Hmmm, its hard to give feedback, because in reality you really didnt do much.

This isnt supposed to be offensive, but there wasnt much to see. It's not as if you were actually fighting someone, or hitting a bag, or doing footwork drills, or flow drills, hitting pads, rolling, uchikomi.

It was just you versus the air.

Once again this isnt supposed to put you down, but what kinda feedback are you looking for?

The only thing I got from that is you can do some fancy moves with some weapons, with no sword type training (bit of stick fighting), I could do all the moves you did with the Katana, the bo and the nunchuk, not so much, but, never practiced with those. It really looked alot more like a show, and a demonstration than anything that could be considered MARTIAL.

If thats what your going for its cool and all, but I dont know.

I don't know in what context you want the feedback? As a martial artist? As a film maker? As a fighter?

Here's some thoughts.

You've worked hard with those weapons skills, and it looks fairly impressive. But twirling these things in thin air is nothing like fighting someone with them.

Filming in your bedroom is a bit geeky, and smashing that light at the end is a bit ridiculous! Sorry!

Those kicks need a lot more work. You look a little like a flexible teengaer throwing his limbs about, instead of a skilled kicker.

What were those moves involving you clasping your hands together? Try that on someone who knows what they are doing and you'll get battered half to death.

But I enjoyed watching it. You have some good skills. I just don't know where your goals are?

You need to take some formal training, but look good with the nunchucks, for self taught youre off to a good start. Learn some brazilian jiu jitsu, carry the nunchucks with you, and the sword in the car, and you shouldnt have any problems.
Seriously with all the self taught effort you'd be a black belt in regular karate by now but prolly still a white in BJJ (hard to advance there) . BUt i liked the video in any event.

Might want to check your spelling in the disclaimer.

[Mephariel]

I am not impressed by any of it. A lot of those weapons form looks sloppy.

[Batucada]

At least the young man is trying; he just needs some guidance.
Good luck.

It is apparent that you may be self taught simply by your balance on exit from several techniques and finer points of your foot work throughout. All in all you have great potential and with a good instructor you could potentially be a good even great martial artist... however you will not get as much positive feedback on the MMA forum as you might have liked. Good start on the video as well, I enjoyed watching it...

I agree, get yourself a good teacher/coach and keep training

I think if you are going to film videos in your bedroom you should at least make your bed!

[EmptyneSs]

or make a porno.

I have to agree with Bruce and Empty. Porn or make the bed, one or the other





Although, upon reviewing your user name...

[traveller]

I don't want to be harsh, as gregimotis has already hit you where it hurts.
But you want feedback so here it is. Get some formal training.
Especially in the swordwork department if you are ever going to use a naked blade.
Your footwork looked awkward throughout.
On the other hand as already posted you obviously are making some serious effort with this so why waste it.
And props for even showing the video to this crowd. They could have a guy like Bruce Lee wondering if he had what it takes.

maybe he did both thats why the camera and thats why the bed is messed up, he felt so good after bustin nuts over some chicks face that he pulled out the nunchucks, you mean, you havent done that a hundred times?

I liked the video, i thought was entertaining with all the Nun-chuck and staff/sword tricks. But the part when you locked your hands and started high kicking and swinging your elbows(for a second i thought you were gonna fall down), what the hell was that???

Your video had little to do with martial arts. Why dont you at least get a punching bag and a pair of boxing gloves? Better yet, join a real Kickboxing, Boxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, or Mixed Martial Arts gym. What youre doing is not going to help you fight or deal with a situation where you need to use force. Stop living in fantasy land and train at a real martial arts school.

Oh yeah, you might want to check your spelling(What's a groan?).
