I'm American, Caucasian, Male and from the Southern States and I don't give two pennies worth what this man's garb is, or his skin color or that he's foreign. I learned a great deal from this informative and beautifully choreographed video. I say God bless you sir for blessing me with your teachings. You learn from all or you learn nothing.
Your last line was impressive....global learning.
This is actually North Indian martial arts and Northern form of combat here in India.
I recommend you South Indian style of combat too....especially Kalaripayattu- the most ancient martial art from which modern Kung Fu is believed to have originated. I recommend Vinayan Gurukkals videos to learn the southern style. He speaks the native language not English to not easy to understand.

@@vinithmenon7809 good info BTW did you notice he commented 10 years ago 😂😂
@@looser8749 Yes ofcourse i did. It wae actually me who viewed this video 10 years later.
"A sense of humor is required...it takes all the pressure off all the gruesome things we do" So very true and so applicable to the art I studied as well.
"A fight begins, with footwork"
As an ex martial artist trainee, i cant believe this guy's the only one who actually admitted how important this is. Or am i that lacking with youtube exploration? :p
Yes, the way he describe it aint the best, buuuut the context is something that i can relate to.
Respect.
I've yet to see a martial arts video that wasn't patently bollocks. This one included. I love how they always show these ballsy moves on pliable students. This sort of shit, like all fanciful martial arts, will not survive contact with the enemy. I worked in law enforcement fresh out of college for shy of a decade, and I never once encountered a single use for fancy types of martial arts by the defender nor the aggressor. Brute force wins the day. Whoever can put more lead down range faster and on target, or escalate the conflict successfully through armed or blunt force methods wins. The average street fight leading to a fatality lasts under six seconds. Remember that, and take the one solid move when you don't outnumber the opponent; retreat and call for backup.
@@bashkillszombies I do agree with you but not one everything. First, understand that MOST martial arts right now are not taught in America with the same rigor and practice as in places like south america, India, China , Japan, etc. Due to a sue happy culture in America and i speak from personal experience. I have been to 4+ karate dojo and all of them were joke no full contact sparing, body padding, no conditioning and more. Until i came to my current dojo whose instructor is a 2nd generation direct disciple of Goju Ryu karate and here we dont fucken joke and actually learn and apply what we learn in full contact sparing. I could go on explain but the second main point i want to make is that many martial arts were invented recently and definitely not for show. Back in the date people fought to the death against one and other. It was used in war and more. So, if you saw that martial arts don't work then i you are saying that it was taught to warrior for show and they all died in war. Brute force does will against a normal person 90% of the time but against a true trained martial arts not always. It like saying that an seal team 6 marine will get his ass handed to him just because the oppontent is bigger, no the marines have trained years and years in combat to kill people. Can the marine lose, of course but no likely due to his training.
Maul565 is another one too
Bruce Lee
@@bashkillszombies you seem angry so I'm gonna say you hot drunk and tried some technical preplanned assault on some weak nobody and that same weakling had a flash of instinct kick in and you got embarrassed real quick.I can read through bullshit too but I'm gonna wager my experience trumps yours. I've never attempted a pre planned onslaught. I was always defending or preventing other people from. Being harmed or losing a lifetime to our shitty injustice system which is racist and classist. If TMA popped in it was an understanding of mechanics and anatomy, feeling of movement and my instinct and awareness tellong me where and when instantaneously. I trusted myself 100% and if you add that to the effectiveness of any art be it 10% or 50% effective I was 110%-150% effective. Hey if you are sore because America hates cops now look at it this way no bbn one really thanked me either. The best I've ever heard was "goodthing you were right there." Like I'm supposed to be their personal guardian. These were all tough guys who had something to prove when I didn't. I don't see it as winning but doing what needs done. You take out the trash at home right? Well these streets are full of trash and the justice system is all fancy self assured techniques. Cops take military judo and boxing. Both are 90% effective or highly instinctive.
Wahe guruji ka khalsa wahe guruji ki Fateh 🙏🙏🙏
Proud of you Sir and appreciate your efforts in trying to preserve and present to the world our ancient art.
I never saw when he drew the dagger ^^ damn thats sneaky =). good video!
All the very best from your Wing Chun brothers in Chicago. -Dominick Izzo
Are you that disgraced former cop?
People say that he isnt a nihang but it doesnt matter for me as i like his videos.
This guy is fantastic. 2:03: Guy just walking normally; "...this is what you're not gonna notice..."...this is the point at which I knew I was watching quality material. 4:21: I saw the kirpan on the left, but have no idea where he pulled the shank from; more quality material. 7:36: Guy just standing there. This is the best stuff I've ever seen. 9:21: "And the weapons are concealed all over the body; numerous weapons, different types of weapons". I love this guy. I won't comment any more. There's just too much. ~shaking my head~
I've been sparring with my dad since I was 9 years old. I appreciate ALL martial arts with great reverence and respect. I am an instant fan of you sir! subscribed! greetings from the Philippines
I'll be in Paranaque soon. Lets connect so we can do some friendly sparing bro. My fiance is Filipina.
I have studied Ju Jitsu for 10 years and you sir are an indisputable boss & Great teacher!
Well Nihang Sikhs are one of the greatest warriors for a reason.
HAHAHA . . . it was a real pleasure watching this video. I've been involved with the Martial Arts for over 53 years and, although a Master of none, except my own Method, (Hidden Form), I have enough experience to confidentially say, in my not so humble opinion, that everything you said is valid . . . particularly regarding the more advanced stages where it's difficult to see that you are using any Martial Art Method at all.
I had always told my students that it should appear to bystanders that you tried to cover up when an attacker threw a punch and ran his nose into your elbow . . . (this aspect is particularly important for Security personnel, Police, Guards, etc.).
Perhaps more importantly, is that the methodology being used here can be applied by almost anyone, (within reason), regardless of size, gender or age.
I'm glad that I saw this while on my search for Martial Arts Styles for one of my first students and adopted brothers.
Be Well
making up your own style.? yeah you are a fake
I was amazed how much information about culture behind the martial art was shown in this video. Absolutely down to earth explanation and a lot of quality! Much respect and thank you for sharing!
DAMN! I have never realize how similar Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu and this is. Do not misunderstand me: I do not think all the movements are the same or similar, they are not, but all the basic principles mentioned here are what we in Bujinkan stress every training. The delineament, distance, tactical positions, three point control, visible/invisible movements, and so on are basically the same. Hip movements, spinal manipulations and the footwork are building on the same principles it seems. Most of the applications of the techniques also are very similar. Very interesting! Thanks for the opportunity to see this!
Brilliant sample of some truly high-level techniques taught by a master...as a British Army veteran (who proudly served with many Sikhs) I had heard a bit about this form over the years and continue to find myself more impressed with every demonstration! THANK YOU!
Thank you for sharing this. Shastarvidiya platha is fascinating. I can see how it influenced all Asian martial arts, and can even see similarities to Systema. I also enjoyed the energy and enthusiasm with which you presented it.
I commend you on pointing out that all fighting begins with footwork & misalignment. Also, I am seldom impressed with martial arts demos, as I am a lifelong practitioner with a life time of experience in real world violence from street, military, and prison. Your style is very realistic, seemingly very effective, and relies upon simplicity-which is always effective in real combat. I like your teaching style & presentation. Many blessings be upon you my brother! Peace & strength be with you! Aho!
Yeah that's because nihang Sikhs are deadly warriors.
I have seen many things in my life... I want to thank you for this great gift. It is profound and beautiful in all respects. I am filled with joy and gratitude. May you be blessed with peace.
he has deduced the formula of every move like a professor, i love the way he explains,,
SAT SRI AKAL GURUJI
i have been doing martial arts all my life, and have studied Korean, Japanese,Chinese,Thai,Brazilian,boxing and wrestling. in all my training i can see the simplicity and the efficiancy of you art, you sir are a true martial artist. please make for videos.
I respect your effort to preserve one of the most wonderful martial art in the world (In my opinion). Furthermore, as a aikido learner I feel so exciting that the principle in aikido is quite similarly in Sanatan Shastarvidiya, for example move with the mass body or do not let the opornent to adjust his stance. I hope in the future I can see you in Meblourne, Australia and wish you all the luck
Beautiful, The Birth of" MARTIAL SCIENCE" is from combat. " Martial Arts" now those are good sports. Off center then Attack.
Good introduction Guru.
I like this guy, it looks like a very fun and functional style. Really glad he talks a lot about the culture of the style as well, instead of just "this is what you do, and here's why". Everything evolves from your culture, the Martial Arts are all relative.
i only came across this video by chance, and was just skimming through it initially. it didn't take me long to realise that i was watching someone who 'has the goods'. thank you for your generous sharing.
This art is great. The philosophies you've presented in this video are genius. I've been a martial artist for most of my life and train in styles like Silat, Kali, Chinese Kung Fu, JKD, Western Boxing, etc. and the concepts you explain here exemplify what all combat art strives to.
Yep. Still at present, Nihang Sikhs are one of the bravest if not the bravest warriors in the world. They use this martial art. Their effectiveness is so great that 21 Sikh warriors killed 600 soldiers in 19th century in the battle of saraghiri.
This is actually great footage.
You can watch a true Master here.
If you watch his eyes closely you see the Grim Reaper.
underated video and we need more videos of platha on youtube
This is not self defence ,this is battlefield war art , he is trying to preserve it .
I studied Shaolin Kempo for 18 years. Moves are all identical, standing up, and grappling. As a matter of fact, Kenpo / Kempo was one of the first martial Arts around thousands of years ago. It derived from "Budadharma", the Ancient Buddhist monks. They ventured from India and taught the Monks at the Shalolin Temple in China, a empty hand fighting system to protect themselves. The Chinese Monks kept getting persecuted from the Government, thieves, and were in too bad of a physical condition to fight. The Hindu / Buddhist Monks crossed over the mountains to get the monks back into physical condition by the "exercises" they showed them, and how to utilize these "exercises" for self defense."
For now everybody, train hard, be aware, and stay safe in these uncertain times.
.
India originated Buddhism and the Asian martial arts, but I never even think about it since Indian's aren't opening up martial arts schools all over the place like the karate guys did. I've seen guys moving like this guy. It's very distinctive. Now I'm wondering if whatever Indian guys I've seen moving like that are martial arts guys.
This guy is such a SNEAKY sob. I'd love to train with him. Everything he's doing is so much different from the things I've ever seen and done that I'm sure I'd learn a ton training with him.
I appriciate ur knowledge abt origins of martial arts... These chinese know the truth but they never admit it that Indian priests went to visit china temple of budha and there they found that the local theives were attacking the temple and loot it...then they teach them the martial arts and it became flourished there as a tool of self defence....
Beth Talvola There used to be a martial art called Mukti Boxing or in it's traditional term Musti Yuddha which was a kind of requisite to South East Asian styles of fighting such as Muay Thai or even more so Lethwei. It was banned by the British during the colony some time in the early 1900's -
Kalaripayyatu which is considered the first Asian martial art and a predecessor to East Asian fighting schools still is in practice in Kerala, but it's not on all that impressive fighting style to me.
unfortunately, most of the Indians I meet are caught up in being business owners, high paid professionals or itinerant miracle preachers. Very very few know their history pre-independence and any native martial art system.
"India originated the Asian martial arts" nonsence!
He seems like a good spirited man.
He is nihung singh fully baptised sikh
Very interesting stuff. People can criticize, but this is much more practical talk and ideas in 17 minutes than most people hear in Chinese or Japanese arts in hours. I'm a fan.
There is great beauty in this highly developed culture…..hopefully it is never lost.
Some beautiful techniques and the theory is dead on. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely wonderful display of your expertise and you definitely caught my attention I certainly pay close attention to your move even though I know that's not the same as practicing
that's why the best martial art is... the one that teaches you... HUMILITY & RESPECT in first place.
I really enjoyed your video. Being able to judge the distance so that you are just out of range of the attack is something that I notice with high level instructors and fighters.
You people can criticize and analyze this guy all you want. But I don't think anyone from outside Indian culture is looking at this from some kind of cultural or religious point of view. Most people are just looking at the techniques in terms of combat value. Therefore I personally don't care who outed him or who complained about his Hindu connection or anything related to Sikh culture. I'm sure it's important to the indians but most people totally don't care. We are just looking at what he is doing. I say if someone wants to challenge him go and fight him. What is all this talk? Just talking doesn't do anything. If you think he's fake then go fight this guy and videotape it. Then you can prove if he is good or bad.
AtomicDynamo if i could fight this dued i would but i live in america and its people like this that teach others bad combat tactics that get them killed thats why its important to out people like this
The problem is some people still live in 4900BC and think all Indians should live like that back then
Amazing, Im seeing concepts and skills here that I learnt in Chen Taiji Quan. Keep this style alive Master.
This really helped me to understand Fiore and his Abrazare. The necessity for humor in combat, the emphasis on footwork, starting with your hands low, it's all the same.
Thank You for your many years of hard work.
It is not possible to get everything across at one breath , however, you have presented everything very well.
may your effort not go unrewarded .
one of the ideas that i have read years ago was in a book that came to me ,
"Deg Teg Fatha"
May the Sword and the Free Kitchen Prevail .

in the first five minutes all he is teaching is distance/ spacing/ ringcraft. shut up and listen and you might just learn something youll miss in your mma class.
David Jones t
@Sam The Sham Bro...i notice that near all the comments talking about mma or complementing this video, you are there talking shit. Man you have right to opinion but serious if you were a true martial artist have respect for another art even if you think it is shit...which i can argue, but that not the point. Get a life unless you survive on insulting other people and the culture.
this video gives away so MANY secrets ( in Poe's "the stolen letter" sense, simple crystal clear things everyone forgets) I wonder why he hasn't been sent the ninjas to by the martial arts community. I am very curious to know how he develops eye-feet coohordination to do what he does, coz it's not only about understanding the distance, but moving the whole body at the right moment. priceless clip
If they sent ninjas, ninjas would run away witnessing a nihang Sikh. Nihang Sikh doesn't know fear.
True martial art
True master
What he truly understands are hard to put into words
Very enjoyable. I have trained Pencak Silat and see many conceptual similarities. Very nice to see such fine demonstration and lecture. Wonderfully apparent knowledge base. Fascinating art.
It is very gratifying to see other arts from other parts of the world coming to the same conclusions and explanations as the Japanese arts I study. This is nice stuff.
A lot of European systems come to the same conclusions as well. It is quite incredible, I agree.
Yeah well its an ancient Indian art...its in the name.. his akhara (dojo) dates back to 1600s....jist fyi......i love japanese martial arts btw
Whole asia is influenced by indian arts ,culture and philosophy ,u will find similaritiea
Wow this is truly an amazing art. I was so suprised to see that it has a lot of similarities with pukulan betawi. I know every art uses the basics, but still I was suprised.
6.21 minute in the video is the place where the practicality of this system shines , the shin/ knee break kick is also the vital kicks of JKD which also emphasised is all about real life fighting and confontration rather than a sport
Excellent. You are a very good instructor. It's amazing to see likeminded people from many places around the world who have many diverse but commonly themed backgrounds.
Very interesting. I can see some concepts shared with Wing Chun. Thank you for sharing your art.
This is theory and expectations far from reality.
dumbass this is battle tested,look up about the sikh wars.BTW how many battles have you fought my man?
your students are very lucky, and you are blessed to have learned what you know
happy for all of you
thanks, awesome stuff, its good to see another perceptive on the same thing, you remind me of my old teacher and his teacher
I like how he shows punching coming from the hips. Because knives would be concealed in your belt which is on your hips. This explains, I think, the prevalence of punching from the hip in arts like Taekwondo, Karate styles, and Chinese arts. It's a throwback to an earlier age.
Search the origin of All these Martial arts , it was from Bodhidharma.
An Indian Monk who traveled to China & taught them self defence.
What I find most striking is its commonality with full proper Roman Grappling/Fighting. Which is also rare/almost extinct. Roman Grappling/Fighting was all about range, but less about striking and more about throwing off guard, to be followed by a short sword to the rip cage. But with years of practise, as regards Roman Wrestling, by mastering footing and range the same principle applies to what is seen in this video; that conventional western fighting doesn't stand a chance. Essentially, conventional western fighting is fought in 2d, or at most, moving 2d. Roman Grappling/Fighting, and the great style seen in this video, is fully 3d.
Much respect! This art should be passed on!!!
Roman fighting is Western fighting.
this is the Original Art , Shaolin Kung Fu came from here as well as Indonesia Malaysia and Philippines especially when Philippines and Indonesia were Sri- Vijaya and Madjapahit Empires
Mokkari77 what do you think about Mentu Kemetic Arts in relation...? Oso Tayari Casel...
Arts interacted and evolved over time... what is first can't be known, what is timeless... maybe that can be known. All systems use time, space, the human form. The question I'd ask isn't what is oldest, but what most approaches the ideal and universal martial art.
I think this is the most perfect martial art in the world.
Amazing. Beautiful. Effective. Thank you Ji. Sat Siri Skaal🙏🏽
Nice, thanks for posting. It certainly an eye opener to the martial arts of India. And it's nice you've demonstrated it with flair and humour.
Brutal techniques
Bole sonihal sat sri akal jai sri ram 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Brilliant and informative, my old man was always banging on about Indian martial arts, but until now I had never seen a decent demonstration
Well done love your way of teaching well done. It is nice to see a true martial artist.
The video says "unarmed combat" the first thing... he pulls a knife... then a sword comes into play! funny, but very interesting.
Reginald Scot he has been exposed as a fraud already, insulting all the other warriors back in Panjab by suggesting he's the "Last" Sikh warrior.. and for lying about who he received his teachings from. The real Sikh Army in Panjab, The Nihang Sikhs have clearly stated that he is nothing to with them.

Oh dear... :(
Shindi Singh Because they are revisionist Sikhs. Even they know nothing of their own old traditions. So they think they "exposed" him but they only made themselves look stupid.
explain what you mean by "revisionist Sikhs" please? Also, could you tell me what old traditions they have lost please?
Wow this is fantastic
fantastic! i had heard rumours of such arts and traditions existing, but until now they were just that. thank you so much for having the courage to confirm the existence of such. i believe that because the human body works in specific ways, all martial arts overlap at some point. a joint can only be manipulated so many ways, balance upset, form contorted, so it's lovely to see parallels between this and so many other forms. i would prefer to guard myself if challenged though: my reactions, hmm.
Very cool!! I have never heard of this martial-art before. I'm going to watch all the clips.
This is incredibly similar to Taoist internal martial arts. The three styles shown correspond VERY closely to Xingyi, Bagua and Tai Chi. Only this is by far the most macho Tai Chi I've ever seen. Makes sense... Taiji philosophy is a philosophy of energy, and the union between the rising force (yang) and the descending force (yin). Siva is the energy master, the rising force, with the feminine fully incorporated within him. So Saivism and Taoism are actually very similar, except that Saivism puts way more emphasis on the phallus, and as a result is far more macho in practice. Fascinating. I'd love to hear what Nidar Singh Nihang has to say about the Taoist fighting styles these arts resemble, and whether he knows of any exchange between Saivite and Taoist combat systems (for example, did he or his teacher or his teacher's teacher ever study Bagua or Tai Chi? Or could Dong Haichuan, the founder of Bagua, have studied from a Hindu master?)
MAC KASH What he calls the "Siva" style uses the same mechanics as Tai Chi, focusing on the rising and sinking forces. Do you have much experience with Tai Chi? If you've only seen the form practiced, the similarities might not be obvious, but the applications are very similar, as are the underlying principles. In the 20th century a lot of Tai Chi practitioners moved away from the traditional combative emphasis, but this isn't far off from how Tai Chi would look if the practitioner wasn't focused on the superficial and used the techniques with subtlety. Same concepts. One part of the body is rising while the other is falling, neutralising the opponent's movement and using their momentum against them, sinking the weight to pull them almost effortlessly to the ground
MAC KASH It's the way he shifts the weight that caught my eye, not just that he shifts his weight... each of the three styles he shows shift weight in a fundamentally different way, which corresponds surprisingly well to the three Taoist "internal" styles. Tai Chi, and this Siva style, are extremely subtle and deceptive, and few martial arts work quite like that. When talking about it with words it can sound like other styles do these things too (everyone shifts their weight, of course), but the details, and the theory of why you'd do what when, is usually distinctive in each style
MAC KASH Yes, I practice Bagua, Xingyi and Taiji, which is why I was able to recognise them here
MAC KASH Tai Chi is the more anglicised version, it's the same as Taiji, which is the same as Taijiquan. It literally means "fist of great extremes" -- Taiji philosophy is concerned with expanding and contracting, yang and yin, and takes place between Wuji (no extremes) and Wuji. It's been taught alongside Bagua and Xingyi since about 1900... there was a group of martial artists and scholars in Beijing at that time who learned each of these styles and influenced many schools which would emerge later. Sun Lutang, founder of Sun style, was particularly influential... Cheng Tinghua was another... my teachers are Donna Oliver and Andy James, whose Bagua and Xingyi traces back to Geng Jishan, who learned bagua from Cheng Tinghua. It's very common nowadays for these arts to be taught together... if you look around RUclips you'll find examples, like sifurudycurryjr
MAC KASH There are no videos of me doing martial arts, and I'm also not an expert by any means. Like many practitioners, I'm an "advanced beginner" -- ten years of inconsistent practice, including maybe 3 or 4 years of around an hour most days, enough to be somewhat competent but not enough to attain mastery. Anyway there are lots of good channels for this stuff on RUclips... Xing Yi Academy for instance only started recently but has a lot of excellent content already, explains it really well. One way my teacher described the three internal styles is it's like a ball... Tai Chi is a rolling ball, Bagua a spinning ball, Xingyi a cannon ball. Or it's like a dragon... Tai Chi is the tail of the dragon, Bagua the hips of the dragon, Xingyi the head of the dragon
that man is dangerious not because he moves fast but because he has no wasted movements.
I would say he moves with stealth and stillness.He moves like a street magician
That's why Sikh warriors one of the most terrifying warriors to this day. So when someone wears a blue cloth and wears a turban, know that he is a Nihang Sikh and not to be messed with. But character wise they are wonderful humans. Very kind .
The Sikhs have a proud military history …..my old fella was a British para and while based in Palestine in 1945- 47 in a camp at Gaza , the para camp was next to a Indian Sikh camp and obviously the Paras were a elite unit but l clearly remember him saying to be that “ they were all big hard bastards “ …now that’s a complement!!.
I like it, it's very fluid and economical in motion, very subtle, yet very effective. Awesome! DJ
Wasn't there a video where he was outed to be a fake nihang?
+bob bobby yes
Is Gatka a real martial arts?
+bob bobby An unproven allegation made.
+SuperYoshikong Gatka is mostly for show.
No, there was just a video of some intolerant Sikhs dissing him for referring to Hindu deities. There's nothing fake about him, or if there is none of them have actually presented it. If you watch those videos they're pure hate with no substance.
Where is this school located?
Guru Nidar Singhji you are great and it would be agreat luck to have a chance to get training from you it is our lost art and only because of some great people like you this art of survival is surviving . I am Hindu Kshatriya and love very much this art and couldn't find any real Kshatriya martial artist with this much great knowledge . All have some but not full like you sir . you are great .
Wonderful demonstration of a wonderful art....please do not let this go extinct!
I'll make sure never to upset a Sikh

@@hirabeats8746 why??Yeah sikhs are strong,brave and bold.But fighting needs guts more than skills.
Md Uousuf Read some sikh history, and then tell me if sikhs have guts or not
@@hirabeats8746 Did I say. Sikhs dont have guts??I told they were brave.I just meant that sikhs arent the only people who have guts.And history?I read life history of Maharaja Ranjit singh. Its enough.
He’s not a actual Sikh he preaches the opposite of the Sikh teachings just look up his name with apology after and you will see a video of him apologizing for what he’s done also this is not actually how Sikhs fight we learn to fight from a method called gatka
Apparently he doesn't have full approval from the Gurus in the Sikh warrior nation. they say he was embarrassed and outed at The 300 year celebration. I feel for Maul Mornie..he showcased him at an event. Look him up for great movement and silat techniques. Look up Sikh Youth Birmingham channel. they have the outed video
can you give me the name of the video?
Apparently,some sikhs want to discredit him because he doesn't subscribe to the religious views held by the majority in their religion. I looked him up at bullshido and it seems they believe he is authentic.
Several masters like Pat O Malley have endorsed him and that alone is enough to conclude that he is authentic.
Arunjith Sasidhar so it is simply a disagreement on beliefs and they are trying to discredit his whole career for it?
these days that's all it takes. One man's disagreement could be another's moral compass thru line. Means more to one than the other. either way his applications of technique are fluid and his use of movement. Essential in the end aside from his lineage argument.
YoDipset honestly the only thing that interested me was if his martial teachings were sound other than that I could give two fucks about ideologies and philosophical beliefs.
This is the first of your videos that I've seen. Wow. Rarely have I seen or heard a discussion of self-defense begin by saying defense starts with footwork, and yet, this is so true. Your art is intriguing and I enjoyed your sense of humor during the video presentation. I'll be watching more of your videos. Thank you for sharing your insights.
i"m very impressed you are a good teacher, patient, would love to meet you someday.
i could tell you have been teaching for many years you look very natural at it.
Stepping like that with feet crossed, at that point you will have no balance, no capability to transfer body weight to a shot and be vulnerable to being taken down. It's obvious his student has no or little knowledge of striking.
Without huge conditioning and accuracy training, single knuckle strikes and finger jabs are going to cause you more injury than the attacker
He's walking like normal. The feet are crossing, watch boxers move they step their feet without crossing them
Seriously guy? different forms of combat use different foot work, simple as that. Ultimately its going to come down to who put the most time training and a little bit of luck.
An untrained person armed with a knife against a skilled trained unarmed combatant, I would say that the knife wielder has a significant advantage, So I can't disagree with the first part of your comment.
Just to clarify my initial comment was aimed at his student not him.
I watched many videos now and as a martial artist myself - I don´t see it working in sparring, fights or self defense. I understand that this is more for explaination but so many things doesn´t make sense to me - for example 14:45 - most things see so theoretic for me - I would like to see this in actual sparring.
Alfheri it's not for sport, it's for killing.
And? All martial arts I do are designed for killing and still they need to work in sparring.
@@DerSpartaner its a battlefiled art not defensive
authentic Indian fighting style. i actually pick up some point here especially bout ranging. very mystical and from war era fighting style. informative bout cultural too. thumbs up!
The best think about this style is it will grow with the age of the practitioner as his experience grows. Unlike most other martial arts which require heavy physical strain, will become useless as the practitioner grows old, say 40yrs and above, and only thing he could do with its knowledge is train someone who is in that age group
He doesn't even say the fateh right
he's a fake Sikh,been exposed everywhere
hes one of the best masters ive seen

this wouldn't work in a real life situation I mean cmon.
It would work if you were good at it. It's very similar to the Russian art Systema, famously used by the KGB. They both look almost the same and very different from most modern martial arts systems... and they're both great, if you're good enough to make them work. Same as Tai Chi
they work against people that cant fight and dont really know what they are doing - if this stuff worked in real fights it would be used in UFC and MMA etc - it isnt because it doesnt work if your opponent can fight.

How long do think a MMA fighter would last against a warrior master of 18th century
Your idiot there not even in the same ball park

I think you mean "you're" an idiot, "your idiot" would be refering to an idiot that I own.
A professional modern MMA fighter would probably kick the shit out of an C18th master in an unarmed combat duel mate - because that is what modern MMA as seen in UFC etc is for. MMA has to be able to compete with anything someone could bring at them, there is a reason that UFC isnt dominated by these minor ethnic martial arts, if it worked then everyone would be doing it.
+hotsteamypudding 90% of MMA fighters would get BTFO by any lethal martial art techniques.
Very interesting system. Great demo and explanation. Thankyou for sharing.
Many of the kinetic concepts you describe are shared in aikido, as far as shifting of body weight and knowledge of distances and lengths of reach. I always find it interesting to encounter the universality of learned motions of the body across various martial arts. I wonder what the great minds of physics could have brought to the art of moving our bodies in relation to other bodies.
i think any strong rough neck with a few months boxing lessons controling is natural violence would hammer this guy within 30 seconds as they say its not the martial art that makes a man strong its the man himself so get back to the gym lift heavy weights run shadow box. left right low kick slap head butt foot mouvement rapidity and youre a beast and i know what i m talking about. sorry to offend certain people but even the master knows this.
The dude is almost 50 years old and kind of fat, so of course he'll get smashed by a huge guy. Just wait until his pupils get near or surpass his level of skill, they'll be able to walk all over this "strong rough neck"!! ;)
skill is nothing without speed and power everybody knows this.just look at the ufc guys anyway i don't wanna offend anyone so best of luck with youre training.
David Foulds Hey sup my friend, well im a heavyweight amateur boxer and been boxing since 11, 51 year old 2mrw still going strong and can say that more than skill, muscles and speed you fail to mention courage and heart, the amount of times i have seen supposedly fast handed skilled fighters lose and forget all their skill when faced with someone they can sense will go all the way! I mean a fight is sometimes lost before it begins! Such is the case with tysons early fights, the intent was known from the start, and the fight lost mentally beforehand. You see a guy like this, 50's been through it life, he dont just dont give a F*** and the intention would be to kill and end not just beat. The skills being taught are by a 50+ guy demonstrating in slow motion. It is highly unlikely a younger figher would be slow. Ageism i hate it.
continued from above, from one Aztec Warrior to another Sikh Warrior. Peace and keep up the good videos. Viva LA RAZA!
Dude, you've got it backwards: without skill speed and power are useless. You even implicitly said skill matters by saying after a little bit of training.
People who say this is BS, should see Spider fighting style. He is always very relaxed because it increases his range of movements, as he is not locked in a particular stance. The perries demonstraded here are also common in many MAs such as Jiu Jitsu. Also, the sword instance is very common when you need to engage using a bayonette or long range weapons, which is very different from knife attacks or short gun attacks. Great stuff. People who say this is BS, is full of it.
After having some time to view some of the video clips from this art it is apparent to me that the instructor knows exactly what he is talking about insofar as weapons, various ranges in fighting for survival and self preservation. I've trained in many martial arts and found that in close combat/weapons based are most devastating, The Guru in these video clips discusses misalignment, in the art that I trained in and taught, the only thing that changes are the explanation of the various ranges. D
Very very inspiring Indian shastra vidya.pl continue ser
Thank you for this fascinating glimpse into your martial culture. I've learned once again that I don't know what I don't know!
Thank you for sharing this. Very informative. The part about not over-extending the knee when moving forward, etc, made perfect sense. Simple, yet effective. A real shame you say this is dying out. Thanks again.
What a brilliant assistant!
This was beautiful and enlightening to watch. Thank you for sharing it.
Great stuff, thanks! I'm studying the similarities between the higher martial arts, Indian arts are surely some of the oldest, I see many solid principles here.
Broo wtf the stance is straight up like a badass anime character
okay guys this is a MARTIAL ART CHANNEL not a channel about religion so guys who are talking about religion...QUIT IT!!!!
Liked the video very much. He's like Dan Inosanto with beard and humor, interestingly, certain aspects of the style he is teaching are similar to wing chun, kenpo, kali.
Awesome Video... dhanyavad guru ji...
I like the way his hands keep manifesting weapons.
at first I thought he was just letting the punches hit him but if you watch closely he is dodging them at the last possible second, effortlessly
the bracelet on his left arm is from a hammered sword blade the one on his right is a variation on the Tiger claw weapon used by the shinobi it is used for a forearm strike techniques
