Modern Martial Arts: Jiu-Jitsu, Krav Maga & Kenpo

Did you know that the self-defense techniques found in many of today’s most popular martial arts such as Krav Maga and Jiu-Jitsu were derived from traditional Kung-Fu systems like Choy Li Fut? Modern systems of martial arts aim to distill the self-defense knowledge of traditional Kung-Fu in order to adapt them to the needs of today.

However, systems like Krav Maga, Kenpo, and even Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu often leave out important techniques and practices found in traditional Kung-Fu that are essential in producing a well rounded and fully capable martial artist. For example, how would a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or submission grappler handle a multiple person attack or an armed assailant? Would the Muay Thai Kickboxing, Karate, or Boxing student be comfortable fighting on the ground, or would he or she be helpless to stop a submission grappler? Food for thought, or yet another reason to train at White Dragon?
