CANADA: Bartitsu in Vancouver

BARTITSU STEAL FROM SAVATE TERMINOLOGY AND TECHNIQUES. NOW IT SPREADS ALSO TO VANCOUVER, CANADA. IT IS BETTER ORGANISED THAN ALL SAVATE IN CANADA. AND IT LOOKS STUPID TOO. SORRY BUT THIS IS JUST MY "COMPETING" POINT OF VIEW.

A demonstration of Bartitsu used against multiple assailants. Many different skills from this Victorian martial art are in evidence, including walking stick, pugilism, savate and jujitsu. Visit AcademieDuello.com for more information and to sign up for our ongoing Bartitsu program.

Was it stealing when Lecour brought the techniques of English boxing in to savate during the 1830s? Surely this is how syncretic styles always develop, by combining techniques ...

SAVATE is recognised Sportaccord - so called sport brand. Please don't use it.

You better use kick - fisting terminology.
Savate as a sport brand has its name and its own terminology.

But if you invent something new and if Sportaccord or IOC recognise your creation - than you are free to use it.
