No, we don't have martial art, maybe we used to have in the history, I've never heard of this. BTW, Is there any need for that, while it is not practical? ------------- Either make a history or become a history. |

Its based upon an old Turkic martial arts which apparently exist in Chinease records where they recorded that some Turkic communities had "Alp"/"Alplik" schools where it was taught and developed.

Everybody had its own martial styles.
Nevertheless, MMA competitions showed uselessness of "Traditional Oriental Martial Arts". Classical boxing and wrestling are much more deadly.
Different wrestling styles which existed among Turkic nomades IMO were far more effective than so called "Chinese Martial Arts."
BTW, Turkic wrestling styles, for example Kazakh and Uzbek "kuresh" was used for the creation of the arguably best MA in the world "Russian sambo"
The basic technic of the best MMA fighter in the world Fedor Emelianenko is "Sambo", not fancy kung-fu or taekwondo which are totally useless in a real fight.

| I know Russia created a martial art during the middle ages called Systema (still practiced today) which is very open ended to deal with different fighting styles of the surrounding peoples. I know Russia isn't considered a steppe nation, but since they used Systema to fight against steppe peoples they might have something similar. |

Russians didn't have any "systema" in the middle ages. "Systema" is just a crap invented by some tricky Russians to cheat other people's money.
Moreover, this "systema" is totally ineffective and artificial BS. A kind of very poor imitation of Chinese MA.
Russians fought nomades with bows, arrows and swords. ------------- Σαυρομάτης

There is a lot of controversy on the topic of systema and maybe I shouldn't have brought it up. Almost all of the medieval warrior classes had a way to fight while unarmed because as much as they liked it, they DID get disarmed in combat, or on occasion caught off guard. The samurai had aikedo (SP?) and the western European knights had a system of their own which may have a name but it is a form of grappling. Think what you wish but I think systema is effective, more so in this modern age for self defense. |

Of course medieval warriors sometimes had to fight unarmed. Of course Russian had their own martial style in the Middle Ages. However, no reliable sources on this martial style survived.
People who they say that they know "ancient Russian martial style" are nothing more than cheap liars.
In order to evaluate the effectiveness of a fighting style look at Mixed Martial style competitions.
Who is represented there? Wrestlers, Boxers, Kick Boxers, Thai Boxers, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and Sambo practitioners.
There are no Aikido or Systema practitioners.
Effectiveness of MMA styles is proved in hundreds of documented fights. What is the proof of Systema effectiveness ?
Systema is nothing more than BS. For some reasons these liars got ground in Canada. I would stay away from these self appointed "Russian samurais."
May be it's effective against a weak guy who never did any sport in his life. A low level boxer will surely beat all the crap out of any Systema sensei. ------------- Σαυρομάτης

| well we all believe different things. I dont think any single martial art is effective on its own, but I like the idea of openess and fluidity involved in systema. Also are you saying Aikido is also BS? |

I respect aikido much more than Systema. Aikido has a tradition and a recorded history.
It depends on the purpose. Aikido is a perfect way to improve your phisical shape, flexibility etc. It's a good way of physical training.
However, I think it's not practical for the real fight. Again, you will never see an Aikido practioner in MMA competitions. My opinion is that some Aikodo techinques could be a good addition for a solid background in a more practical MA. However Aikido is ineffective as a basic technique for a real fight. ------------- Σαυρομάτης

| I disagree. Aikido is useful in the kind of fight it was designed for. You're an armoured samurai warrior fighting on foot and you sword breaks, then your short sword breaks, and you lose or break your dagger. An enemy comes charging at you and you side step grasp part of his armour and launch him away from you. Its a defensive against armed opponents. Also in this kind of discussion you want to focus on the use of the time. |
Posted By: Sarmat
Date Posted: 07-Aug-2007 at 00:58

Dont forget that Aikido was created in the 20th century when the fighting between 2 armoured samurais became obsolete.
Aikido represents a development of only one part of jiu-jitsu which included many more practical techniques.
But samurais in the middle ages didn't use Aikido in its modern form. It simply didn't exist then.
Jiu-jitsu BTW is also the base for judo and thus for Russian sambo and Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
By practicability I mean real fight smth. like street fight etc. ------------- Σαυρομάτης

Serial the Sword TV and the Holy Scripture, that is telling a story
about the alliance between the party of the red flower and the
champion- the Muslim champion to overthrow the dynasty manchu, then the
champion- the Muslim champion so Badur/the Champion from the Thifan
country.
Thifan personally located on the north- west the People's Republic China, or now entered the regional territory of Xinjiang autonomy and now more often was mentioned with Turfan. Turfan personally in the past was one of the cities that was passed the silk route, until being the area of the point of contact between the east and west culture. Thifan/turfan consisted of the Muslim majority of the ethnic group wigu/uighur/, tartar, moghul, kittan, fattan, tayli but also the ethnic group hui. Islam entered from the age to 2 hijriah, or the age 9 masehi, together with the arrival of the Arabian traders and persia as well as increasingly the strength of the Kekhalifahan influence abbasiyah in Baghdad. The Zhodam book The Thifan Pokhan story was written in the Zhodam book (Struggle Blood) that was written by Badur/the Champion Ahmad Syiharani. The contents of the book took the form of the story, or the hereditary story that was told from the mouth to the mouth until could not be made a history reference according to modern knowledge, but keakuratan him was higher than the legend or the fairy tale. This book was written in the language urwun, and was translated in the Malay language old by Hang Nandra Abu Bakar, a Acehinese royal district chief. As for this book contained about the Shurul Khan development (Thifan Pokhan and syufu Taesyu Khan) and about the story Badur/the Champion, Shuku/the Teacher, and Ahund/Ustad Shurul Khan Badur/the Namsuit |

Yes, but they did in the lost history! in Turfan (Xinjiang, autonomous of China now) In the east Turkestan there is a martial art called Taesyu khan or Shurul khan or Thifan po khan, but the it names seems to disappear from the tongue of the Turks. Even may be martial art itself is extinct, but with the power of God, it martial art had spread to distant countries with Muslim such as Indonesia. It martial art is taken by the Tatar people. I also read on the site SAYOKAN, martial art of Turkey, it martial art was established by Nihat Yigit in 1999, inspired from the history of Turk civilization. |

This is a little harsh, Sure the systema teachers have exagerrated the "ancient" origins of the system as a marketing technique. That exaggeration, however, does not make systema "BS".
A martial arts system does not need to be ancient to be legitimate. Talented athletes can and have invented new systems in recent years. Judo, for example does not have ancient origins at all. Krav Magna was invented by Israelis in the last 60 years. The Israelis just don't market it as "ancient" (at least not usually
 ).
I doubt it. Many of the original systema instructors were former Soviet special forces soldiers. They probably trained in boxing since their Young Pioneer Days (Soviets emphasized boxing) and then boxed periodically in the Soviet military. Like all special Forces soldiers, they are good athelets and are probably good boxers in particular.

| I think generally most Turkic people have had some sort of wrestling style for martial arts. Like yagli gures in Turkey or kurash in Uzbekistan. I'm sure Uygurs have something similar. I think martial arts as we commonly know it is more of an oriental thing. Check out some Hui (Chinese Muslim) traditional martial arts, it's very interesting although I wouldn't know if it's practiced at all among Central Asians. |

Yoshihiro Akiyama As an MMA fighter Akiyama has also been excellent. First, he holds an overall MMA record of 10-1. Second, he's beaten upper level fighters like Denis Kang and Melvin Manhoef and regularly takes opponents down in strong judo fashion. 1. Karo Parisyan: Parisyan's overall MMA record of 18-5 tells part of the story on him. Victories over Josh Burkman, Drew Fickett, Ryo Chonan, Matt Serra, Nick Diaz, Chris Lytle, and Shonie Carter say a lot of the rest. T.K- a early UFC and Pride Judo fighter who is the only man to beat Fedor...lol CUNG LE - 6-1 with 5 KOs is a Vietnamese Sanshou champ and former Strike force middle weight champ in MMA- uses taekwondo kicks and San Shou takedowns Trains in only traditonal styles and BJJ ect ect ect... Oh and everyone in MMA practises MUAY THAI as a must know system and as you know MUAY THAI is a traditional Oriental system over 800 yrs old from Thailand. Traditonal martial arts are useless?? There sure are alot of champions whos doing it. Even Victor belfort just earned his blue belt in karate look that up! lol Your comment was ignorant- I beleive Modern MMA is more effective But that doesnt make the traditional styles useless, kuz if it was there wouldnt be 5 of the currect top ten fighters in MMA are traditional based arts with BJJ or wrestling for the ground. Anderson Silva-muay thai Machida-karate George st pire-karate Fedor-sambo/judo Muricio Rua-muay thai MMA means mixed martial arts buddy, you can use any combination of ARTS. without the traditional arts theres no modern ones. And Classical Boxing is not MODERN BOXING........LMAO go look at boxing from the before the 20th century there style was completely different. Turkic and Mongol wrestling has no GROUND fighting just throws and trips to win the bout. Actual grappling like subs and locks in MMA come mostly from BJJ VIA JUDO and jujutsu and oriental style! wreslting is used mainly for takedown and control. =] Show us one modern MMA bout where someone doesnt do a round house kick,knee,elbow or jujutsu submission? Boxing and wreslting is a major factor but no "boxer" has won a MMA title, wrestlers have in the past but not so much now. Number one combination for MMA champions is Muay thai/Jujutsu which are oriental styles.  |

When you research the personal history of Jean-Claude van Damme, the Belgian-Flemish Hollywood karate actor, you can't find his name among the recorded list of European karate champions, which he said he was, one time.
The reason is, he said, his real name was Jean-Claude van Varenger, or something like that. The surname 'van Damme' was, therefore, one he adopted from a past French savate champion. His name was ... Jean-Claude van Damme. ------------- History makes everything. Everything is history in the making. |

But I love JCVD's movies though. His best was, for me, the futuristic, excellently surreal 'Cyborg'. Even if it wasn't considered so by many. ------------- History makes everything. Everything is history in the making. |

steppe peoples of martial arts is not wrestling, do not say wrestling, martial arts is not is a sport, in recent days Sayokan something called out, although the martial art of kung-fu and taekwondo's mixture made up something that was understood,Steppe's death penalty is everything ------------- DO NOT SCORN A WEAK CUB HE MAY BECOME THE BRUTAL TIGER |

The turks as well as the Persians were famous for wrestling
BTW I like Fedor--but he isn't the best right now--Maybe 2 years ago

I want to tell something about this topic, also if the last communication was years ago :) Uygur Turks and also other Turks was warrior and the important think ist, that they was nomad, so there was not any shool to learn to fight or be a warrior like the chinese or other people which lives in place like city etc... nomad lives in the natur like shaman in usa. they was good hunter and was working very hard. this makes the peoples strong, with a lot of condition, good hors rider, catcher etc... this live builds a people which was born to be fight. they have a lot of natural instinct like animals, strong like a bear, fast like a panther (or a kaplan like me :))) i think, every body knows what i want to tell. the old turks from xiung-nu was not a soldiar, it was one man fighter, which comes together to fight which china, or with togeter (crazy but it's true). this is the casue, why the histroy of the turk peoples does not have any sorces of martial arts like books or sript ect... at this time, there is a lot of turkish martial arts builded from turkey... like sanyokan etc... but all of this builds to japanes or chinese martial arts technique or it's a fiction with some strange inventions. the martial arts of turks are wresting, and this come in different stil, with oel or what ever. you meet here about the martial arts name AMAROK. this is the only one, which is build on the reallity of old turk, because there is no documents about old turks fighting sistem. at first, AMAROK is not ata mengü arzak oguz köresi.... it's alpagutnung mengü azrak oguz köresi. i want to translate it... alpagut is an old warrior, which was a one man armee which i told before. mengü is forever or better to say deathlessly... az rak is very rare... oghuz means not the oghuz turks... oghuz was also in the old turks mitology a GOD... köresi is wrestling or in the old language it means fighting... so oghuz köresi is the martial arts of god oghuz. this is the right translation of AMAROK and the founder of this martial arts system is Grandmaster Hakan Haslaman, which have build this sistem at the year of 1995. you can check this on his website www.amarok.net i meet with him last month and he told me that all. i think it makes a lot of sense which have also seriosity like other turks fighting. |

Any suggestions? |
