Hey man something you missed about muay thai culture - the reason they wear the braided string/fabric around their arm is because it originated from when the thais had to go to war they would rip a piece of their mothers fabric from her clothing and wear it around their arm. Pretty cool imo.
What makes you think that a trained fighter or someone Who used to train in fighting sports or martial arts Will let you reach for their eyes, neck, balls? Makes me laugh
If you live in a safe country, martial arts are just not worth the effort. Criminals don't what you death (in that case you will get shot like that martial expert for Indiana Jones 😂) they just want your money. So the best way to go is to give them the money and safe your life. Plus it is really hard to protect yourself from something like a knife attack.
for one term of school, we got a different performing arts teacher who got us to do capoeira. on the final lesson, we got into pairs and each did a routine while she recorded it so it could be added to an 'end of the year' dvd which everyone got. one kid got kicked in the face and went straight down. teacher kept recording it for like a good ten seconds after. we never heard from her again
Just so everyone knows, illegal moves are illegal because they typically lead to serious, permanent injuries, not because the fighters dont know how to deal with them.
these aren't mutually exclusive. Sometimes the reason why a move is dangerous is because a fighter doesn't know how to deal with them. For example. If you haven't trained and practiced in break falling even the simplest Judo or Aikido throw can cause serious injury. If you haven't practiced blocking kicks, not only are you vulnerable to kicks, but the mere possibility of a kick completely throws off your fighting. Punches to the face or head can be dangerous too, but if you haven't been in trained, practiced, and used to defending against punches to the face/head, it puts you at serious risk, even if you are trained and practiced at dealing with kicks to the face or head.
I think the reply here is a bit silly, since you're essentially just saying, "Every style can be lethal if you don't know how to deal with them." which is pretty obvious. I think what the original comment was getting at is both a mixture of 1) pride, rules, and 'fairness' isn't a think in a real fight, so you should never hesitate on using deadly or illegal moves. 2) Just because you commit to doing some 'illegal move' doesn't make you win or catch someone offguard. Often the target areas are places you instinctively try to protect, like your eyes, groin, or back of your head. Essentially it's something you should always keep in your arsenal in a real fight, but not get cocky with. The biggest benefit of illegal moves is how effective it is if it lands. Stabbing someone's eyes or kicking their groin might give you enough time to either run away while they're disoriented, or knock them out. There's no rules in a street fight, you're either fighting to survive or protect someone
Most people when they argue either side about this do it from an outside view and the surface logic that they can figure. With little instinct or experience on it. And conclusion bias to sway it the way they wish. They miss small details that matter. Instinct, muscle memory, and reflex speed are all three very important when it comes to this. Not just one or two. And not merely kind of important. Very. It is mostly how it affects timing. And it doesn't come down to if someone can deal with an attack if they're not used to it eventually. It comes down to if they can deal with it in the split second that it happens. Things can happen very very fast. With those three things if someone doesn't train for them it doesn't matter if they're a good martial arts and it's a place they naturally would want to protect. If they are not used to thinking of it and practicing it as something they protect or attack then it is too unnatural and slow of instinct to protect on time. Every fraction of a second matters. The attacks can happen in a flash. Not only protection when attacked but also being sure that it is safe when attacking. For example you take a UFC style MMA fighter that is used to those rules trying to take out the legs of an opponent. If they think they can catch them without them sprawling then they may go in for it even if it against someone that focuses more on practical street fighting. What you may get is the defender instead of trying to sprawl straight up lands an elbow on the spine of the person going in. This is not just a theory. I've seen it happen several times. I can think of a recorded example. Watch The fight quest episode of kajukenbo for example. One of the hosts with a UFC style mixed martial art goes in for this on one of the practitioners with a grapple against his legs. And gets an elbow to his back. It ended it quick and easy. I can think of dozens of examples easily that I have seen before where someone who trains one way is completely unready to actually defend against an attack or target they have not trained for. At least on time. Avoiding more logical fallacies. This doesn't mean go to the extremes and think that someone cannot at all defend against something they haven't trained for at all. I'm not saying that either. I'm talking likelihoods and increasing and decreasing chances of success. I'm only saying the more dynamic and thorough your training is focused on practicality the more likely you will be able to handle situations you haven't trained specifically for in the fraction of a moment they happen. That's why martial arts that are competitive and limit things on rules and targets will always be behind martial arts that do not when it comes to improvising offense and defense in a more dangerous and non-competitive situation. No one should expect to go into a competitive martial arts full of rules that do not practice illegal moves and be able to take down someone that may have as much natural skill and as much practice on one that focuses more on anything goes. given that they're both as efficient at what they are focusing on. same as true the other way around. you just have to ask yourself if competition or defending yourself in a real situation is more important to you based on interest. whether it be recreation or protection while considering likelihoods and your preference on preparing accordingly with those odds in mind.
As a taekwondo instructor, Taekwondo doesn't usually consist of kicks, that is a misconception. There are many blocks, punches, strikes, hand techniques, and even grapling and throwing techniques in traditional taekwondo.
As a brazilian jiujitsu practitioner, fights in BJJ don't start on the ground. In training you usually start there, but only because it's safer. In competition, you always start standing up.
Some other martial arts you could add: 1. Sanda 2. Hapkido 3. Teukgong Moosool 4. Kendo 5. Sunmudo 6. Kajukenbo 7. Jeet Kune Do 8. Gyeok Sul 9. Pankration 10. Ninjutsu Just thought that these would be some interesting ones to cover.
I've been practicing Shotokan Karate from a young age and this video really helps solidify what makes combat sports so interesting and fun to practice/watch. Thanks for the video!
Hello! I'm a Silat student who practised Silat Gayong. We have multiple types of Silat, but the most known is Pencak Silat and Silat Gayong. To pronounce "Silat," it's pronounced Sea-Lat. Not only do we learn movements in fluid form, but we learn the best way to kill in the quickest way possible and also learn how to disarm your opponent with little harm to you. I am honoured that you included my martial art in this video, as always. Stay strong everybody ❤
Since you're a practitioner of Silat Gayong (which I do believe is one of the oldest forms of Silat) how much of the info below that I've gathered up on the multiple different types of Silat is correct? Ever since hearing about it I can't stop researching everything about it 😃 _Different types of Silat:_ 1. *Pencak Silat (Indonesia)* - *Pencak* refers to the art of performance, emphasizing the aesthetic aspect, while *Silat* refers to the application of the techniques in self-defense. - Different styles or *aliran* can be found across the Indonesian archipelago, each with its own unique movements, philosophy, and techniques, such as: - *Silat Cimande* (West Java): Focuses on fluid, circular motions and powerful strikes. - *Silat Harimau* (Sumatra): Known for its ground-fighting techniques and animal-like movements, mimicking tigers. - *Silat Betawi* (Jakarta): Urban style with a mix of defensive and offensive techniques. - *Silat Merpati Putih* : Focuses on inner power (chi) and breathing techniques. - *Silat Silek Minangkabau* : From West Sumatra, emphasizes close combat and trapping. 2. *Silat Melayu (Malaysia)* - *Silat Gayong* : One of the oldest and most well-known Malaysian styles. It involves both hand-to-hand combat and weapons training, including kris (dagger), parang (machete), and spear. - *Silat Cekak* : Focuses on defense without retreating and is effective in close-range combat. - *Silat Lincah* : Emphasizes agility, rapid movements, and acrobatic techniques. - *Silat Kalimah* : Combines Islamic spiritual teachings with fighting techniques. - *Silat Terlak* : Focuses on striking and evasion, known for its simple yet effective techniques. 3. *Silat Minangkabau (West Sumatra)* - *Silek Harimau* : Often associated with the Minangkabau people, it uses low stances, joint locks, and sweeping movements to defeat opponents. This style mimics the movements of a tiger. 4. *Silat Pattani (Southern Thailand)* - This style has strong influences from the Malay world and emphasizes movements similar to Silat Melayu. It is known for its fluid, flowing movements that combine strikes, locks, and throws. 5. *Silat Brunei* - A style influenced by Silat Melayu and local Bruneian culture, focusing on both empty-hand techniques and weapon training. It is generally more defensive and incorporates traditional weapons like the keris and parang. 6. *Silat Maphilindo (Modern hybrid)* - Developed by Filipino martial arts expert Dan Inosanto, this style integrates techniques from Silat with Filipino martial arts (Kali/Arnis/Eskrima) and Jeet Kune Do. It’s a contemporary approach that merges various Southeast Asian fighting systems. 7. *Silat Kuntau* - Found in parts of Borneo (Kalimantan and Sarawak), this style has a close connection to the indigenous Dayak people and Chinese martial arts. It features rapid, flowing strikes, trapping, and weapon techniques. 8. *Silat Seni Gayong Fatani* - A Malaysian style emphasizing fluidity and speed. The "Seni" in the name refers to the art form and discipline, including dance-like movements that teach balance, coordination, and strikes. 9. *Silat Panglipur* - Originating in Indonesia, it combines elements of the Harimau and Cimande styles. It focuses on self-defense, emphasizing inner strength and the use of both low and high stances. 10. *Silat Bukti Negara* - A modern martial art developed by Pendekar Paul de Thouars in the United States. It is derived from the Indonesian art of Pentjak Silat and adapted to be more practical for modern self-defense situations. 11. *Silat Sunda (West Java)* - Emphasizes rapid and aggressive movements. Practitioners of this style use their whole body as a weapon, with an emphasis on striking techniques. 12. *Silat Penjurit Kepetangan (Java)* - A Javanese style that focuses on the use of swords, knives, and traditional weaponry. It incorporates both weapon-based and hand-to-hand techniques. 13. *Silat Tuo* - An ancient and traditional form of Silat practiced mainly in the highlands of West Sumatra, emphasizing self-defence and spiritual development. _Common Elements Across Silat Types:_ - *Langkah* (Footwork): Silat relies heavily on footwork to evade attacks and gain the upper hand. - *Kuda-kuda* (Stances): Different stances for defensive and offensive moves. - *Serangan* (Strikes): Includes punches, kicks, elbows, and knees. - *Kuncian* (Locks): Grappling techniques to immobilize opponents. - *Sambut* (Defense): Counters and parries used to neutralize attacks. - *Weapons* : Traditional weapons such as *keris* (dagger), *parang* (machete), *tongkat* (staff), and *spear* are often incorporated into Silat training.
@@gardil5868 those MA rely on strike, whilist what he meant by kill the quickest way possible probably mean a quick successive and decisive move where it gave the attacker an exploit for kill strike (either with fatal weapon strike or disabling the target). While kickboxing and muay thai just knocks ppl out as a disabling strike, then go for confirmed kill.

Hello dear RUclipsr, thank you for this video. I live with Ju Jitsu for 28 years now and I will use this video to summarise to the unending list of curious people that every week asks me what is the difference between my art and the others thousands. I also love the fact that even if this is a not pretentious video you also take the time to list a great range of martial art disciplines. In every one of these we can spend HOURS of talking styles and techniques but you arrive at the core principles in just a few words and I deeply appreciated that. Grazie mille ❤️
As someone who studied a lot of different martial arts (including western fencing and becoming an instructor & competitive saber fencer), this was a pretty good breakdown of martial arts. Well done! 🙂
I made it to the red degree!! Cheers from Mexico !! Savate is underrated but god damn, it’s so good and amazing. Combine that with Muay Thai, you’re deadly. That’s what I did
U missed out on Indian Martial arts -> Kalaripayatthu One of the oldest martial arts but sadly declined in popularity in India during the British Raj. however now it’s slowly gaining popularity once again and I’m rlly looking forward to see someone give it the recognition it deserves it’s a super cool martial art and was made for warriors in Ancient India now it’s partly similar to wushu as in being performance purposes due to the heavy usage of weapons which can seriously pose a threat to one’s safety Also FOR GOD’S SAKE IT HAS A WHIP SWORD ITS SO DAMN COOL
UFC popularized MMA worldwide, but it had already been going on in Brazil long before with the "Tudo Vale" competitions. UFC was just a tamer version more appropriate for wider audiences and regulators.
No, "Vale Tudo" is not MMA. MMA fighters actually mix, match and combine different arts into a single personal style. In Vale Tudo, fighters didn't mix different arts, they just used their single art against fighters of a different art, but they didn't mix them.
There are two styles of Taekwondo: WT: The more popular and well known style that is showcased in the Olympics and mainly focuses on fast kicking combinations and only allowing punches to the torso. ITF: The original and more traditional style that is not as well known as its more modern counterpart. ITF focuses on fast and effective punching and kicking combinations and has a rule set similar to kickboxing, only excluding kicks below the belt but has elbows and knees in its forms
It hits a nerve every time someone says tae kwon do is all about kicking. Kwon translates to punching techniques. It's the way of fist and foot. The defining characteristic of tae kwon do should be the spinning used to generate power, not only with wheel kicks and tornado kicks, but also spinning backfists. The forms even have spinning blocks.
You forgot Jeet Kune Do, it has a fighting philosophy and a very adaptive but simplistic principal. Adapt what is useful, Reject what is useless and add what is specifically your own.
Just a heads up for the content creator: on 0:08, those are not karate styles, they are different types o punches. Tsuki is a denomination for "Punch" or any thrusting move really, whereas the other names are the variations, for example Gyaku refers to any move that would be executed using the opposite upperbody motion related to the front leg on your stance, so Gyaku tsuki is a frontal punch that uses your right arm when your left leg is in forward position in your stance and vice versa. Yon is the opposite of gyaku, so Yon Tsuki would be a frontal punch using your right arm when the same leg is in forward position and vice versa. Karate styles would be Kyokushin Karate or the style that I grew up in, Traditional Shotokan Karate. With all due respect, great video! Keep up the good work.
@@Tacoimp-tj7rz Jeet Kune Do is more similar to Savate and fencing than it is to Wing Chun. Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do is fencing strategy using Savate Kicks and Wing Chun countering techniques.

I really liked this video i myself am a BJJ competitive fighter and self defense practitioner. And i loved how you described the martial arts short, sweet, and to the point.
I do a kind of karate called “taido”. It was made in Okinawa and is apparently similar to copeira (sorry for spelling mistakes) it’s pretty cool, look it up!
It’s not in the realm of being known on a wide scale like Asian martial arts. It’ll take generations for that. I wish we had more martial arts available, I for one would like to learn some African stuff but there’s only a handful of people teaching it. Indigenous martial arts would be cool to learn too, including Pacific Islanders.
Well I think the naming makes it a bit confusing. Since the video talks about martial arts that put focus on hand-to-hand combat, or atleast have a substantial part focusing on it, and HEMA is a primarily weapons-based system with very little unarmed content. In that sense, things like Wushu are very much treading that line drawn. So yea, its a bit all over the place. But if HEMA were included, then we might aswell include things like Fencing and Kendo. But that could make for a good separate video.
Kind ironic to do a video on martial arts, the "arts of war", and focus on hand to hand, which accounts for like 2% of actual warfare. They are more prominent because they are more relatable to us peasants. But back in medieval time, "martial art" meant archery, horse riding, sword fighting, and later on, gun shooting.
As a karate practitioner, I feel ya brotha. However, it seems that this video is primarily based on empty handed combat or things evolved from them. HEMA is awesome though.
something everyone usually forgets that muay thai does is grappling (not entirely), its called the clinch and we learn to dump, sweep, trip and use elbows and knees due to the close contact. we learn the same grip as many other grappling sports do such as the double collar tie
@@daffamustafa idk man 1:1.5 civilians to armed soldiers casualties ratio seems pretty good in general and especially in an urban warfare with so many tunnels and weapons in every street and civilians being on the front line. yall don't gaf when its arabs vs arabs, only when israel fights it doesnt allowed to do what every army ever have done
FYI : 10:53 The way to pronounce Joseon(조선) is not 'Ho-Seh-un', but 'Jo-sun'. the way you pronounce its kinda Mexican style and it made me smile 😀. thx again to introduce all the interesting martial arts in the world.
Thanks for mentioning sambo! I wanna tell you fun fact about it. In Russian «sambo» is an acronym which means "self-defense without weapons" Sam - САМозащита (self-defence) B - Без (without) O - Оружия (weapons) Best street fight is one which haven't happened. Improve your situation awareness and take care guys 🙏
12:18 12 to 6 elbows recently became legal in the ufc ruleset (and were already legal in most other mma promotions). The only reason they were ever part of the rules was that one of the doctors asked to advise on the development of a ruleset for the ufc refused to approve any ruleset that included them, as he had seen karate demonstrations where 12 to 6 elbows could break through bricks (ignoring that the same feats would be shown with kicks, punches and even open hand techniques)
aikido only does that though, it doesn't bite, eye gouge, punch, or kick. It's like flowing water, it goes around you, not through you. Unlike Hapkido, that will go around you, and kick you in the anus, while breaking your arm for daring to throw a punch.
I blame it on kung fu snobbery. Not sure what exactly it comes from, but something about CMAs lends practitioners to being really bad at interacting with different schools and people who want to learn more. Go look at some videos by influencers like Sensei Seth or Rokas and everybody is typing treatises explaining why these arts are more than what they seem. Everyone says different things, people argue, and the outsiders are probably scratching their heads and walking away.
@@tonbonthemon So true. Same goes for Wing Chun. Almost everyone says it is the most effective martial art as if there were no other effective martial arts. 🤔
Kung Fu is a general term meaning skill at master level in any arts. The real generalization of Chinese Martial Arts is Wushu (but some has defined it as performance arts, without any sparring). Just like Shaolin Kung Fu has hundreds of different type of martial arts that even none of the Shaolin warriors can master all of them. That's my opinion, though, as I had not learn from any Shaolin Master.
Hap Ki Do, Kendo, Jeet Kune Do, Ninjutsu, Iaido, Naginatado, Krabi Krabong, Kalaripayattu, HEMA, Vale Tudo, Sumo, MCMAP and fencing are just a few that I could think of off the top of my head right now that you missed, not to mention the accuracy of your descriptions is at times questionable.
good collection of martial arts, just to add a few more In India we have a version of all of the above mentioned martial arts, you can make an entire list just like this, a humble video suggestion
Proper street fighting has also ways. If you watch people with experience, you will see that they are not fighting random. It includes: 1. Heel kicks 2. Grapling the opponents kick 3. Grapling the opponents head and pulling it 4. Tripping opponent (this is kind of judo) 5. Pushing the opponent with open hands 6. Knee kicks It's a constant pushing and trying to grab cycle until you can find a deadly opening.
Street Fighting sounds rather like something when people don't follow a traditional style. So it's basically not a style. And pushing doesn't quite sound very effective, to be honest.
@Warin29-mh4tr I know, I tried it back in the early 90s, same with rolling a glass bottle up and down your shins. Dude, just luck the bag, you get to practice your technique, and you condition your shins.
If I may, from my understanding, the centerline in wing chun is a vertical line in the center of the opponent. It is an imaginary pole that your forward intent and strikes are directed at. The line between you and the opponent is the line of attack or " the bridge." I'm no master, of course, so I could be wrong about that.
ay, can i add one more from Hawaii? we had our martial art called Lua, which was used and taught to our warriors who fought to protect their moku (district) from other chiefs. It mostly focused on bone breaking, pressure points, throws, and striking. They were taught to use these for when they had no more weapons at their disposal, and as such, it’s supposed to disable and kill rather than knock out. It’s also very interesting with its similarity in movement to hula, which has stayed very popular obviously, and many practitioners today also practice hula.
4:16 the oldest forms of kung fu, Shaolin Kung Fu, and the Shaolin Temple itself, owe their origins to two Indian monks. Or so it is believed. It is said that around 1,500 years ago, a dhyana master hailing from northern India, Buddhabhadra, travelled to China to preach Buddhism. The Chinese called him 'Batuo' and the ruling Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty (386 to 534 CE ) built a monastery to host this teacher. This monastery was the Shaolin Temple, built in 495 CE in the jungles atop Mt Song in China's Henan Province. Thus, Batuo was the first abbot of Shaolin.
Tai chi chaun is one of the most deadly martial arts, made for war, and while most use the more yoga based tai chi, even then it still has strikes and locks based from its origins
@@xmariokiler2443the MMA vs "Tai Chi Master" video circulating is often misrepresented. The MMA fighter was not trying to expose Martial Arts with no real world application it was exposing people pretending to be masters of some art. The MMA guy was literally slapping around a dude who would have been premiered on McDojo life. If you think Wing Chun has real world application you should understand the Tai Chi is a sister form along with Ba Gua ( found in the Jet Li movie The One 2001 used by the "good" Jet Li) (Edit) One last addition Okinawan style Karate has it origins in part, from Tai Chi.
@@llawliet3733 Almost. They use a double KO system in Lethwei. You get five minutes to recover from a knockout. Then you can step in the ring and get even more head trauma.
I'll point out that jiujitsu also allows strikes. It would be more so like a combination of karate and judo with various limb controls (which used to be called ''breaks'', as the main use of this techniques were not to control the adversary, but to break his limbs, which was changed with the sportification of the art)

Jeet Kune Do falls under the MMA umbrella nowadays, it was more of a philosophy rather than a specific set of techniques. Also I've never heard of a regulating official body for Jeet Kune Do competitions etc.
I got one to mention. Okichitaw: A martial arts that take inspiration of combat techniques from the Plains Cree in Manitoba. I also combine techniques from Judo and taekwondo, which are martial arts that George Lépine practices. It combines striking, grappling and weapon uses such as the knife or the tomahawk. It is also effective for self-defence.
ive been doing krav maga for almost 10 years and im 18, krav maga splits in two, one is the civil krav maga, and the military one, its quite simple, in civil when the aggressor has a knive, you make him either drop the knive and run away fast as possible. The military way, you pick the knive and stab him 20 times. Civil Krav maga mainly teaches that you are far from ready and that you should fight in absolute last resort.

Scotland has its own martial art. It's called "Fuk-Yu". It's mostly just headbutts and kicking the guy when he's on the ground.
The training consists of the consumption of large quantities of alcoholic beverages before each fight

It also has an armed combat branch that employs broken bottles and bar stools from what I heard.

for one term of school, we got a different performing arts teacher who got us to do capoeira. on the final lesson, we got into pairs and each did a routine while she recorded it so it could be added to an 'end of the year' dvd which everyone got. one kid got kicked in the face and went straight down. teacher kept recording it for like a good ten seconds after. we never heard from her again
Epic teacher honestly.
you never heard from the teacher or the downed student?
Wait, was there an ulterior motive?

Just so everyone knows, illegal moves are illegal because they typically lead to serious, permanent injuries, not because the fighters dont know how to deal with them.
these aren't mutually exclusive. Sometimes the reason why a move is dangerous is because a fighter doesn't know how to deal with them. For example. If you haven't trained and practiced in break falling even the simplest Judo or Aikido throw can cause serious injury. If you haven't practiced blocking kicks, not only are you vulnerable to kicks, but the mere possibility of a kick completely throws off your fighting. Punches to the face or head can be dangerous too, but if you haven't been in trained, practiced, and used to defending against punches to the face/head, it puts you at serious risk, even if you are trained and practiced at dealing with kicks to the face or head.
I think the reply here is a bit silly, since you're essentially just saying, "Every style can be lethal if you don't know how to deal with them." which is pretty obvious.
I think what the original comment was getting at is both a mixture of
1) pride, rules, and 'fairness' isn't a think in a real fight, so you should never hesitate on using deadly or illegal moves.
2) Just because you commit to doing some 'illegal move' doesn't make you win or catch someone offguard. Often the target areas are places you instinctively try to protect, like your eyes, groin, or back of your head.
Essentially it's something you should always keep in your arsenal in a real fight, but not get cocky with. The biggest benefit of illegal moves is how effective it is if it lands. Stabbing someone's eyes or kicking their groin might give you enough time to either run away while they're disoriented, or knock them out.
There's no rules in a street fight, you're either fighting to survive or protect someone
@@Sir-Reborn restated wonderfully. Thank you for correcting that guy in a way I was too lazy to do lol
Most people when they argue either side about this do it from an outside view and the surface logic that they can figure. With little instinct or experience on it. And conclusion bias to sway it the way they wish. They miss small details that matter.
Instinct, muscle memory, and reflex speed are all three very important when it comes to this. Not just one or two. And not merely kind of important. Very. It is mostly how it affects timing. And it doesn't come down to if someone can deal with an attack if they're not used to it eventually. It comes down to if they can deal with it in the split second that it happens. Things can happen very very fast.
With those three things if someone doesn't train for them it doesn't matter if they're a good martial arts and it's a place they naturally would want to protect. If they are not used to thinking of it and practicing it as something they protect or attack then it is too unnatural and slow of instinct to protect on time. Every fraction of a second matters. The attacks can happen in a flash. Not only protection when attacked but also being sure that it is safe when attacking.
For example you take a UFC style MMA fighter that is used to those rules trying to take out the legs of an opponent. If they think they can catch them without them sprawling then they may go in for it even if it against someone that focuses more on practical street fighting. What you may get is the defender instead of trying to sprawl straight up lands an elbow on the spine of the person going in. This is not just a theory. I've seen it happen several times. I can think of a recorded example.
Watch The fight quest episode of kajukenbo for example. One of the hosts with a UFC style mixed martial art goes in for this on one of the practitioners with a grapple against his legs. And gets an elbow to his back. It ended it quick and easy.
I can think of dozens of examples easily that I have seen before where someone who trains one way is completely unready to actually defend against an attack or target they have not trained for. At least on time.
Avoiding more logical fallacies. This doesn't mean go to the extremes and think that someone cannot at all defend against something they haven't trained for at all. I'm not saying that either. I'm talking likelihoods and increasing and decreasing chances of success. I'm only saying the more dynamic and thorough your training is focused on practicality the more likely you will be able to handle situations you haven't trained specifically for in the fraction of a moment they happen. That's why martial arts that are competitive and limit things on rules and targets will always be behind martial arts that do not when it comes to improvising offense and defense in a more dangerous and non-competitive situation.
No one should expect to go into a competitive martial arts full of rules that do not practice illegal moves and be able to take down someone that may have as much natural skill and as much practice on one that focuses more on anything goes. given that they're both as efficient at what they are focusing on. same as true the other way around. you just have to ask yourself if competition or defending yourself in a real situation is more important to you based on interest. whether it be recreation or protection while considering likelihoods and your preference on preparing accordingly with those odds in mind.

As a taekwondo instructor, Taekwondo doesn't usually consist of kicks, that is a misconception.
There are many blocks, punches, strikes, hand techniques, and even grapling and throwing techniques in traditional taekwondo.
taekwondo specialises mainly on kicks and is more commonly used in taekwondo but yes taekwondo does include a lot of striking and blocking
Can you instruct me too?
Good call, everyone confuses traditional Tae Kwon Do with Olympic TKD.
and many many kicks.
It focuses on kicking and hands for backup I think
As a brazilian jiujitsu practitioner, fights in BJJ don't start on the ground. In training you usually start there, but only because it's safer. In competition, you always start standing up.

Hello! I'm a Silat student who practised Silat Gayong. We have multiple types of Silat, but the most known is Pencak Silat and Silat Gayong. To pronounce "Silat," it's pronounced Sea-Lat. Not only do we learn movements in fluid form, but we learn the best way to kill in the quickest way possible and also learn how to disarm your opponent with little harm to you.
I am honoured that you included my martial art in this video, as always. Stay strong everybody ❤
Since you're a practitioner of Silat Gayong (which I do believe is one of the oldest forms of Silat) how much of the info below that I've gathered up on the multiple different types of Silat is correct? Ever since hearing about it I can't stop researching everything about it 😃
_Different types of Silat:_
1. *Pencak Silat (Indonesia)*
- *Pencak* refers to the art of performance, emphasizing the aesthetic aspect, while *Silat* refers to the application of the techniques in self-defense.
- Different styles or *aliran* can be found across the Indonesian archipelago, each with its own unique movements, philosophy, and techniques, such as:
- *Silat Cimande* (West Java): Focuses on fluid, circular motions and powerful strikes.
- *Silat Harimau* (Sumatra): Known for its ground-fighting techniques and animal-like movements, mimicking tigers.
- *Silat Betawi* (Jakarta): Urban style with a mix of defensive and offensive techniques.
- *Silat Merpati Putih* : Focuses on inner power (chi) and breathing techniques.
- *Silat Silek Minangkabau* : From West Sumatra, emphasizes close combat and trapping.
2. *Silat Melayu (Malaysia)*
- *Silat Gayong* : One of the oldest and most well-known Malaysian styles. It involves both hand-to-hand combat and weapons training, including kris (dagger), parang (machete), and spear.
- *Silat Cekak* : Focuses on defense without retreating and is effective in close-range combat.
- *Silat Lincah* : Emphasizes agility, rapid movements, and acrobatic techniques.
- *Silat Kalimah* : Combines Islamic spiritual teachings with fighting techniques.
- *Silat Terlak* : Focuses on striking and evasion, known for its simple yet effective techniques.
3. *Silat Minangkabau (West Sumatra)*
- *Silek Harimau* : Often associated with the Minangkabau people, it uses low stances, joint locks, and sweeping movements to defeat opponents. This style mimics the movements of a tiger.
4. *Silat Pattani (Southern Thailand)*
- This style has strong influences from the Malay world and emphasizes movements similar to Silat Melayu. It is known for its fluid, flowing movements that combine strikes, locks, and throws.
5. *Silat Brunei*
- A style influenced by Silat Melayu and local Bruneian culture, focusing on both empty-hand techniques and weapon training. It is generally more defensive and incorporates traditional weapons like the keris and parang.
6. *Silat Maphilindo (Modern hybrid)*
- Developed by Filipino martial arts expert Dan Inosanto, this style integrates techniques from Silat with Filipino martial arts (Kali/Arnis/Eskrima) and Jeet Kune Do. It’s a contemporary approach that merges various Southeast Asian fighting systems.
7. *Silat Kuntau*
- Found in parts of Borneo (Kalimantan and Sarawak), this style has a close connection to the indigenous Dayak people and Chinese martial arts. It features rapid, flowing strikes, trapping, and weapon techniques.
8. *Silat Seni Gayong Fatani*
- A Malaysian style emphasizing fluidity and speed. The "Seni" in the name refers to the art form and discipline, including dance-like movements that teach balance, coordination, and strikes.
9. *Silat Panglipur*
- Originating in Indonesia, it combines elements of the Harimau and Cimande styles. It focuses on self-defense, emphasizing inner strength and the use of both low and high stances.
10. *Silat Bukti Negara*
- A modern martial art developed by Pendekar Paul de Thouars in the United States. It is derived from the Indonesian art of Pentjak Silat and adapted to be more practical for modern self-defense situations.
11. *Silat Sunda (West Java)*
- Emphasizes rapid and aggressive movements. Practitioners of this style use their whole body as a weapon, with an emphasis on striking techniques.
12. *Silat Penjurit Kepetangan (Java)*
- A Javanese style that focuses on the use of swords, knives, and traditional weaponry. It incorporates both weapon-based and hand-to-hand techniques.
13. *Silat Tuo*
- An ancient and traditional form of Silat practiced mainly in the highlands of West Sumatra, emphasizing self-defence and spiritual development.
_Common Elements Across Silat Types:_
- *Langkah* (Footwork): Silat relies heavily on footwork to evade attacks and gain the upper hand.
- *Kuda-kuda* (Stances): Different stances for defensive and offensive moves.
- *Serangan* (Strikes): Includes punches, kicks, elbows, and knees.
- *Kuncian* (Locks): Grappling techniques to immobilize opponents.
- *Sambut* (Defense): Counters and parries used to neutralize attacks.
- *Weapons* : Traditional weapons such as *keris* (dagger), *parang* (machete), *tongkat* (staff), and *spear* are often incorporated into Silat training.
Best way to kill? Kickboxing and muay thai is far better in that

Hello dear RUclipsr, thank you for this video. I live with Ju Jitsu for 28 years now and I will use this video to summarise to the unending list of curious people that every week asks me what is the difference between my art and the others thousands.
I also love the fact that even if this is a not pretentious video you also take the time to list a great range of martial art disciplines.
In every one of these we can spend HOURS of talking styles and techniques but you arrive at the core principles in just a few words and I deeply appreciated that.
Grazie mille ❤️
Very good comprehensive presentation. I see there were some critical comments but I appreciate the scope and objectiveness of your video.

UFC popularized MMA worldwide, but it had already been going on in Brazil long before with the "Tudo Vale" competitions. UFC was just a tamer version more appropriate for wider audiences and regulators.
Jesus. I remember that one guy who competed as a Sumo fighter in an early UFC event. Unfortunately, he didn't fight for long. But it was fun.
No, "Vale Tudo" is not MMA. MMA fighters actually mix, match and combine different arts into a single personal style. In Vale Tudo, fighters didn't mix different arts, they just used their single art against fighters of a different art, but they didn't mix them.

There are two styles of Taekwondo:
WT: The more popular and well known style that is showcased in the Olympics and mainly focuses on fast kicking combinations and only allowing punches to the torso.
ITF: The original and more traditional style that is not as well known as its more modern counterpart. ITF focuses on fast and effective punching and kicking combinations and has a rule set similar to kickboxing, only excluding kicks below the belt but has elbows and knees in its forms
Three, ATA, which branched off of ITF in the 60's with a total restructuring of forms.
It hits a nerve every time someone says tae kwon do is all about kicking. Kwon translates to punching techniques. It's the way of fist and foot.
The defining characteristic of tae kwon do should be the spinning used to generate power, not only with wheel kicks and tornado kicks, but also spinning backfists. The forms even have spinning blocks.
You forgot Jeet Kune Do, it has a fighting philosophy and a very adaptive but simplistic principal. Adapt what is useful, Reject what is useless and add what is specifically your own.
Just a heads up for the content creator: on 0:08, those are not karate styles, they are different types o punches. Tsuki is a denomination for "Punch" or any thrusting move really, whereas the other names are the variations, for example Gyaku refers to any move that would be executed using the opposite upperbody motion related to the front leg on your stance, so Gyaku tsuki is a frontal punch that uses your right arm when your left leg is in forward position in your stance and vice versa. Yon is the opposite of gyaku, so Yon Tsuki would be a frontal punch using your right arm when the same leg is in forward position and vice versa. Karate styles would be Kyokushin Karate or the style that I grew up in, Traditional Shotokan Karate. With all due respect, great video! Keep up the good work.
I paused and looked for shobukan 😂. People seem to ignore the variation of styles in karate, but are very quick to call taekwondo karate.
Hap Ki Do, the one thing that's not on here, is literally the only one I was ever exposed to.
There also tang soo do, kinda like taekwondo but with more focus on punches

@@aaronjones3053TKD has hand techniques, throws etc. too. When people think TKD they think the Olympic version which is kicks only.

Karate gets two entries. HEMA is completely absent. Sad face. :(
It’s not in the realm of being known on a wide scale like Asian martial arts. It’ll take generations for that. I wish we had more martial arts available, I for one would like to learn some African stuff but there’s only a handful of people teaching it. Indigenous martial arts would be cool to learn too, including Pacific Islanders.
yup i was looking forward to some HEMA :(
Well I think the naming makes it a bit confusing. Since the video talks about martial arts that put focus on hand-to-hand combat, or atleast have a substantial part focusing on it, and HEMA is a primarily weapons-based system with very little unarmed content. In that sense, things like Wushu are very much treading that line drawn. So yea, its a bit all over the place.
But if HEMA were included, then we might aswell include things like Fencing and Kendo. But that could make for a good separate video.
Kind ironic to do a video on martial arts, the "arts of war", and focus on hand to hand, which accounts for like 2% of actual warfare.
They are more prominent because they are more relatable to us peasants. But back in medieval time, "martial art" meant archery, horse riding, sword fighting, and later on, gun shooting.
As a karate practitioner, I feel ya brotha.
However, it seems that this video is primarily based on empty handed combat or things evolved from them. HEMA is awesome though.
something everyone usually forgets that muay thai does is grappling (not entirely), its called the clinch and we learn to dump, sweep, trip and use elbows and knees due to the close contact. we learn the same grip as many other grappling sports do such as the double collar tie

There is a style recently developed called Bullshido.😂
Frank Dukes?
12:18 12 to 6 elbows recently became legal in the ufc ruleset (and were already legal in most other mma promotions). The only reason they were ever part of the rules was that one of the doctors asked to advise on the development of a ruleset for the ufc refused to approve any ruleset that included them, as he had seen karate demonstrations where 12 to 6 elbows could break through bricks (ignoring that the same feats would be shown with kicks, punches and even open hand techniques)
3:50 Unique for using the opponent's own strength and weight against them. Except for all the others you list that do that.
aikido only does that though, it doesn't bite, eye gouge, punch, or kick. It's like flowing water, it goes around you, not through you. Unlike Hapkido, that will go around you, and kick you in the anus, while breaking your arm for daring to throw a punch.

Kung-Fu is always so simplified that its many martial arts aren’t even mentioned. 😢
I blame it on kung fu snobbery. Not sure what exactly it comes from, but something about CMAs lends practitioners to being really bad at interacting with different schools and people who want to learn more. Go look at some videos by influencers like Sensei Seth or Rokas and everybody is typing treatises explaining why these arts are more than what they seem. Everyone says different things, people argue, and the outsiders are probably scratching their heads and walking away.
@@tonbonthemon So true. Same goes for Wing Chun. Almost everyone says it is the most effective martial art as if there were no other effective martial arts. 🤔
Kung Fu is a general term meaning skill at master level in any arts. The real generalization of Chinese Martial Arts is Wushu (but some has defined it as performance arts, without any sparring). Just like Shaolin Kung Fu has hundreds of different type of martial arts that even none of the Shaolin warriors can master all of them. That's my opinion, though, as I had not learn from any Shaolin Master.
Hap Ki Do, Kendo, Jeet Kune Do, Ninjutsu, Iaido, Naginatado, Krabi Krabong, Kalaripayattu, HEMA, Vale Tudo, Sumo, MCMAP and fencing are just a few that I could think of off the top of my head right now that you missed, not to mention the accuracy of your descriptions is at times questionable.

Hahaha great!
My man forgot Sumo 😢
Proper street fighting has also ways. If you watch people with experience, you will see that they are not fighting random. It includes:
1. Heel kicks
2. Grapling the opponents kick
3. Grapling the opponents head and pulling it
4. Tripping opponent (this is kind of judo)
5. Pushing the opponent with open hands
6. Knee kicks
It's a constant pushing and trying to grab cycle until you can find a deadly opening.
Street Fighting sounds rather like something when people don't follow a traditional style. So it's basically not a style.
And pushing doesn't quite sound very effective, to be honest.
Anyone whos ever got into a street fight knows spinning kicks and other extravagant moves are not worth it
1:45 don't do that, just kick the bag.
REAL, you can do this it's just simpler and less painful to repeatedly kick the bag, but yes this works.
@Warin29-mh4tr I know, I tried it back in the early 90s, same with rolling a glass bottle up and down your shins.
Dude, just luck the bag, you get to practice your technique, and you condition your shins.
@@bondsan yeah, I started Muay Thai a few years ago and that's the response I got when I asked
*kick the heavy bag
Bro forgot Jujutsu Sorcery
Lol
If I may, from my understanding, the centerline in wing chun is a vertical line in the center of the opponent. It is an imaginary pole that your forward intent and strikes are directed at. The line between you and the opponent is the line of attack or " the bridge." I'm no master, of course, so I could be wrong about that.
ay, can i add one more from Hawaii? we had our martial art called Lua, which was used and taught to our warriors who fought to protect their moku (district) from other chiefs. It mostly focused on bone breaking, pressure points, throws, and striking. They were taught to use these for when they had no more weapons at their disposal, and as such, it’s supposed to disable and kill rather than knock out. It’s also very interesting with its similarity in movement to hula, which has stayed very popular obviously, and many practitioners today also practice hula.
4:16 the oldest forms of kung fu, Shaolin Kung Fu, and the Shaolin Temple itself, owe their origins to two Indian monks. Or so it is believed.
It is said that around 1,500 years ago, a dhyana master hailing from northern India, Buddhabhadra, travelled to China to preach Buddhism. The Chinese called him 'Batuo' and the ruling Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty (386 to 534 CE ) built a monastery to host this teacher. This monastery was the Shaolin Temple, built in 495 CE in the jungles atop Mt Song in China's Henan Province. Thus, Batuo was the first abbot of Shaolin.
@5:15 Eddy Gordo has Joined the chat.😂
Eddy is the only reason I know what Capoeira is lol
Judo DOES NOT use BJJ principles lol. Wtf are you talking about!? Judo comes from Jujitsu not BJJ smh
It may be different
BJJ uses Judo principles. Leverage and using someone's weight against them
This guy has zero clue what he's talking about tbh.
He literally said, that Judo comes from Jiu Jitsu, while Brazilian Jiu Jitsu comes from Jiu Jitsu and Judo.
@Judah132 When speaking of judo he credited bjj for judo techs, when Japanese JJ, the og jj, is what gave judo its techs.
You forgot my favourite ninjitsu
3:49 This is disappointing. That family is the Gracie family. Why not be historically accurate and actually mention their name? Seems sketch.
Tai chi chaun is one of the most deadly martial arts, made for war, and while most use the more yoga based tai chi, even then it still has strikes and locks based from its origins

@@xmariokiler2443 china has some pretty awesome infrastructure tho.
@@Swantsfood You mean like an aushwitz wanna be?
@@xmariokiler2443the MMA vs "Tai Chi Master" video circulating is often misrepresented. The MMA fighter was not trying to expose Martial Arts with no real world application it was exposing people pretending to be masters of some art. The MMA guy was literally slapping around a dude who would have been premiered on McDojo life. If you think Wing Chun has real world application you should understand the Tai Chi is a sister form along with Ba Gua ( found in the Jet Li movie The One 2001 used by the "good" Jet Li)
(Edit) One last addition Okinawan style Karate has it origins in part, from Tai Chi.
7:10 Bro said Jiu Jutsu
That’s so weird- your comment popped up right when he said it

Kalari payattu and Kung-fu ❤❤❤
Can't believe bro forgot letwei💀
isnt Lethwei just Muay Thai with headbutts?
@@TGglixxAnd you do it Bareknuckle and traditionally the only outcomes were KO or Draw
@@llawliet3733 Almost. They use a double KO system in Lethwei. You get five minutes to recover from a knockout. Then you can step in the ring and get even more head trauma.
3:34 The gracie family! :D
yes, i practice it
yep they are great people! only my uncles met them though. i was too young to be around them as much as they were
Royce Gracie's 30-minute-long fight against a heavy guy was incredible. Watched it till the end.
I also met Rolles Gracie, super cool guy
I'll point out that jiujitsu also allows strikes. It would be more so like a combination of karate and judo with various limb controls (which used to be called ''breaks'', as the main use of this techniques were not to control the adversary, but to break his limbs, which was changed with the sportification of the art)
Explains judo aikido able to take down larger opponents. Immediately proceeds to call BJJ unique xD
(Judo black belt BJJ brown belt)
"judo uses BJJ's techniques." ummm.....
I mean BJJ is basically an offshoot of judo, ultimately its all grappling anyways.
Where Jeet Kun Do?
what's Jeet Kun do?
@@meciocio The martial art developed and taught by Bruce Lee. I was wondering why it was left off as well.
@@AgentParsec Bruce Lee is a fraud. My dad's former teacher challenged him to a fight because he started talking shit about other masters in the city and Lee ignored and started talking even more shit in the press.
Jeet Kune Do falls under the MMA umbrella nowadays, it was more of a philosophy rather than a specific set of techniques. Also I've never heard of a regulating official body for Jeet Kune Do competitions etc.
In the bin
I got one to mention. Okichitaw: A martial arts that take inspiration of combat techniques from the Plains Cree in Manitoba. I also combine techniques from Judo and taekwondo, which are martial arts that George Lépine practices. It combines striking, grappling and weapon uses such as the knife or the tomahawk. It is also effective for self-defence.
When I was younger I learned Krav Maga the only catch was because I was 9 they didn't tell us to bite and poke the eyes of our peers.
Average israeli guy
So, krav Maga is any martial art exept it dousent have rules?
@@Imortalpat66 yes, but its all taught the same way
@@diagnosing_kids ok
ive been doing krav maga for almost 10 years and im 18, krav maga splits in two, one is the civil krav maga, and the military one, its quite simple, in civil when the aggressor has a knive, you make him either drop the knive and run away fast as possible. The military way, you pick the knive and stab him 20 times. Civil Krav maga mainly teaches that you are far from ready and that you should fight in absolute last resort.
MMA technically isn’t a martial art but I’ll let it slide 🗿.
if Wrestling isn't a martial art then Tai Chi isn't
@@AxaFin well the reason I say wrestling isn’t a martial art, is because it’s not a studied form of martial arts, it’s used purely for sport
@@Blade_Sensei Explain what you mean studied form of martial arts
@@AxaFin taught in schools, I get there are wrestling schools, but… oh wait, I kinda take it back now
@@Blade_Sensei if wrestling isn't a martial art then mma is isn't mixed martial art it's mix of football, Rugby, basketball and baseball without the bat but the shin
"Jiu jutsu"
My dumb brain: Jujutsu Kaisen 💀
There is one martial art in China that people call it the mad dog punches. It includes all street fight moves, turning anything in to weapons, and it is so effective that it got kill records on the street before, sadly, it didn’t got wide spread deal to people taking it as a joke, as it is required to bark in a fight to taunt your enemy
This one sounds wild. I couldn't find it online though. Would you mind providing a link?
Sounds like some bullshido to me
Search 癲狗拳 and you can find it. Literally copy that Chinese I typed
In israel we also have "chair-fu" It was originated in "Bat Yam" and "Yamit 2000"

No Sumo?
Sumo falls under the banner of 'ritual combat' not 'martial art' I feel. Not to say it isn't very physical, it's just extremely restricted in scope.
And Taichi is more physical than summo? A sport in which people break their fingers and legs all the time? Under your own criteria Taichi shouldn't be in the list.
@@GrimmundusRex I dare you fight a Sumo fighter and tell then it's not physical.

Historical European Martial Arts -emphasis on sticks and swords -i.e: Fencing, Broadswords, Zwei-Handers, Claymores, Halberds, Staffs, etc. Used from the 13th through the 18th centuries; mostly lost to time, it is slowly being re-learned and re-built as manuscripts and fighting manuals from the period are being discovered all over central and northern Europe.
