Savate Combos

[DrinkUrPruneJuice77]

I love these outfits

[mondo88]

minchia i power ranger!!!!!!!

[sahapoom1975]

I think Savate outfit is look gayest.

[Dj1LL]

nice dragon ball z outfits

[AlekSensej]

O man one time i seen a jungle savate.

Jungle savate is much more brutal when this.

[sabinoson]

Those leg kicks with the shoe look like they could do a lot of damage (not just impact, but cutting and scrapping) to an opponent. Ouch. Very nice combos. Thanks for posting!

[Dimitri0809]

Savate is awesome can't wait to gain confidence in this sport and learn to fight well.

[hotpopcorncake]

savate got some sick move's

[XNancyCX]

Very similar to Thai Boxing. And in some of their moves I found it similar to Israel Kraw Maga. Very inturesting technique indeed.

[Piatasify]

@XNancyCX I've seen a thai-boxer with a strong boxing background fight in a very similar style to this

[Dimitri0809]

@XNancyCX

Can you kick your oponent with pro wrestling boots on, what's the difference between pro wrestling boots and savate boots?

[thomas007]

Love this system.

Excellent footwork, and they have some really brutal kicks.

[Eso1]

No wonder bruce lee loved savate!

[ioriyagami]

i wanna see TKD vs Savate match. the styles (to me IMO) look identical.

[brucew22]

@ioriyagami Savate has good boxing hands, and has fully integrated the boxing with the kicking.

[AlexLococo]

@ioriyagami I don't know how they could look identical... savate has boxing, punches in TKD don't even work for other thing than pushing; savate has a straighter stance and arms up and focuses on accuracy, while TKD has arms near the ribs.

Savate is more similar with american kickboxing, but with stronger, more agile and accurate kicking.

[ioriyagami]

@AlexLococo i am not talking about the WTF (World Ta kwondo Federation) "sport TKD" like almost everybody sees, i am talking about the ITF style of TKD. the "Fighting" version of TKD. i took ITF so i know the diff. and the ITF and Savate styles are (again IMO) look so similar

[AlexLococo]

@ioriyagami Well, that's a style of TKD I'm not familiar with. I've heard of it, but never really saw it, perhaps I should look it out. I used to practice TKD, but it was WTF.

[AlexLococo]

@ioriyagami Well, just saw the ITF version, WTF being more popular explains why TKD is so disrespected. Yes, I did saw similarities too, but the punching in TKD is less technical, more straight punches with no boxing techniques and the kicking was less accurate, with more emphasis on strength and even more agility than savate (which itself is a pretty agile martial art).

[AlexLococo]

@ioriyagami Don't get me wrong, I liked it, but that's the impression it gave to me by watching a couple of videos. By "no boxing technique" didn't meant that it had "no technique", just that it didn't borrowed techniques from boxing, instead had its own, very different style, unlike Savate (not for no reason Savate's complete name is "French Boxing-Savate").

[BlueDemon77]

I'd love to study Savate but the nearest gym is 200+ kms away...

How do savateursdefend against the low kicks? Any knd of shin blocks like muay Thai?

[jamariooo]

@BlueDemon77 i train savate, no blocks for low kicks, only dodging techniques and they always teach you an effective counter attack after you dodged it. But when you get more advanced you can do lateral shase(sidekick)

into the leg opponent is trying to kick you with, so that would be some kind of block, that happens A LOT in sparring.

[BlueDemon77]

@jamariooo Thanks for the insight. I did some JKD and a similiar techniques are used, of course, Lee had a lot of respect for savate, so 'stole' the technique.

[sdurgefafd]

I'm not a fan of savate's costumes..

[bob23yer]

Isn't it forbidden to kick on the knees in contact sports?

[Toyomata]

@bob23yer sometimes, depends on what you consider a sport, legal or not legal

[tonyadams18]

Love Muay Thai and Savate:)

[oldemmerich]

anyone know where i can download or buy this series? :)

[k531323]

@oldemmerich

Its called SAVATE MY CHAMPION TECHNIQUES /with Kamel Chouaref/

[dragonfist25]

@oldemmerich try budovideos . com :-)

[victorrain]

Are the kick varieties limited in savate because you can only strike with your feet?

[kkkY11111]

@victorrain There's a good variety of kicks in savate, I'd say divided in 3 principles = direct, circular, luring. "fouetté" kick is the basic one but you have some "revers" some "chassés", jump kicks, step kicks. You can also use kicks to make your opponent fall on the ground in a judo way or also in a crouched circular way, but the "judo way" is the most used by tireurs.

[victorrain]

@kkkY11111 Are there advanced techniques in Savate that deal with closer range stuff like knees, elbows, or even grappling?

[kkkY11111]

@victorrain Hey!! Mhhh I'm not sure, I'm afraid you need to search more into savate défense. The competition (like this vid) is different than the street savating ; which I think can compare to jeet kun do. Competition have not the same codes than street fighting, like S.défense or "canne de combat".

In my opinion only, I'd say if you want to use the ground watch some savate défense and if you want weapons then canne de combat. But all of them are the same spirit XD

[victorrain]

@kkkY11111 Thank you very much for answering my questions. Are you a Savateur?

[kkkY11111]

@victorrain with some pencils now :)

[victorrain]

@kkkY11111 .....okay

[kkkY11111]

Maybe I didn't answered your question sorry, but th efact feets are used doesn't limit you, it's even better as you can play with close/long range tactic strikes. 

[jamariooo]

these guys in video suck, actualy all instructionson on youtube that i have seen about savate suck, thats why some people doubt in power of savate

[TheTaoofJKD]

@jamariooo These guys suck? They're both silver glove competitors from one of the most well know and successful savate camps in France. Yeah they aren't ripping into each other, duh it's an instructional video. If you don't take care of your partner you have no one to practice the technique on. Power is the least important thing when developing a technique. And I quote my savate instructor Prof. Salem Assli when he said that.

[jamariooo]

@TheTaoofJKD yeah i was wrong.. but i didn't mean cause of power, but cause he turned his right foot 90 deegres and not 180 while kicking with left in first combo in video and then i stoped watching so didnt see rest :/

[Branka4]

My goal is to reach mastery on all possible martial arts so cant w8 to start training savate =)

[looker768]

@Branka4 lol!

[rodfpuncher]

@Branka4 then u have allot of work

[ragny]

horrible music!!!!

otherwise very good

[azraelangelofred]

My first and primary art is Taekwondo. I later took Muay Thai, but didn't care for it. I used to wonder how could I use my TKD skills in kickboxing...my Uncle Darian insisted I try Savate. I still use a lot of TKD, but I borrow techniques from Savate. I just use my heel or shin rather thant he toe of my foot (Since I don't have the right shoes for it.) Does that make my art a better TKD, or Savate-TKD?

[shiz2theniz5]

i still don't see why ppl hate on the suits that savateurs wear.....it's really not that gay. they are like wrestling outfits, and those are way gayer than these outfits.

[hotpopcorncake]

but i like the techniqueis

[hotpopcorncake]

Those suit look too aerodynamic (gay).

[kkkY11111]

@hotpopcorncake if you wan't to see some fashion then go watch a vid of justin bieber.

[hotpopcorncake]

@kkkY11111 That's worst advise ever, so he can get more rich..hell no. i will not allowed this, you made me angry grrr..

[kkkY11111]

@hotpopcorncake That was my purpose!!! XD

And I save you the pain of full caps saying that!!

lol

I like how those suit looks, I had a red a black one from my brother, was awesome! But legs were open large (the slim legs suits I don't like). With good savate shoes it's a pleasur, lot better that sport clothes and nikes :p)

[hotpopcorncake]

@kkkY11111 I always wanna to try savate, but you have to kill me to be in those...

[kkkY11111]

@hotpopcorncake just go suited as you like to^^ short or else no biggy. But some shoes "wouldn't" hurt! Savate shoes are cool too!

[kkkY11111]

@hotpopcorncake Biggie even

[hotpopcorncake]

@kkkY11111 What's that?

[ABBIODISK]

Good Video and Leg Control... Very Impressive!

[ATACXGYM]

Savate is ill and while I admit that I wasn't at first loving the Lycra,it's growing on me. I love these combos...I'd just modify my stance so I don't get groin kicked.

[Malbec0]

What,s with the gay outfits?



[tomrichugpeltho]

@Malbec0 Yeah, as a fan of the art I can't say I love the sleeveless lycra one-pieces, but don't tell them that to their faces.

[malsahth]

@Malbec0 One word,  French... :P

[skayloss]

@malsahth yeah France country of love and romantism is gay... you hatefull bastard

[malsahth]

@skayloss oh shut up and learn to take a joke you big girl...

[kkkY11111]

@Malbec0 It's a tactical suit and not made for fashion. In war you don't care fashion, you care about effectiveness. You look people on apparence while their skill are much more important. You undertsood nothing...  who cares a suit look fine or good? its just a suit...

[jamexxxxxx]

cool i am training ju jitsu and i need to improve my striking

[yardkyle]

savate fuckin rocks

[Semimaru]

brilliant combinations, thanks for sharing!

[BdTAgentV]

C'est vraiment très esthétique (les jambes bien droites sur les fouettés et les revers) et très efficace comme technique.

Perso je pratique la canne de combat, et on travail sur le même principe.

[hindenwolf]

@BdTAgentV J'avais justement le sentiment que la canne de combat et la savate étaient souvent liées l'une à l'autre.

J'adore la souplesse qu'on y rencontre. Franchement, vivement qu'on me montre de plus près...

[sabinoson]

Nice combos. And I like the leg attacks with the shoes.

[johjoz]

Will use this, nice combinations

[YouthFist76]

Bruce Lee moved like a Savateur. Savate was around before him.

[samluke8121]

Bruce Lee had a deep passion for Savate when he came across it in France. Many of Bruce Lees kicks that you see in the movies where most Savate derived.

[humbleboxer1]

Am the only one who favors savate or thai boxing. they move like Bruce Lee.

[Semimaru]

aye bruce lee liked savate and talked about it in his books, particularly his long trademark movie side kick :D

[TaeIeon]

@humbleboxer1 Bruce lee adopted many moves from savate

[TaeIeon]

@humbleboxer1 Bruce lee learned alot from savate and french fencing (Dan inosanto said so)

[Kirillcankicker]

@TaeIeon

lol dude I saw his post, then I was about to say the exact same thing you were going to say.

[TaeIeon]

@Kirillcankicker :)

[OrlyDudeGuy]

@humbleboxer1 Bruce Lee observed and studied different martial arts, Savate is one of them.

[victorrain]

@humbleboxer1 Actually Bruce liked the kicks in this art and adapted them in Jeet Kune Do.

[AlexLococo]

@humbleboxer1 By "or" you mean "over"?

[salvtrooper113]

@humbleboxer1 Bruce Lee would get reels of Savate boxing and study their kicking techniques. Jeet Kune do incorporates Savate kicks

[dragonfist25]

@humbleboxer1 Bruce Lee borrowed heavily from savate according to Dan Inosanto.

[johnnylynnlee]

good combination! that´s in my asenal now!
