
If he didn't know what he was doing, had no stance, no structure, and was just a bumpkin with a machete.
Who the hell taught his students to move, parry, and strike in the ways shown.
That my friend is a secret he personally would have to teach you. Im Haitian and our elders who have knowledge about certain things don't give out secrets to just anyone
J- XL it’s so bad it’s an african thing yo
I imagine machete fighting is very similar to the cutlass. Just with much less focus on the thrust.
You seem to have a problem understanding. He clearly explained that the knowledge was given to him by a spirit that descended from a tree (similar experiences have been described by Chamans and Black Magic practitioners in Africa).

Many criticisms from “internet experts” on here. Yet some of these techniques were passed down to these people from ancestors that took on 3 great European powers of their time: France, Britain and Spain freeing their people from oppression and slavery.
Yes but there are always better techniques some criticism is good especially in martial arts as it can literally save your life.
I Feel much respect for the way you write trying to defend these people AND their style, but yet they didn't acpmplish to takedown or defeat Europeans, It was their ancesters, so where or why have they prooved to be good fencers? They probably learned good stuff from ancesters but they Also probably watered It down removing sparring over the years passed, I am a recreational boxer AND fencer, do a lot of sparring AND real contact practice, AND I see their tecnique very very poor AND impractical.
@@antonioflores425 you gotta remember, a machete and a foil are two different weapons, a machete is much heavier, so while one good chop almost anywhere is liable to do some damage, it is not fast enough to be comparable to boxing or fencing. the techniques presented here are also watered down for sparring, as he is using the flat of the blade, in which case, the movements are slowed down even more by wind resistance.
They spar with live steel? Daymn...
IndigoXYZ18 il efudududufu7
They just touched swords, they did not try for a body shot a single time and they moved their swords slowly.
kkpappas One of them got knicked tho.
They were slow dancing with live steel. I didn't see a single attack. You can't spar with live steel without a shield of some kind, or armour.
+indigoxyz18 You can't get knicked with a blunt blade. Only bruised. He parried his son, and then definitely gave him a little knick on the cheek for not being prepared for the obvious followup riposte. His son just got parried and then froze for that crucial half a second.
Doesn't look like it immediately, but slowed down there are definitely similarities between Tire Machete and classical European fencing.

This is Ogun. That's the "spirit" who he says came to him. Ogun is the spirit of metal and wilderness. He lived in exile and carved out the jungle. My family maintained secret shrines to him for generations.
