Not really related to Russian Martial Arts but I know that many with-in the Systema community have trained with James both here in the United States as well as in Russia and that many Martial Talk members only view those forums that contain the art(s) that they practice. So I thought besides in the Sword forum and the Japanese General sections I would also post a notice here in the Russian Arts forum. Moderators please feel free in deleting thread if you wish.
It should be interesting to see the strikes and throws that are based on sword movement along with the sword movement caught on high speed camera footage then slowed down to see the nuances. Discovery Channel sometimes has interesting shows so I will be interested to see how they do with this one.
Discovery Channel Time Warp Series
James has just completed two shows in the Time Warp series with Discovery Channel. They show high speed camera footage of cutting with the katana as well as throws and strikes based on sword movement in very slow motion. This allows the viewer to see minute detail in the techniques and a look into what makes these sophisticated techniques work.
Time Warp has just notified us that they will be airing the next show tonight at 8:00. If you have a chance check it out! Details below.
