Bartitsu Video and Resources
I first found out about Bartitsu on Bullshido’s site. I was interested simply for the historical aspect of how martial arts were applied for street scenarios during this time period. I read up on Bartitsu and revisited it this morning looking for new videos. While I’m out of the country, I’ll have extremely limited time to post so here’s the video explaining what it is. You can follow the links below to get more detail on this mixed martial art.
Bullshido’s article on Bartitsu (where I first discovered about this art). You will find more references on their article.
I can’t imagine what it must have been like to practice in those suits and ties…lol. Enjoy!
