[QUOTE="andresegarra, post: 3148166, member: 137176"] Gah, I hate the complete misinformation about western martial arts. Western martial arts are extremely detailed and complex. They include locks, throws, strikes and kicks. In fact they include everything found in eastern martial arts. The problem is that nobody bothered to research them until very recently. So it's just down to publicity. The earliest western treatise we have is I.33 from 1290. Next is the Longsword of Johannes Leitchenauer 1390. From then on in we have alot more information. If you look up the groups in the British Federation of Historical Swordsmanship. You'll find practically every western martial art research that is underway. Europe was in a state of perpetual war since the end of the Roman empire. The arts that formed are possibly the most tested anywhere in the world. The Bear. [/QUOTE]
