This was a great video! I thought you did a good job of noting the key differences. I also like that you didn't make a verdict at the end, but instead letting the viewer decide for themselves.

Thank you Sir. Definitely one of the most practical, common sense filled and respectful videos I’ve seen on this subject.

Very well done video. I appreciate the fair representation of each terminology.

I train both combat sport sports, traditional MA and the self defense methods

Excellent review Grand Master. Really appreciate the time and effort you are putting in to make all these teaching videos. My children and I all watch your videos regularly as we slowly progress through the colour belt levels of TKD. Your videos really help us and complement the teachings from our local Dojang.

Really good video thankyou!

Good break down, I train for all 3 and share content covering all 3. Also, at times there's overlapping elements. One thing I do is I pressure test sparring with various levels of intensity/rules/environmental factors where I have one of either mindsets (like sometimes I spar trying to aesthetically put on a show, while discovering what parts of fancy anmal style Kung Fu I can pull off vs a resisting opponent. Unfortunately I can't do the less aesthetic animal style methods such as eye gouging. I also pressure test self defense scenarios, and spar with boxing, kickboxing, grappling, various weapons, etc). What have you focused most on in your journey, all 3, or one in particular?

Excellent Sir

I very much enjoyed this video. Thank you

Thanks that was very informative and explained very well.

After martial arts, contact sports and self-defense systems, are there more classifications?

Thank you for this video

Awesome video

Dude... This went so hard💯

good speak

Excellent video!!

Master teach us self defense. Put more videos on self defense. 5 videos is not enough

Well said. Good video!

Self defense systems are basically martial arts with little followings. And since they have a small following they try to differentiate themselves by having things popular martial arts do not focus on like verbal confrontations. Its like how anybody could start a self defense system, but if it gained a large enough following it would become a martial art in most peoples eyes. Kind of like krav maga. Having a verbal deescalation conponent would not make a martial art not a martial art. Its just that most popular martial arts focus on the physical aspect since that is the hardest part to master, since verbal deescalation would likely only take a few classes to fully understand but it would take a long time to master the physical aspects. Combat sports are just sports that involve some sort of fighting aspect. But its main focus is competition and thus will ignore certain aspects a martial art might focus on due to certain things being too dangerous for competition.

I think that all 3 are martial arts

Thia is a video a realy need it A traind Savate Tai kwon do Karate Judo BJJ. And i was thinking am i a martial artist or just a fighter. P.S im traing mma now

2:35

Great video content! Sorry for chiming in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you ever tried - Chireetler Dread Free Rule (do a google search)? It is a good one off guide for learning effective self defence moves without the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my friend Sam at very last got excellent results with it.

So basically, Martial art=way of life Combat sport= fighting for points Self defense=kinda self explanatory

Donato! Lets make its straight if i fast like a viper and you do not expect a fight i can still punch you in the face KO! LoL .................Anyway when can i see you at the ice rink?
