For all you victorian boxing, training, self defence and bare knuckle boxing fans out there at @DanOldSkoolConditioningMan . It's time for us to take another step along our fighting fitness journey learning Edward William Barton-Wrights New Art of Self Defence. Bartitsu, the victorian self defence training system and the first true mixed martial art of the modern age.
In this episode of the batitsu project we get back to boxing and savate of the late victorian and edwardian era. This time we take our first look at the forgotten knowledge of pugilism and that is how to fight bare knuckle boxing and what we can learn about it from boxers and boxing training of the victorian era.
After all, bare knuckle boxing for self defence is something we need to learn for our study of bartitsu as this is how the bartitsu practioner would have used his Boxing skills.
What discuss in this victorian boxing video is how the victorian boxers landed punches as opposed to how modern boxers land punches. How to form the fist. What knuckles we need to land our punches on safely so that we don't beak bones in our hands and how to structure the arm for punching bare knuckle so that the force of impact is absorbed by the mass of the arm and shoulder and not in the punching hand alone.
We also discuss famous boxers that wrote books on boxing and what they said about boxing and punching bare knuckle and what we can learn from them.
We also start to take our first step into punching bare knuckle boxing training by punching onto the heavy boxing punch bag wit just our bare hands.
Boxing training has always been a huge part of my unconventional strength and fitness lifestyle. Boxing training is a great way to workout and provides fantastic physical fitness training and functional fitness workouts. So why not come and join me as I work my way through my victorian martial arts training and boxing journey recreating bartitsu in its original style and experience hat it was like to train Edward William Barton-Wrights New Art of Self Defence at the Bartitsu School of Arms and Physical Culture as a victorian beginner.
