  • As a martial artist from Japan, I'm happy to see a footage of a traditional African martial art, Egbe Ogun. The article on Black Belt magazine wwas impressive and insightful.

  • @crazyboyfromjapan Ive just seen brother Ahati kilindi Iyi (Tamerrian Institute) in the UK’s, Martial Arts Illustrated magazine (july 2010). It's a nice interview. African fighting arts don’t get good media coverage like Asian arts do. In fact, most people think martial arts is only an Asian thing. Africans and Europeans have their own arts.

  • Man I really wish you guys had a School up in Quebec, Canada. I'm a Capoeirista and have a huge fascination for african martial arts... which are a really important heritage for Capoeira. Keep up doing what y'all do. Amani na uhuru.

  • Someone bring that to Philly please!

  • I plan to visit Atlanta in December. Would love to train with you guys. I'm from Afrika. Seeing this makes me homesick. Your technique is as sharp as the masters in my village!

  • The defense training at 0:24 is very impressive.

  • the stick fighting was zulu, impressive.

  • BRILLIANT! Our sisters NEED this (we brothers do too...LOL)!

  • GOOD job on the martial arts commercial, i liked it keep up the good work guys. We need to know more about self defense in our community.

  • bring this to riverside county in cali too
