@sweatrice : When You Make A Historia[not His-Story] Time Line Of Martial-Arts, The Oldest Of All Chi[Ganuwa/Olmec Word Given To The Chi-nese/Corporate-Name]-Arts By The Olmec/Ganuwa[Atlan/African]...­Not Corporate-Chinese...This is Not Heresy, This Is Our-Storical-Records By Ancient Scroll Manuscripts That Our Elders Do Have & Public-Forum Knowledge Carved Into Stone & Painted Artefacts In Tama Re. Is There Anything You Know That Is Of African Achievement That Caucasians Have Surpassed?

[ronin752]

@Standardfrank

Sorry Frank, we as Africans have had martial arts, ancient martial arts, but Chinese martial arts are distinctly Chinese. If we see the outer similarity and think that it is African, then we clearly don't understand Chinese martial arts. We do not have to be the originators of everything to be great.

[Standardfrank]

@ronin752 : Sorry Frank, we as Africans have had martial arts, ancient martial arts, but Chinese martial arts are distinctly Chinese. = MARTIAL-ARTS...That's The TERM USED By NON-NUMBANU-CULTURES...TO EXPRESS WHAT THEY HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT FOR THE ORIGINS OF SPACE & TIME EXPRESSED AS COMBAT-SEQUENCING AGAINST AGGRESSION ...WHAT IS UNIQUE TO THE CHI-NESE IS THEIR TRUNCATED UNDERSTANDING OF The Si-Gi~Sa That UNIFIES NATURE'S SOUND-CONSTANTS WITH THE BODY-KINKS! FLOW IS FLOW & JOINTS BEND THE SAME!

[DaTaBASE3089]

Wow...Effective,really effective hand tehnique,I am impressed.

[DritonGusia]

it doesnt seem powerful, I think some movements are needless compared to the far eastern martial arts... or maybe it is just too smooth to introduce a fight

[DaBlackX]

@DritonGusia

No, that's just your bias talking, which stems from both the overexposure and romanticism of Eastern Martial Arts. No matter what you want to call it, its end result is ignorance.

[Standardfrank]

@DritonGusia : Your commets are confusing:

~1. it doesnt seem powerful: Master Bakari Is Demonstrating Form Not Breaks!

~2. I think some movements are needless: Meaning You Are Not Sure...

~3. ..compared to the far eastern martial arts: Are You Suggesting COMBAT?

~4. or maybe it is just too smooth to introduce a fight: WATER IS SMOOTH, BUT WOULD YOU BE SO STUPID TO ATTEMPT A DROWNING OR A SWIMMING IN THE PACIFIC-OCEAN 200 MILES OFFSHORE?

[bhstwo]

Hey whats up! I loved your channel!

Its cool. Check out mine! Stay in touch. Hope you got my friend request! Maybe you can sub thanks This is for everybody that see this too

[Shaddydad]

All praise be to Allah dis is beautiful brothers

[masterbakari]

@Shaddydad All Praises.. Hotep!

[privythamc]

perhaps you should respond to DritonGusia, I'm sure he means no disrespect, maybe he needs more info about the movements

[masterbakari]

@privythamc I would only say this much: Look while you are looking and keep a clear head.

[sharpjade1]

@masterbakari Where are you located at?

[SithV1]

Shackle hands resemble Karate-jutsu and Fujian white crance boxing. The applications of the self-defense moves demonstrated looks very similar to the bunkai on Seiyunchin kata.

[DaBlackX]

@SithV1

I'd wager to say those three styles look like THIS, since it's African and probably older.

[CushiticSomalianMale]

everything originated in Africa, in this case Martial arts andwrestling all that stuf originated in Africa,so did all humans..... all so-called races are a sub-race of the Black original races..... simple Facts... unDenyable Facts! accept it..... Hotep

[sigmacombatsystems]

Yes and no. India martial arts and Egyptian martial arts are the oldest on record. But martial arts have no origin. They are based on natural movement, instinct, and environments. Hence most arts have similarities in one way or another to each other.

All human life technically started in Africa, mind you at that point we were apes, not a "black original race." Some stayed in what would eventually become Africa, some migrated, all evolved and became new races.

[12santiago12]

Lol.. you have your facts so so wrong.. its fact that every one has dna that traces back to 1 african woman that lived in africa..she was human btw..

[privythamc]

every decade or so we find bones of intelligent humans (African) judging by the items found with them, the only "proof" there is that says we were ever apes. is by deduction and the scientific method of analysis.though it is safe to say that the longest reign of substantive intelligent arts came out of Africa. never in the history of man have one group of people been more plagiarized, admired, deified and then vilified than that of Mother Africa

[masterbakari]

@privythamc You could not have said it any better my Brother!

[slytheron]

@sigmacombatsystems as you said, "on record". Humans have existed long before there was any "record" to speak of. peace.

[slytheron]

@sigmacombatsystems as you said, "on record". Humans have existed long before there was any "record" to speak of. peace.

[danjclay27]

@sigmacombatsystems incorrect. we were all humans when we left africa.

[Naga7206]

Beautiful movements and smooth! The African arts really are a hidden treasure, the origins of all arts ;)

[yogioto]

african ving tsun one could say, I like that...

[halfhausaman]

all this stuff is just dancing I'm from northern Nigeria and we still prctice our martial art dambe which is brutal and straight to the point like muai thai.

no disrespect but we need to stop paying attention to form and more to combat.

[sigmacombatsystems]

Any way you could get some videos of Dambe up? I've been dying to find out more about it.

[rudeboyg86]

mmmm-mmm-mm I need to learn this teach me bro

[MyNameIsSamael]

Excellent. 5*

Love the practicality as well.

[Coolbird00]

I thoungh this style die out along time ago.

[smoothhoopinal]

Beautiful. I was impressed when I actually saw the practicality of this later in the vid.

[bboygizzmo84]

You need to come to the UK asap...we need you here brother!!!

[masterbakari]

Coming to the UK isn't a bad idea.I grew up their until my early teens, went to school in Northamton and my Father is still living in Darby.

[Jordangib]

is the shackled hands dvd instructional?

[MDIS]

Honestly , that would work in a close street style defense . As you can see from his slow and deliberate demostrative movements , a slap or knifehand to the neck , elbow to the jaw and myriad of straight strikes , this would work if your hands are cuffed or tied.

I have had tried a handicapped combat sport and trust me , if you only had one hand , you still have a head and two legs.

Good skills and very informative.

Peace brother.

[masterkudjo]

Nice, only problem. That will not work in a real fight. I do wing chun, and even in that you need to cut to the basics. Stuff that looks good dont realy work.

[DaBlackX]

@masterkudjo

Your inability to utilize your techniques when it matters, on top of your anecdotal evidence, mean nothing in the grand scheme of things.

[AhnicB]

love the short hand work.

[udeenallah]

this is beautiful......

[iwillhaveaworkoutvid]

this is great

[Rasepreme]

Yo, this looks exactly like grasp the birds tail in yang taichichuan except he put his wrist together.

[mythx123]

Where can I learn the ancient art of Shackle Hands?

[nefariousD11]

You can be taught if you want to learn. The hard part is finding a teacher who knows this rare technique. I was lucky to have been taught by Master Bakari. Although my training in shackle hands was brief, I still practice it from time to time.

[Scott200]

I'm actually curious to where and when "Shackle Hands" actually originated.

[masterbakari]

On a planet far far away..!!!

[bestperformingtroupe]

....:}

[masterbakari]

We call it...Shackle Hands.

[fierythought]

HoTep Brother!

Beautiful, I practice "Shackle hands' in Cuffs or binded by rope,twine! Also good to have you as a Myspace "friend". I was initiated into Shanti Amani a Yoruba Dance/Combat Troupe. Yes, Brother Back To Kemet!

Peace

[OctoBox]

Very cool -- how much has hsing-i played a part in skackle hands -- is this not clever kung fu with the hands tied together.

As kids we learned 52 handblocks (Los Angeles version) in the 70's (back when people fought, rumbled). Some of the older kids, maybe as prison prep, maybe maturity learned "tied hands" or "cuffed hands" which was not as kung fu looking. Like, tie the hands and see what you can do. Even Russian Systema people practice this. So, my Q? is what style is this really?

[masterbakari]

You also forget to mention.."clever Karate, clever Judo, clever Kempo etc. But if you are going to use the Word "Clever" You might want to check out the temple walls in Egypt.

[opticannon]

remember that there are animal gods in the temples of egypt as well huh? and what about all that wicked weaponry they have that is unlike anything in the world. did you also see the color of the dudes doing the manuevers. they are not brown but in laid in ebony. sniff, sniff, sniff im so proud.

[7Matahari7]

When we look at Sil Lam bam South Indian/Sri Lankan martial art, which also comes be4 the Siu-Lam or Shao-lin as some spell it(notice similar spelling) brought to China by the Bodhidharma(and others), a black Dravidian, an art that looks nearly identical to both shao-lin Kung Fu and Sudani/Kemetic fighting styles, should we think it "looks" too "kung Fu" also? And where do you suppose the Dravidian's came from, and from where did their martial art first develop? How do you define African?

[fugitive32]

I have studied afkican martial arts in paterson nj. I am so glad to see authentic afrikan martial arts on you tube

[masterbakari]

Peace and Blessings.

[memyself2k]

Brother, the clip is incredible. Will you ever do seminars in New York City? Peace.

[bigjheazy]

pretty cool brother you should also check out here on youtube a video called kemetian fighting

[masterbakari]

OK.

[peazy7]

Beautiful..Thank you brother

[SSGokuVegeta]

Awsome!

[MIsssMP]

is this voodoo ?

[masterbakari]

Voodo is a West Afrikan Religion. The Voodoo could very well be in the techniques though.
