![]() | "Abracos", or the Art of hand-to hand fight, is one of the three main disciplines of unarmed combat of ancient Italy, where every technical gesture was aimed at the survival and every action, including the most brutal or harmful, was considered lawful. It was not about limiting the damage; it was about life or death. In this work we will study the main advanced principles of the technical repertoire, different techniques of the "8 skills" required, as well as a chapter devoted to the application of this Art in current contexts of self-defense. It is a new tribute of Nova Scrimia to the Italian school of weapons, to the European martial tradition and to the extensive Western culture of combat.
You will find applications and tactical defense strategic options for civilians, with percussions, liberations, breakings and endings, as well as intervention strategies for professionals with: levers, immobilizations, disarmaments and neutralizations of individuals armed with knives. A unique videotape of its kind, carried out by 13 Nova Scrimia masters and instructors that transmit us the practical knowledge of seven centuries, inherited from the school of the Italian Masters of weapons. |
