TRADITIONAL MARTIAL ARTS


Traditional Martial Arts Training

Traditional martial arts training refers to training in a martial art that is rooted in the tenets set forth by the original master of the art. Subsequent masters are chosen to carry on the traditional teachings of that particular art. Often, the traditional martial art is rooted in a country’s history.
As such, traditional martial arts training implies that a student uphold the philosophical principles of the art and practice its techniques in a fashion similar to the founder’s or in the style’s natural progression.
The lineage between students and masters is very important in traditional martial arts training. For example, Bruce Lee was a student of wing chun master Ip Man. However, he is not considered a master of the art because he was never given the title by Ip Man.

  1. WEAPONS USED IN TRADITIONAL TRAINING :

    The Agni Purana divides weapons into thrown and unthrown classes. The thrown (mukta) class includes twelve weapons altogether which come under four categories, viz.


    1.yantra-mukta: projectile weapons such as the sling or the bow.
    2.pāṇi-mukta: weapons thrown by hand such as the javelin.
    3.mukta-sandarita: weapons that are thrown and drawn back, such as the rope-spear.
    4.mantra-mukta: mythical weapons that are thrown by magic incantations (mantra), numbering 6 types.

    These were opposed to the much larger unthrown class of three categories.

    1.hasta-śastra or amukta: melee weapons that do not leave the hand, numbering twenty types.
    2.muktāmukta: weapons that can be thrown or used in-close, numbering 98 varieties.
    3.bāhu-yuddha or bhuja-yuddha: weapons of the body, i.e. unarmed fighting.
