The purpose of MartialArtsUnderground.com
is to showcase what the website feels are pure demonstrations and tests of
martial arts. They have a love for martial artists testing themselves and
each individual’s expression of their chosen martial art. They believe that no two people will express
their art in an identical fashion and they attempt to with videos display what
they see as true, realistic, and functional displays of martial arts.
The videos that are posted on
Martialartsunderground.com are handpicked and display what is felt is a true
uncompromised representation of the style that the video displays. On the
website there are many of videos posted that are listed as style vs style. However, Martialartsunderground.com believes
wholeheartedly that it is never a case of which style is better, as they
believe that there is no “best style”.
There is only, the style that fits that particular person best. The videos posted serve as a display of a
very good representation of two stylists testing their skills against a live
resisting opponent. This type of testing, while it is not the only reason
for martial arts, will go on to further styles and martial arts as a whole
through the testing of theories and the application of principles. They believe that realistic applications of
techniques will continue to improve all martial arts and keep them functional
and alive.
There are also many videos posted
that display martial artists utilizing their styles in real world self-defense
situations. Many of those videos will
display people utilizing martial arts to defend themselves or others in a way
that is consistent with the true purpose of martial arts which is
self-preservation. In those videos you
will be able to observe clear techniques that you will be able to identify as
having been trained in a school or gym.
These videos are posted to help reinforce and provide confidence that
techniques learned and trained in martial arts are real and work in real
settings by real people.
Martialartsudergroud.com also posts
videos containing basic techniques and combinations of various martial
arts. It is felt that you cannot have
martial arts without basics, just as you cannot have a house without a
foundation. So, there are any videos
posted showcasing sound basics and fundamental techniques of styles to watch,
learn, and enjoy. As well as
applications of the techniques found in the forms of traditional martial arts
