Antonio Graceffo is impressed with the precision of Savate Master Dominique Fontanarosas kicks. He can literally place kicks anywhere on his opponents body. He can kick slowly, touch, and hold the position. Savate is a sport of precision, strategy and science. Savate would be a devastating background for anyone wishing to compete in kickboxing or MMA. Linguist and boxer Christophe Clugston makes a brief cameo appearance in this episode. And Jeet Kune Do practitioner, Greg Unno spars with Antonio.

Muay Thai Chaiya is a fascinating fighting system deeply rooted in the martial traditions of ancient Thailand. Host, Brooklyn Monk, Antonio Graceffo studies with Kru Lek, one of Thailands leading practitioners of this effective art. Chaiya uses a low stance, bare knuckles, elbows and knees out, like a prickly pineapple waiting to impale the opponent when he moves in. the movement and position of the Chaiya fighter is so different from any other stand up fighting art that it completely takes the opponent out of his game. Antonio was barely able to do anything against a Chaiya student who had only six months of experience. The bulk of Kru Leks students are normal people who practice for fun, culture, and fitness. But some chose to fight in the professional Muay Thai ring, and they do extremely well. Unlike sport Muay Thai, Chaiya is taught from the ground up, similar to a traditional martial art, such as Karate or Tae Kwan Do. A student could walk in off the street, with previous martial arts experience and begin learning the basics from an instructor.

http://milkandhoneymovie.com We have left our jobs and are currently traveling the world. On July 24th 2010, we happened to be in New Orleans, Louisiana (NOLA). We went to a local gym and met two very interesting female Mixed Martial Arts fighters, Amanda Lauland and Ginger LeBlanc. We asked them to share their stories with us. They gave us insight into how Hurricane Katrina has affected the personality of NOLA and left behind a fighting spirit amongst the people. This is our submission for YouTube’s Life in a Day.

Here’s my little girl doing mixed martial arts. Give her a break.. she’s only a white belt with a little bit of training from me.

Quote:

“She has to train, at least in submissions,” Pulver said. “Because think about the rape position. What position is that? Oh, you’re in my guard. Think about the sport of jiu-jitsu. It’s supposed to be a weaker, smaller person fending off a bigger, stronger person, so, absolutely, my daughter has to train.”
