Everyone that wants to know the truth about Niddar needs to watch these two videos. One so of Niddar demonstration and the other is of an actual martial art called Filipino Martial Arts that flows, where one movement does not require, a person to move the feet out of position. Niddar is right in the sense; much of martial arts are about foot work. But a first grade student in martial arts is taught this very simple point. Watch Niddar's foot work. It is not isolated, where each foot is in a stable position. He has to alter his feet to get in the right stance, after the first defending strike is attempted. If he does not alter his feet then he is caught off guard and the opponent can use it for their advantage. Also if you have to alter your feet position then already you have given the opponent a dominate position because you are busy trying to get into the right stance to strike a blow. If you forward the video of Niddar to 5:20 you can see what I am saying. Next point to realize is that Niddar's opponent is not coming in full stance, where legs and arms can be utilized to strike Niddar in a split second. If you watch the Filipino Martial art video the defender and opponent have proper foot work and the opponent is coming with the stance. Where legs and arms can be utilized and are not vulnerable to the point that no attack can happen. Niddar even mentions Filipino Martial Arts, but he can't even get the foot work right. Next look at the hand work of Niddar. The main point a martial art master would tell a student is to isolate your strikes. Niddar's hand movement is not isolated at all. When you isolate your hand movement, then one strike follows the next in a sequence where you disarm the opponent with each strike (movement). Furthermore feet and the knees are isolated, but are simultaneously used with the hands. Such techniques are hard to master, but an actual master has no problem completing such movements. Look at the Filipino Martial Art teacher and then watch Niddar. Niddar can't even complete this high level of movement. So how can he be referred to as a master? Next forward to 7:25. If you look at how the punch is coming straight to Niddar's neck, he cannot grab the wrist of the opponent. The movement is too fast and the only thing you can do is side step and strike with your right leg to the knee, where the opponent is lowered and then you're able to strike with your fist to the face of the opponent or with the left leg strike back of the knee to so you can get behind the opponent and strike a death blow to the throat, or deliver further strikes that can damage the spine or back of the neck. Also the student's stance is weaker than the teachers (niddar). Niddar shows a complete disorganization of his so called martial art. Furthermore Niddar cannot even demonstrate the right movement to avoid a punch. Side stepping is only a part of it. Next movement is to isolate the opponent's dominated hand and leg. This is achieved by a person, where you put the right foot directly behind your left foot and your body turns away from the opponent so the person cannot strike with the dominate leg or hand. But your face is still turned toward the opponent. If the person leans in to strike, then he is off balance and you can use knee strikes or your foot to strike a heavy blow to the kidney area or the gut. There is a lot more mistakes in Niddar's so called martial art, but I'll save it for another time and Niddar doesn't have the fundamental teachings (stance, foot work, and isolated strikes) of martial arts corrected, which creates the disorgnization and anything described afterwards is all talk. Anyways here is the video that show FMA to be in control of defender and the opponent and the other guy (Niddar) who is just making things up as he goes. http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150387065245001&oid=26608290120
