For those interested in kushti or indian wrestling, the person who did the original physical body dvds, has begun releasing outtakes on various parts of the kushti and training arsenal. https://vimeo.com/86132755 https://vimeo.com/84266195
Only seen the first five minutes of the first vid, will have to watch it later. But that looked amazing. Thank you for posting it.
Both were early dvds really trying to show how it was done in India. I met Vincent the guy who did the dvds and he is an amazing teacher who has traveled throughout Southeast Asia and India over decades, one of the rare few who really knows the depth of each art he studies and is able to communicate it.
some new ones. i really like the idea of the short vids on one topic http://vimeo.com/88321365 http://vimeo.com/88936612 http://vimeo.com/88952186
here is number six https://vimeo.com/91117934 all vids on one channel now https://vimeo.com/channels/708235 Enjoying these tremendously. Sort of taking one idea and showing things about it. Kind of cool especially if you like the dvds.
Yes, I was lucky enough to train with him and its just a tip of the iceberg of what he has trained in and documented. He only shows and talks about a small percentage of what he knows and is real concise so its good to see him sharing a bit more here and there. I really like this idea of short bits. Hopefully he will do more on different subjects which i think he is going to do.
Yes. I was on his Mailer for years. He took a right battering when he started telling folk that there were/ are all these original fighting systems (eg muay chaiya, ling lom, ler drit etc) throughout se asia etc. Really for 10 years or more Giordano has been trying to 'educate' a bunch of people who make ignorance their chief business. He's done a lot to raise awareness of older combat systems and the cultures that spawned them.
totally agree, Sokklab. His work on what is physical education in light of muay boran and the older systems still is totally misunderstood.
Nice piece from the ROSS training forum http://rosstraining.com/blog/2014/04/15/kushti-the-physical-body-outtakes/
