How to defend yourself with a walking cane in Bartitsu
If you want to learn Bartitsu and you have learned how to throw thrikes - This is the right video to continue. We will show you how to parry different kind of attacks and defend yourself against anothe stick or club.
But this video is not only about parries it is also about striking back - in fencing called a riposte
After you have learned the striking fundamentals for Pierre Vignys "la canne" system. The riposte will be set up by generating power over the whole body. Those powerfull strikes are very uncommon and in la canne and made Bartitsus cane fighting method unique.
Pierre Vigny was an instructor at the Bartitsu academy of martial arts and physical culture in London.
Bartitsu was a martial art designed for self-defence by Edward Barton Wright in Victorian London.His school taught different martial arts as pugilism or bare knuckle boxing, French boxing known as Savate, Jiu-Jitsu and fighting with the walking cane for Gentlemen.
Those kind of movements are described in H.G. Langs "The Walking Stick Method of Self Defence"
He himself taught canne Vigny to police forces in the 1920s.
We will demonstrate the Front guard, the body guard and the flank guard and combine it with a easy follow up attack to the head. We will also show you on a boxing mit how powerfull those strikes are.
We will have a look at that topic from a HEMA point of view. Our historical fencing background gives us insides others may not have.
Using the cane or umbrella to protect us in self defense is still a topic today. But this will be just the view cane masters of the past have on that topic.
Bartitsu got also popular as Arthur Conan Doyle let his figure Sherlock Holmes use Baritsu at the Reichenbach falls against his opponent Professor Moriarty. This makes Bartitsu so famous under Victorian or Edwardian era larper and in the Steampunkt community.
Bartitsu was not the only martial art uses the cane as a weapon, check out our other videos on that topic for example the method of Col. Monstery taught in New York city, be a cane master and join us!

Umbrella self-defense for women or Ladies & Gentlemen - using the bayonet style
zhlédnutí 916Před 14 hodinami
Self-defense in the Victorian and Edwardian era was often taught with the walking cane and the umbrella. Today the walking stick is not often in use if it is not a walking aid for seniors, veterans or other limited people, but an umbrella is often carried. Col. Thomas Monstery taught a easy to learn method of stick fighting. As a fencing master he is well educated in weapon based martial arts a...
16 Ceduta in Prima, a binding action for the Italian smallsword
zhlédnutí 649Před dnem
The parata di prima is a very good parry in sabre because you can easily cut from it. For smallsword the riposte in bind is worse, so it is not often done or even recommended but the ceding parry in prime is a very good action in the bind to avoid being hit so it has its place in classical fencing. We are not doing olympic fencing but historical fencing or HEMA, which means we follow the book "...

This style is a bit different in its body mechanics and the way using the stick with the gripping end upside down. The creator was invided to teach his style at the Bartitsu academy in London. And yes, Savate is like the sister art of la canne 😊

    To build wrist and forearms indoors go to a tool store and buy a good size hammer, engineers ball pein come in a range of weights, you can move your grip from the middle to the end of the handle to increase difficulty, its very effective and also builds small muscle co ordination of your weak side (you should train both) This co ordination is why your dominant side can punch or throw much harder than your weak side. Most people actually are almost equally strong L R but the power comes from co ordination.

      Actually not, but this exercise would infact also be done woth pikes (but not in formation) These are exercises for the Jägerstock or 'half pike' (so half a lenght from a real pike). The exercises are designed to be used against multiple opponents on a open field. Have a look at the other lessons, the footwork is not as linear as in this one 🙃. Also we are just at the beginning. There are 32 lessons with different kinds of work for the weapon as the demonstrated spanish thrusts. You may have a look at the 'featured' video to get an better image 🙂

    Now I know how this martial art might have looked. Two of the most famous Edwardian lepidopterists - A.B. Farn and F.W. Frohawk - seem to have discussed Bartitsu. Frohawk regularly walked great distances through the night and frequented a gym. Farn - who was very fit but had a badly set leg from getting run over and so was an obvious target for robbers - told Frohawk how he'd had to use an umbrella to defend himself after out-running two assailants but being run down by a third. Farn would have been in his late sixties at the time. The Luton boater, bowler, or Homburg all give significant protection to the head.

      @@andersholmstrom3571 definetely! European cane methods were based on the experience the fencingmasters had on the sabre as a striking art. Fencing as 'the' European martial art delivers the whole idea of fighting in our culture especially with weapons but also boxing for example.

    Very similar, if not the same as what i've been taught in sidesword.

      @@raptormancro I guess it depends a little bit to the old sidesword master. but since this is just drilling I could imagine. I was never deep into sidesword, what is a pitty because I like it very much (but time you know). We did more cutty rapier instead. It fits the didactics of more modern styles better. So the students could follow the training more easily 🙂

    Looks very useless - you do not even use your body to create a greater force on the impact….You will only be able hit someone once before they will close the distance and then you will be f-cked…My advice is to educate yourself on the “Dunning-Kruger effect “ and not to embarrass yourself with such videos …🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

    Oliver, thank you for a fascinating video. I used to practice Karate many years ago. I am 61 now and have to walk with a stick. However, is it possible to practice this with a wooden stick? Mine is normal really with a "T" shaped handle.
