'Traditional martial arts also a scientific hand to hand combat system. explain how do u differ the traditional form and scientific combat system.

Good point. A lot of these krav maga fan boys wouldn't be able to touch a shaolin monk.

Krav Maga, Systema and the likes are self defense courses not martial arts per se.

Every traditional martial art has "self defence" incorporated in it, but it goes beyond self defence and it encompasses physical conditioning, body-mind coordination, discipline, self confidence and peaceful spiritual thoughts, since, when you master a martial art - be it kung fu , karate or aikido ...- you never feel aggressive , so you do not attract aggressive people to start with.

To answer some childish posts here comparing martial arts in fights, there is no such fantasy, in reality, anyone who fully masters a traditional martial art can defend himself against any other fighting arts.
The flowery dance in kung fu is very deceptive to the untrained eye, it hides some of the deadliest and most effective of "all weather" fighting techniques.
I personally prefer traditional Aikido of master Ushiba, with background in Tae kwon Do, Okinawan or shotokan karate, shoringi kempo or Shaolin kung fu as a plus.
Taijitsu is one of the most efficient Martial arts, but it is still just a small part of a more powerful and specialised martial art called ninjatsu.

There are just too many wonderful styles to chose from.

my son, a shaolin monk's entire body is a weapon. Starting from an early age, they condition every part of their body.

Evidently some folks have very little real life experience.

Flowery dances and the like , may be technically scientific , a ninjutsu claw may be a potent weapon in the hands of an experienced practitioner.

Now , lets say we take a real life scenario. A car jacking or a shootout inside a public shopping mall. Can we assume that an ordinary person takes a claw with him to every damn place he goes , or that an "intricately scientific" flowery dance is the first thing that comes to his mind when he sees his young daughter held hostage by an armed thug ?

This is the basic difference between a modern fighting system and traditional forms ---practicality. In modern systems you have no rules , no disqualifications , no rings ( as in typical MMA contests ) . Nothing matters except personal safety within the ambit of the law - which is what distinguishes Krav Maga , Systema , U.S Hand to Hand etc from Traditional forms.

Those with a bit of deeper knowledge will understand that Krav Maga ( for example) incorporates many practical moves from eg Jujitsu ( Groundfighting based) , Taek wondo ( kick defense) , elbow strikes are taken from Muay Thai and so on and so forth.

In short all practical moves are taken and anything unpracticeable discarded which happens to be Flowery dances , exotic kicks ( like 360 degree spin kicks , flying roundhouses etc.) . Such moves look cool on TV but are a no goer in a practical situation.

@The SC : Nice information Mr. Philosopher/Theorist but I would really urge you to step out of your ring into the streets. I 'm sure you will find life drastically different there.

AS far as traditional fighting systems go , I doubt there is a more complete system than our very own "Kalaripayuttu" , incorporating not just open handed combat , weapon based combat- sticks , long swords , flexible swords ( urumi ) etc but also body massages , healing techniques and a detailed study of the human anatomy , pressure points ( marmam) etc.

Fantastic work Mech for posting the pics :

Here is a documentary on Kalaripayuttu ( Part 1) filmed by Jimmy and Doug , an Iraq war vet and a Math teacher from L.A -- The hosts of a popular show called Fight Quest --dedicated to martial art practices around the globe :

Pakistanis have this pathetic habit of directing their words to the wind , avoiding direct debates and deflecting awkward situations with bad breath and mouth stink .

Come on kid, try coming up with some of your genuine talent instead of Kungfu action on TV. I wonder if this guy's ever been in a Kungfu training centre in his life. Pakistani Mini mouth mammoth words

In Pakistan our Kung fu centers could wipe the floor with bhartis and their krav maga or kalipu-whatever the hell.

We have no safety regulations and our martial arts schools are probably one of the best in the world.

I know you will be ****-hurt by this, so I will apologize in advance.

Its the usual " I/We am/are a superman" syndrome.

The high spirited "chest thumping" resembling the words of bullish kinder-garden kids are actually funny to read.

If you put your personal hatred for evil Y-axis(Yindu,Yahoodi,Yankee) aside you will notice what other forms are.

I dont have a very good knowledge about all martial art forms but i have learnt MMA and my sensei taught me moves of various forms like aikido,jijutsu,krav maga etc.

I dont know complete krav maga but whatever he taught me seemed very practical,lethal and most importantly quick.

There is always a vs stuff about the stylish fighter and a practical street fighter

A normal person should always train for the street fights coz no one aspires to win a championship.Street fights are quick and very unpredictable.

And i have had the taste of a street fight against 7 guys and trust me its very different than fighting in a do-jo.But if you have the training and the stamina you will come victorious no matter the opponent is 1 or 7.
