Merci CorbusierPuche pour votre question.

I only forgot to mention KALARIPAYATTU, which

also featured in the series "Deadly Arts"

presented by Canadian Josette D. Normandeau on

National Geographic in 2004.

And yes, you can also find excerpts from AIKIDO and CAPOEIRA from the "Deadly Arts"-series on You Tube. It's just a matter of time

before we will see the entire series on You Tube. Hopefully very soon.

Merci et Au Revoir. Bon chance!

This was an excellent series on National Geographic a few years ago. Josette Normandeau

met, talked and trained with the Great Masters

of such diverse martial arts as AIKIDO, KARATE, MUAY THAI, KRABI KRABONG and CAPOEIRA.

It gave us a great insight of these wonderful

arts and there origin and heretige.

I still got these little treasures on tape and

lately I have been watching them regularly.

So Josette, what about another great series?

Best wishes,

Why isn't this more popular? This is crazy good!

Bad promotion perhaps? Also, if you think about it, most kickboxing events don't allow using the hard savate boot, so you have to rely on shin kicks that are not allowed in savate. Also, I don't think there are any pro events, so the savateurs that want to have a career train in other disciplains in order to participate in their events. Still, you can see savate's influence in their game.

@chickenfoot0

because its mostly kickboxing with shoes, which makes it a bit daunting i think.
