Here are a few examples of the hard martial arts, which you are unlikely to teach.

It seems to hit people in the face of stiff enough to butcher from West Africa. They need more and are wrapped his legs in a toothed metal to accurately let a little blood. An interesting note: many of the modern dam trainees traveling from village to village before the fighting ritual smoke marijuana.

Bokator (Bokator)



Bokator - martial art originally from Cambodia, appeared during the armies of Angkor (Angkor), which were among the best on the battlefields of Indochina more than 1,700 years ago. Bokator translated as "beating a lion," and the name comes from an ancient legend which tells of a person engaged in Bokatorom, found themselves face to face with a man-eating lion. According to legend, the warrior killed the bloodthirsty animal is a blow directed knee.

From other martial arts Bokator distinguished cruelty and practical on the battlefield. Bokatore in the presence of 10 000 different techniques, such as elbows and knees, fixation of joints, rolls and much more - it is a deep and diverse art, providing endless opportunities to soldiers in combat.

Coups and throws



This martial art is actually more severe than it sounds. In fact, it should be called "maim and kill," as it is to this end, the combat system in the south of the United States in the 18th and 19th century. The term "gouging" is also used to describe this style of combat, due to the fact that one of the most common techniques were eye gouging, with this was no ordinary poke in the eye. Soldiers' coups and surges "have focused on the maximum disfigurement and unlimited cruelty, comparable to a small number of other martial arts. Some of them, according to rumors, even sharpened their teeth into sharp weapon, they bit off ears, noses, lips and fingers of his opponents. And considering that the genitals are not protected by the special rule, a lot of men have lost their courage during these cold-blooded clashes. This heartless cruelty - the main reason that "Coups and throws" infrequently discussed or practiced in the modern "civilized" times. And since most of the methods were not officially ordered, and may not be used without the risk of severe injury, is a martial art for the most part ignored by the modern society of martial arts. Most people today, even those who like to fight, cruel enough for pulling out eyes, biting his neck, tearing off genitals used in "coups and throws."

Buck



Buck, the creation of the poor slums of Lima, Peru and is dangerously violent martial art that teaches not only quick to maim and / or kill your opponent, but also to use deception and "not honest" tactics such as the use of hidden weapons.

The result is a bruising style blitzkrieg that is incredibly difficult to predict.

Lerdrit



Lerdrit - modern development of traditional Thai combat techniques, which involved the elite special forces of the Thai royal army. Basic principles lerdrita like his predecessors (Muay Thai (Muay Thai), Muay Boran (Muay Boran)). However, there are some key differences, which give it a new level of coolness. Soldiers are trained to attack without warning, immediately throw the opponent to the ground and ending the fight with one of the killer powerful blows, such as a blow to the throat with his boot or elbow in the head. These methods are aimed at preventing injuries, applying such "proof" of the body, like the knees, hands, leg and above the classic elbow. As is the case with other military martial arts goal lerdrita radical and it is specifically designed for situations where a person is between life and death. It is not for the beating, and for deprivation of life.

The system of unarmed combat



Let's be honest - to survive in Russia, you have to be a little crazy. It is not surprising that the system (the common name of several species of martial arts used by Russian special forces) are so cool and efficient in terms of "belief" capitalist pigs. The system focuses on the control of major parts of the body - the elbows, neck, knees, waist, ankles and shoulders, using strong and precision strikes. The main philosophy of systems based on the laws of biomechanics and anatomy, and most of the training is the study of the natural vulnerability of the human body in order to then apply it to their own purposes. Another unique characteristic of the system is that it does not focus only on the battle one-on-one without a weapon, as in many other martial arts. On the contrary, here we study the possibility of a fight with multiple opponents, attacking at the same time with different weapons in their hands. After all, what could be better than to blame any Ambala? Well, for example, to win over five or six thugs.

One of the most significant subspecies is Marma Artie (Marma Arti) (blows to vital points), which is "in the hands" Master can instantly paralyze or kill with a single, surgical strike in one of the 108 ganglia, which are considered highly vulnerable. And, given that they are so dangerous that they are experiencing the pangs of conscience, the master of this powerful art also study medical system Siddhi (Siddha), which emerged from the same ancient teachings.

Silat
