  • Movement, Space, and Identity in a Mexican Body Culture
    societies Article From the Calendar to the Flesh: Movement, Space, and Identity in a Mexican Body Culture George Jennings Cardiff School of Sport and Health Sciences, Cardiff Metropolitan University, Cardiff CF23 6XD, UK; [email protected] Received: 20 July 2018; Accepted: 9 August 2018; Published: 13 August 2018 Abstract: There are numerous ways to theorise about elements of civilisations and societies known as ‘body’, ‘movement’, or ‘physical’ cultures. Inspired by the late Henning Eichberg’s notions of multiple and continually shifting body cultures, this article explores his constant comparative (trialectic) approach via the Mexican martial art, exercise, and human development philosophy—Xilam. Situating Xilam within its historical and political context and within a triad of Mesoamerican, native, and modern martial arts, combat sports, and other physical cultures, I map this complexity through Eichberg’s triadic model of achievement, fitness, and experience sports. I then focus my analysis on the aspects of movement in space as seen in my ethnographic fieldwork in one branch of the Xilam school. Using a bare studio as the setting and my body as principle instrument, I provide an impressionist portrait of what it is like to train in Xilam within a communal dance hall (space) and typical class session of two hours (time) and to form and express warrior identity from it. This article displays the techniques; gestures and bodily symbols that encapsulate the essence of the Xilam body culture, calling for a way to theorise from not just from and on the body but also across body cultures. Keywords: body cultures; comparative analysis; Eichberg; ethnography; games; martial arts; Mexico; physical culture; space; theory 1.

  • BA SHI – the Eight Basic Stances the Foundation of Kung Fu by Richard Miller
    BA SHI – The Eight Basic Stances The Foundation of Kung Fu By Richard Miller Kung fu (hard work and dedication to a skill over a long period of time), wu shu (martial art), guo shu (Chinese martial art), and ji ji (fighting technique) are all terms frequently used to mean Chinese mar- tial arts. Two terms not so often heard are bai da (bare hand fighting) and chuan yong (possession of brave spirit and martial technique). In Northern China an additional term, ba shi, is used. Aside from ba shi's broad meaning, signifying martial art, is a more specialized reference: The Eight Basic Stances. Author performs deep horse stance in the Chen taiji quan lao jia form It is said that 70% of Northern Chinese kung fu is “leg,” and that 30% is “hand.” It is commonly thought that the 70% refers to kicking. This is a misconception. In fact, the 70% refers to what the Chi- nese call bu, meaning step or footwork. The ba shi is a fundamental tool in training the legs for powerful, decisive footwork. Practicing the ba shi, however, builds not only physical strength, it cultivates qi, and the instrument of mental strength: a calm, patient mind. Sifu Adam Hsu has researched the ba shi. During the more than 20 years of his own martial arts study, he has seen the ba shi taught in many different styles and by many different sifus. He has noticed that only the first six of the eight stances are standard: qi ma shi (horse-riding stance), gong jian shi (bow- and-arrow stance), xi shi (empty-leg stance), pu tui shi (low leg-stretching stance), du li shi (single-leg 1 stance), zuo pan shi (seated-on-own-twisted-leg stance).

  • The Southpaw Advantage? - Lateral Preference in Mixed Martial Arts
    The Southpaw Advantage? - Lateral Preference in Mixed Martial Arts Joseph Baker1*,Jo¨ rg Schorer2 1 School of Kinesiology and Health Science, York University, Toronto, Canada, 2 Institute of Sport Science, University of Oldenburg, Oldenburg, Germany Abstract Performers with a left-orientation have a greater likelihood of obtaining elite levels of performance in many interactive sports. This study examined whether combat stance orientation was related to skill and success in Mixed Martial Arts fighters. Data were extracted for 1468 mixed martial artists from a reliable and valid online data source. Measures included fighting stance, win percentage and an ordinal measure of skill based on number of fights. The overall analysis revealed that the fraction of fighters using a southpaw stance was greater than the fraction of left-handers in the general population, but the relationship between stance and hand-preference is not well-understood. Furthermore, t-tests found no statistically significant relationship between laterality and winning percentage, although there was a significant difference between stances for number of fights. Southpaw fighters had a greater number of fights than those using an orthodox stance. These results contribute to an expanding database on the influence of laterality on sport performance and a relatively limited database on variables associated with success in mixed martial arts.

  • Based Application System Design for Pencak Silat Movement Using Support Vector Machines (Svms)
    Proceedings of the 5th NA International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Detroit, Michigan, USA, August 10 - 14, 2020 Kinect - Based Application System Design for Pencak Silat Movement using Support Vector Machines (SVMs) Ernest Caesar Omar Syarif, Zener Sukra Lie*, Winda Astuti Automotive and Robotics Engineering Program, Computer Engineering Department BINUS ASO School of Engineering, Bina Nusantara University Jakarta 11480, Indonesia [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract Pencak Silat is an Indonesian martial art that has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage object in 2019. In the practice, it is very difficult to know the accurate movement because no one has control over the movement except with instruction from their coach. Therefore, using Kinect – based study, we developed an application that could estimate body positions compared to stored model positions. By using a skeleton stream which has vector data, we can estimate the angle between two vectors and save it as a reference for further assessment with the user model. In the classification, Support Vector Machines (SVMs) was used which the implementation was done in LabView program. This application has an accuracy rate more than 90% for performing assigned tasks. Keywords Pencak Silat, Support Vector Machine, Kinect, LabVIEW 1. Introduction Pencak Silat is one of the styles of martial arts from Indonesia that have gained traction in the international community, as we can find traces of this style in films and international competitions such as Asian Games. In general, Pencak Silat techniques consists of two important components, that is the basic techniques and the attack techniques.

  • The Practice of Pencak Silat in West Java
    The Politics of Inner Power: The Practice of Pencak Silat in West Java By Ian Douglas Wilson Ph.D. Thesis School of Asian Studies Murdoch University Western Australia 2002 Declaration This is my own account of the research and contains as its main content, work which has not been submitted for a degree at any university Signed, Ian Douglas Wilson Abstract Pencak silat is a form of martial arts indigenous to the Malay derived ethnic groups that populate mainland and island Southeast Asia. Far from being merely a form of self- defense, pencak silat is a pedagogic method that seeks to embody particular cultural and social ideals within the body of the practitioner. The history, culture and practice of pencak in West Java is the subject of this study. As a form of traditional education, a performance art, a component of ritual and community celebrations, a practical form of self-defense, a path to spiritual enlightenment, and more recently as a national and international sport, pencak silat is in many respects unique. It is both an integrative and diverse cultural practice that articulates a holistic perspective on the world centering upon the importance of the body as a psychosomatic whole. Changing socio-cultural conditions in Indonesia have produced new forms of pencak silat. Increasing government intervention in pencak silat throughout the New Order period has led to the development of nationalized versions that seek to inculcate state-approved values within the body of the practitioner. Pencak silat groups have also been mobilized for the purpose of pursuing political aims. Some practitioners have responded by looking inwards, outlining a path to self-realization framed by the powers, flows and desires found within the body itself.
