African martial arts are incredibly interesting. I love the balance that many strike between ceremony and culture, and then just pure, brutal utility.
It would be amazing to see African MA get more exposure in the world.
Thanks for sharing this video. Very well done.
Nice to see E’ngolo on the list as someone with Angolan ancestry I hope to one day learn it
This is BRUTAL MMA!!!
@inside fighting.
Also check out, musangwe a form of bare knuckle boxing practice by the Venda people that native to south Africa.
No gi
It’s sad how little people know about Africa, Especially about its Martial Arts, which goes back thousands of years.
Hundreds of years old? I bet some of these are thousands of years old.
The intro is my favorite on YouTube 😂😂😂
People think Deontay Wilder's punches are sloppy, but in actuality, he's a master of the ancient African martial art of Dambe.
Nice vid
Here are some suggestions for other African Martial Arts to do a video about:
Nigerian (Hausa) Dambe
Malagasy Martial Arts – Moraingy and Diamanga (Diamanga is a style that has sticks and kicks. No punching)
Moringue of Renuion (similar to Malagasy Moraingy but more playful and has more capoeira influence)
El Matrag of Algeria (and some parts of Morocco)
Nuba Wrestling of Sudan (in fact many Nilo-Saharans like the Nilotes of South Sudan and Bantus that are mixed with Nilo-Saharans love traditional folk wrestling)
Was curious about this . Thanks
Great video! Thank you for exposing the world to African combat systems. You didn't have to do it but I appreciate you doing it
Great info 👍🏼 I want to suggest Shorinji kenpo as future of yr video, curious about yr thought on that ma
No Dambe?!
Brotha the ngolo you played is not REAL ngolo. Ngolo of Angola looks very different though the techniques look similar. They don’t have a ginga like that. Most of what you played were Afro centric arts where it is a recreation of those arts not the real deal.
Here is what engolo really looks like:

Nice work as always.
Tell me more African martial arts lost to time and posterity then there are martial arts in the world.
The first fighting style reminds me of the slap boxing we did as kids mixed with folk wrestling.
Tai chi is
Is also African Egyptian Past down to China and thank you sir now I know what MMA came from but also this is the like the original Capra that’s insane
When will the RAID video be delivered?
😎Thankyou for the info!🍃🍵🍃🌅
How do you spell each One of these martial arts? I’m dyslexic I can’t. Do it and Google Subtitles aren’t working please help
Thanks again for showcasing African arts. There's a Senegalese wrestler who has made his way into ONE Championship and has had a good bit of success. He lost one recently – got ko'd, and definitely needs to build up his striking and defense. His wrestling though, has been impeccable.
I love how globally sound your channel is when it comes to exploring martial arts across the planet!
Hi can you please help me list down the names of those 3 martial arts here as it's not shown in the video. Thank you.
You should Interview Damon Stith of the Hama (Historical African Martial Arts)
Great video as always… As your resident Capoeira Angola practitioner and commenter, I recommend the book "Fighting for Honor" by TJ Obi. I think the footage you shared is from the NEO-angola movement. I honestly don't know much about them, but It appears that they have merged some asian/kungfu concepts into their art but it's missing some key concepts or any development of the low game. But a while back I found footage of some guys playing a traditional ngolo game that seemed more legit and If I find it again I'll forward it to you. But in was like Capoeira Angola, stripped down to only the low inside game and its inverted movements. It used the same strategy of repositioning, circling around opponents, a tighter inside range, and body postures with both players keeping their hands to the ground. Sidenote, there is a huge movement of Capoeira Angola in the US, so I can point you in the right direction if you want to go down that rabbit hole.
Following this channel is mandatory if you're an open minded martial artist ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I did some capoeira Angola backwhen i lived up northeast of state with my brazilians/cape verdian/Portuguese friends, the footwork in Angola is in silat too. Depending what style of Silat tho. The two style I learn the basic of FMA was from Yan yaw and a Baniko system/Moors. I wish I stay to learn more about FMA when I was in the Philippines but time flies when you work and travel.
Your channel is considered one of the best channels and one of the best channels specialized in the world of martial arts. You inspire us in all your distinguished and interesting topics.
great video, as always
Time stamps would have been great for this video. Particularly as I kept forgetting what the names of the martial arts are and I would like to research them some more possibly.
good explanation video ^^
Thank you for giving Africa its props for being the originator of what became modern day capoeira. A lot people try to take that credit away
What's great about all these international styles is it helps us understand that ALL fighting is just physics and biology in the end . Put enough people on a remote island with limited resources and in time, they will develop a practical, functional fighting system. You figure out what hurts, what cripples , how to bend things the wrong way and its going to look a lot like something clear across the world.
In Nigeria there's several like, langa and dambe
Great video teacher!, your consideration about almost no one commenting on African martial arts is correct, in fact Africa practically influenced the whole world not only in martial arts but also in other elements of world culture. The first forms of combat emerged with the ancient Nubian civilization that influenced ancient Egypt, so we can see drawings on ancient Egyptian monuments of forms of fighting such as wersteeling and even strikes. The Greeks simply had contact with the Egyptian civilization and created Pankration.
Id love history of Korean four square of martial arts.
Look into Morengy a Madagascar Kick Boxing reminds people of Muay Thai but it's been around since like the 1600's I believe
Awesome another system to checkout NGuni it's the Zulu, and Xhosa. stick,club,spear and shield fighting system. It's actually what Shaka Zulu used to fight the British
They get drug tested??
Please review Basotho and Zulu stick fighting, much love from South Africa❤
😎Kalaripayyatu is a rare Indian Martial Art that I don't know much about.If you have knowledge I would love for you to do a video on its strengths and weaknesses!🍃🍵🍃🌅🍃
Nice video, you should look up moraingy
Awesome video! Once again!
Joe Rogan should reply this one because he has bin talking about fighting on a big open field for years.
Keep up the good work, ❤ from the Netherlands
The last is very similar in theory to some historical European martial arts, Spada e Cappa and Daga e Cappa, which are Sword and Cape and Dagger and Cape, respectively, where for defense one would whip off one's cape and wrap it around the other forearm for defense. Nice to see it used in other traditions.
Wow thank you
You should check out Zulu stick fighting
Bokator is very musical aswell, I'm sure if you covered that martial art.
Another great video! Great timing as I just ran into some tutorials of African martial arts in my feed for the first time last week!
Thanks!
