LONG STICK: Tahtib

http://www.tahtib.com/



A group of martial arts experts based in Paris delivers Tahtib sessions and presentations.
4000 years ago, as described in Beni Hassan tombs, tahtib was developed by Egyptians to win against the persian invaders' swords.
How could sticks win against swords? A higher mastery of space, time, center ?
As in Japanese (Budo) and Chinese martial arts, Tahtib, the "mother" of all martial arts aims at human achievement.
Tahtib brings unique dimensions particulary thru rythm and group practice.
