@@KarateDojowaKu hi I ll tell you one interesting fact. Daruma the teacher of Zen Buddhism in Japan was a Tamil Prince. He is also the founder of the Kung Fu. His full name is Bodhi Dharma.
There are many punching movements are there Chadakamurakal A funny video is here for you ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-V0ba_yWxBCs.html
Kalaripayattu is specifically from the southern Indian state called Kerala. Within Kerala, there are the Southern and the Northern styles of Kalaripayattu. The key aspect of Kalaripayattu, is the detailed knowledge of the vital spots within the human body (a senior practitioner gets taught around 120+ vital spots or "marmas" within the body), with the various strikes (using weapons and also with the bare hands/legs) focusing on those spots.
I’ve done a month of kalaripayattu in December as part of a yoga ttc. I have a massive respect for it and I also found the drills helped my flexibility for Goju-ryu
There is also a lost (or undisclosed) form of Kalaripayattu, called Marma Vidya. It is part of the medical studies that you saw as oil massage and bone setting video. But that medical knowledge is used to attack the opponents' weak points. This is only passed on to eligible students as it can be very dangerous if not used judiciously, so not many people have knowledge about it. In olden times, Kalari was also the only schooling that children had. So, they were taught subjects like math, language, grammar, and others in Kalari as well.
A true martial art teach not only how to fight, but also how to think - building the body and the mind together. MENS SANA IN CORPORE SANA - A healthy mind needs a healthy body.
my dad had practiced kalari at his youth for 2 years. from the use of extremely dangerous weapons like blade whips ,my dad is a lowkey good physician . even after a shotokan black belt dan 4 he still learned many new things in kalary.
@Prem Varun vallavanuku pullum ayudham , when u use it correct way in war then its really usefull , when u dont know to use it , then it is use less everywhere, even if know to use it u should use it wisely then only it will be more benificial
@@vishnubsreenivasan8553 inside Kerala itself kalari from northern Kerala is different from the ones in farther southern part of Kerala that is what he was referring to.
@@thirumurugan4986 Adimurai and all southern styles followed in tamil nadu and 3 districts in kerala northern style practioners are completely keralities. My grandfather is a great practioner of southernstyle and our family diety is kalari kali amma
@J 1995 are aware of shaolin sword? Whose name was given to it? Also shaolin temple was a normal temple before the arrival of damo. These chinese won't agree a south indian as their master.
@@subn_ yeh, Only ten percent of the kalari, or the basis of the kalari, is mentioned in the video Punching is one of The most important tactic in kalarippayattu
@@subn_ in hindi he is saying in kalaripayatu they also have knowledge of attacking 64 main energy points, pressure points, marmas, many mudras, postures, etc
@02:01 the block he does with both weapon and shield, is very, very, very stupid. I am a martial artist with Kung fu, Karate, Taekwondo, different MMA sports like Daido Juku, Gongkwon Yusul and normal MMA. Also tried some knight fighting with swords and shields (medieval European style). IF you block like that with both weapon and shield, and the enemy just feints the attack, and you have both weapon and shield up in the air, not protecting you, you are 100% dead. Really stupid "defense".
Sensei, the thought that came to you of facing to the front and punching to the sides is sure interesting. That was mentioned in a Malayalam (language of Kerala) film called Angamaly Diaries when a group of local guys were taught how to take on their opponent gang in college.
Hi, great video. You said in Karate we don’t exaggerate the movements, but I think we do. Just not as much as in kalaripayatt. For instance, in Shotokan you practice deep wide stances in the kata. But even Funakoshi Gichin Sensei said that in actual application the stances should be higher and not as long or wide so that you can move faster.
Sensei, really enjoyed your analysis. Eastern cultures are amazing in what they accomplish in martial arts and healing. They have much to share. Enjoyed the video so much, I've subscribed.
Great analysis brother. Much love from kerala.. We Indians love japan very much. I'm a karate and kalari trainer. That stretching is not merely a warm up brother. It has its own specific attacks. kalaripayattu has a lot of punches too. Please do analysis on other kalaripayatu videos also. Best of luck❤️
Sensei Yusuke have you ever thought of reviewing and commenting on the Brazilian martial art of Capoeira? It originated from the African slaves, that the Portuguese colonisers, took from Angola to Brazil. They disguised it as a dance, so that the Portuguese slave runners in Brazil would not know that they were secretly creating and practicing a form of combat and self defense. You can see it in the popular martial arts video game of Tekken, showcased by the Brazilian Capoeira based characters, such as Eddie Gordo and Christy Monteiro, as well as in the live action adaptation of the Tekken film, where the Brazilian Capoeira stylist Lateef Crowder Dos Santos, personifies Eddie Gordo in that film. Then in Thailand's martial arts, Muay Thai action hero, Tony Ja's martial arts film Tom Yum Goong (The Protector), he also once again fights real life Capoeira master, Lateef Crowder Dos Santos, in a burning Thai Buddhist temple. Capoeira has spectacular, dance like rhythmic footwork, kicks, leg sweeps, take downs and visually superb acrobatics. I definitely recommend Capoeira as a martial arts review for your RU-vid channel, as a future episode, Osu!🇲🇽🇦🇺🥋✌👍
@Prem Varun I think the term "dancing" can be a bit misleading when referring to capoeira. Style is important and there are graceful movements, but a better term would be "playing" instead of dancing. There are some doubts whether it even started as a disguised dance, as dancing itself was also forbidden during the time capoeira developed, so that disguise would not be very helpful. (read Nestor Capoeira's works on that subject) The graceful movements can be compared to what happens in for example silat, it looks graceful, but the movements all have purpose and there needs to be safety, guard and option for counter attack at all times. The acrobatics are a combination of creating momentum, moving around the opponent in a difficult to hit manner, and the playing aspect (which is what is dropped quite fast as soon as a it needs to be used for actually hitting someone). Overall, it is something that is hard to categorize, especially with its historical backgrounds, the use of music, philosophy, etc. Many people are attracted to different aspects of it and some of them are going mostly for the martial arts aspect which has a lot to offer. Personally, I would love to see a reaction video on similarities between Brazilian Capoeira and Japanese Taido
reminded me as a cross between a Kata and a Yoga routine. Makes sense that you would want to be as flexible as possible so when you have to do it for real its easier
Hi hope you can also react to different martial arts in the world. And I also would like to see your reaction to Filipino Martial arts, arnis also known as Kali or Eskrima/Escrima, it is the national martial art of the Philippines a knife fighting is a special survival martial arts that is exclusively taught to special forces groups of the Philippine law enforcement agencies and our own Military soldiers. It is a fighting technique that works around the blade system. Arnis is also the national sport of Philippines. It is also known as Eskrima and Kali. This sport actually emphasizes weapon based fighting which is done using knives, bladed weapons, sticks and various improvised weapons. But today it is taught everywhere. thankyou.
In certain styles of traditional karate, the movements are also exaggerated in kata for different reasons: physical exercise value, kokyu/ki exercise value or even to obscure bunkai. Even stance work. Forward stances held deeper than will ever be in application or horse stances held longer than will ever be in application.
*Hi Sensei!* Namaste 🙏 Actually, there're not just Punching involved is in Kalaripayattu, but there're a huge variation in different types of punches(strikes wholely speaking). In which, many of these're even found in Karate with different names as well, but the formation is same. For example- Hiraken(Ardhmushthi Mudra), Shuto(Chakra Mudra), Hiji and Hiza(Ashwa praharam), Nakadaken(gajamukham mudra), Ippon ken(ashwamukham mudra), Ippon Nukite (Vishnu Mudra), Nihon Nukite(Vel mudra dwitya prakaram) and so on and on, same with Kung Fu also. Some more examples of Kalaripayattu strikes are: Shiva Trishul Mudra, Shakti Mudra, Vaata Nashak Mudra, Sarpmukham Mudra, Vel Mudra pratham prakaram, Mushtham Mudras(in 2 variations, 1 Vertical and 2 Horizontal Punches), Patra Praharam, Varanarpraharam, Mastak Praharam, Sarasmukham Mudra, panchanguli mudra etc. The counting is very very huge and these're only which I know, and yet there're 90% those which I don't and from the whole about 50-95% have gotten extinct as well. But the point here's, in Karate as you've said, we use our full strength in one strike to deal damage critically to our opponent and the main focus stays on Breaking Bones(as much I know). But in Kalari(under Verumkai) we also use our strength though not particularly full, as it's not needed instead we use these upper mentioned mudras on the some particular Vital Points/Marmas over our opponent's body and with perfect technique to deal damage to him/her as it's full potential, and here the main focus stays on several things such as affecting severely on Internal Organs and their respective Systems, Bone Joints attacking, Muscle damaging critically, Breath Stopping (Specialized in the attacks on the Neck), Blood Vessels and Nerves affecting attacks, Directly Brain attacking and sometimes causing instant Death☠️ as well; in the different types of strikes! *Hope this would've helped you.*
There is punching in kalari... this is the northern style with more emphasis on weapons for warfare... The southern style focuses on open hand attacks, punches kicks and vital point finger attacks which are its speciality.... there are also many lesser known styles like in kungfu, this is just one of them. Like thulunadan, central style, karnatic etc.....
4:32 that weapon is called urumi, i am from kerala 5:33 that is how your start kalaripayattu, its like greeting/praying all gods and sun before you perform
I had a Butsudan in my house as a Kid, my mother practiced a Japanese form of Buddhism. Most western people will have no idea what it is though (Shrine/sacred space contained within a box/shelf/cupboard, usually with an item, or items placed in it that have meaning attached, from offerings to Buddha and Bodhisattva's to representations of oneself spiritually etc etc)
@Joshua Cossey kalaripayattu is considered the mother of all martial arts. It is formed 5000 years ago it. Kalaripayattu is formed by an indian god “parashuraama”
@@aniketsatpute2389 rigveda is older than you think it mentions of Saraswati river which dried about 7000 to 9000 years ago and according to distorians Indians didn't wrote their history (typical aryan invasion crap) hence kalariapayatu being about 5000 yrs old make sense
Just wanna tell you that none of these martial arts actually works in real life. Probably great training for fitness and staying healthy. But dont go in a fight and believe this will actually save you. - You want less movement, faster moves, harder attacks. - If someone trains this sport and feel offended, or even Aikido or anything, I am open to duel you when I come to India.
There is punching in kalaripyattu mostly practiced in northern kalaripyattu abd here punching is called as musti yuddha which literally means hand to hand combat
💢👁🗨👁🗨क्या कोई ऑनलाइन कक्षा के माध्यम से 64 महत्वपूर्ण बिंदुओं / दबाव बिंदु / मार्मा बिंदु हमले और उनकी मुद्राओं(🤞,☝,🤚,👊,🤘) के बारे में अध्ययन करना चाहता है?💢💢
Kalaripayattu teaches not only self defense but also the proper technique to get fit 6 major human body systems namely Respiratory system, Cardiovascular system, Digestive system, Musculoskeletal system and Exocrine system. It's a lifestyle not a only martial art. It was invented around 5000 BC in India that's why it is called the origin of all martial arts
We will never know which form was the very first if we are very lucky we may one day establish which form still alive is oldest. But do not bet on that.
@Akash Goswami Yes, question everything. Also use logic. We are human and thus we are going too human. Giffen our psychological make up it is a sure thing conflict and violence has been with us before we even left the trees. All mammals even all animals i know of have too deal with at least some form of violence. But we are also wired to think and organisize stuff in categories, systems etc. We also tend too practice things formally or not. And thus it is a pretty safe bet that at least some rudimentary martial arts have always been with us. Extremely unlikely that the Greeks were first. We will never now for sure but it is much more likely that it simply evolved with us. Now the claim that one form of MA IS the very oldest still in practice. Incredebly difficult to ever really proof historicly and or archeologicly. I bet we never will but MAYBE we can at some point say which is the one we can too some extend show too go back further than any other we know of. BUT that is not actually demonstrating in fact it IS. But it is the closest we can hope for. It also is of not to much interest. Somehow people are often obsessed with "the first" or the "oldest" almost like it is a contest of sorts. So what some dude in Greece was the first to break an arm in a particular way ? Does that take anything away from let us say an Eskimo on Greenland thinking the same trick up independently 200 years later ?
@Akash Goswami So they say perhaps he taught some form of it. But "China" was around a long time before him bashing eachothers heads in on a quite regular basis. Am i to believe that not one single Chinese person had upto that point NOT thought up at least something ?
@Akash Goswami I am fully aware of that my friend. But that is still no good reason to asume China had nothing along the lines of it already. What we then first should agree on is WHAT constitutes a "Martial Art" Itself a term that before the Romans came about literally could not exist.
@Akash Goswami Exactly part of my point. But interresting as history is let us first and formost enjoy martial arts and apreciate other forms for what they are and learn from eachother.
@Akash Goswami My friend when you talk about facts it is best to keep lord shiva out of the discussion. Nothing is a fact unless you can proof it and there is no reasonable doubt possible. Historicly it is highly unlikely that the Arts of Mars began in one single place and time. Even more unlikely that we can ever point it out and PROOF such a claim. But is stands too reason that it rose more than once in more then one group of people over a long time.
5:06 Of course punching is used in the kalari and 18 tactics including punching are mainly present in the kalari And, the word punch was originated from the oldest indian language sanskrit Feelings happy to see a foreigner respond to the kalari and hope you do more kalari related videos 🤗🤗
@@missabrakadara8737 Punch, as in fruit punch, comes from Sanskrit for five (five fruits). Punch "to box; to strike with a fist" comes from Proto Indo-European *pewg to Lat. pugnere (root for punch, pounce, pugnacity, pugilism, etc.).
Bro , do you know about Bodhidharma ? He is whorshipped in Japan and China as DaMo. He was a South indian prince of tamil ethnicity who became a buddhist monk and went to China. He founded and spread Zen Buddhism there and also thaught his knowledges and skills about medicine and meditation. He was also a master in Kalaripayat and he thaught it to the chinese which later become Kung Fu. Please react to movie scenes of “7am Arivu“ its about him.
2:36 I think Daruma Because Bodhidharma/Daruma(in Japanese) established Shaolin Temple and Kung Fu, Herbal medication was taught to Chinese in 5th century... Proud to be an Indian 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Sir, Thank you very much for accepting Kalarippayattu. Please come to Kerala. We can practice Kalarippayattu together. I know the Southern style. So please come Sir... You are welcome.
Thanks for making a video on indian Marshall art.its a art from south India.i live in in north india.south indian are so good in this.and north indian are good in boxing.thankyou so much from heart to making a video on Indian art.
At 2:15 the sword around the neck shown is seen a lot in Wushu one handed sword exhibitions. So yea you can see how it is the origin of all Shaolin Kung Fu styles which modern Wushu is heavily based on
@J 1995 this is what written in wikipedia-Bodhidharma was a semi-legendary Buddhist monk who lived during the 5th or 6th century. He is traditionally credited as the transmitter of Chan Buddhism to China, and regarded as its first Chinese patriarch. According to Chinese legend, he also began the physical training of the monks of Shaolin Monastery that led to the creation of Shaolin kungfu. In Japan, he is known as Daruma. His name means "dharma of awakening (bodhi)" in Sanskrit.[1]
@J 1995 @J 1995 @J 1995 in the first passage it's written that it's unclear that Bodhidharma was real or not but in second it's written that he left Yi Jin Jing from which monks obtained fighting skills.... therefore it's also unclear that Origin of Kung Fu was fully from China or not... anyway I am not expert
Not sure if you already heard of this but there is another martial art from Manipuri, India. It's called Huyen Langlon or Thang-Ta, meaning sword and spear
I think you missed seeing the section where the host / narrator mentioned Kalaripayattu includes the practice of healing / medicine as well. The highest practitioners of the martial art have to master healing injuries as well - this I think by itself makes it unique among all the major martial art forms. Not sure if you know that Kung-Fu's origin story mentions the monk from southern India - called Bodhidharma (Tamo or Damo in Chinese sources). He is also credited with spreading the form of Buddhism that later was named as Zen
Mastery of Urumi is an important part in Kalaripayattu. It is most dangerous sword of the world. Very much dangerous than a katana. Katana is the 4th place.
Northern style of Kalari is similar to Northern Shaolin with high kicks and fluid movements and animal stances. I believe Southern style/Adimurai is close to karate.They have side and square stances that goes around all directions with kicks, punches, elbows and knees.
I believe... And this is just what I believe, that the first martial arts began when the first thought was planted... "how can I defend myself?" And when he/she had a plan, executed it and held on to it and others learned from it. Maybe not as a 10th degree tkd black belt but...
HAND MOVEMENTS SUCH AS PUNCHING YOU ASKED ABOUT , MORE LIKE BARE FIST FIGHTING IN KALARIPAYATTU ARE DESIGNED TO AIM FOR CRITICAL HITS AS ITS A FORM OF WARFARE MORE THAN A SPORT AT THE MOMENT. SO , ALL THE MOVEMENTS INVOLVED ARE DEADLY AND THUS THEY HAVE NOT BEEN GIVEN PERMISSION TO FIGHT WHITOUT THE GURUS PERMISSION. AS FAR AS I KNOW MANY ARE TRYING TO MAKE IT IN A WAY SO THAT SOMEDAY IT CAN ALSO BE USED IN SPORT FORMS OR IN MMA FIGHTS , BUT WHO KNOWS WHAT THE CURRENT SITUATION IS .
Punching is used in very close range. usually 'adi' (blow, beat) is used more..because Kalarippayattu was formed to be used in war though it is used in duels also.. and it is difficult to punch a Kalarippayatu practitioner due to their lower stance.
Kalarippayatt that you watched is the way it is taught not the way how it is fought. These are the basics to learn speed ,techniques , gain strength, but in real fight, fighters have to improvise it. And use. They will reduce the exaggerated movements so that speed will be increased but will have the same strength and high stamina.
Недавно посмотрел одно видео из Дискавери " Тайны боевых искусств" где два брата Дак и Джими путешествовали по разным странам где жили и тренировались с неделю. Так вот в этом видео очень хорошо показана техника рукопашного боя Каларипаятту, владение ногами отличнейшее, растяжка отменная, те-же удары что в Ушу и в Карате, много круговых движений как в Ушу. Тела, руки и ноги занимающихся Каларипаятту очень крепкие хотя в Каларипаятту не приветствуются разбивание предметов, чрезмерная закалка конечностей. Но удары очень крепкие. Владение холодным оружием просто филигранное. Каратистам есть чему поучиться.
When you said punching there is a few...but in some cases its similar to all the othet, training having many series...but most of them all we have pressure point attacks which hurt alot and can kill...some of thier training is classified as for some shoudnlt be taught and used
subbed! my dad studied Okinawan Karate in the Philippines when he was a college student in the early 70sThe Japanese sensei who opened the school was greatly respected. in his era, there was an emphasis on the full contact nature of the martial art. can you review Pekiti Tirsia Kali? its featured at the Funker Tactical channel
This is the most ancient martial arts they have many forms for fights from hand to hand to sword to 9 swords belt etc. thanks for showing this in your channel
