Savate ( French pronunciation: Ã, [sa'vat] ), also known as boxe franÃÆ'§aise , boxing savate , French boxing or French stomach, is a French combat sport that uses hands and feet as a weapon incorporating elements of English boxing with a graceful kicking technique.

Only leg kicks are allowed, unlike some systems like Muay Thai, which allow the use of knees or shins. Savate is the French word for "shoes or old shoes". Savate fighters wear specially designed boots. A male practitioner from savate is called a banur while a woman is called banuse.

Sejarah awal

Savate takes its name from France for "old shoes" (heavy shoes, especially boots used by the military and French sailors) ( cf. French-English loan words sabot and sabotage and allied Spanish < i> zapato ). The form of modern formalization is primarily a mixture of French street fighting techniques since the early nineteenth century. Savate is a kind of street fighting in Paris and northern France.

In the south, especially in the port of Marseille, seafarers develop a fighting style that involves high kicks and open-handed slaps. It is thought that this kicking force was developed in this way to allow fighters to use their hands to hold something for balance on the ship's rocking deck, and that kicks and slaps are used on land to avoid legal punishment for using closed fist, which is considered a lethal weapon under the law. It's known as jeu marseillais (game from Marseille), and later renamed to chausson (sandals, after the kind of shoe sailors wear). In contrast, currently in the UK (boxing house and Queensberry rule), the kick is seen as unsportsmanlike.

The traditional savate is a development of northern France, especially in the slums of Paris, and always uses heavy shoes and boots derived from potential military origin. The fight on the streets, unlike the chaussons, make low kicks, is hardly ever targeted at the crotch, and they are sent with cruel intent and bone destruction. Paris savate also features an open hand blow, in poking or hitting the palm of the hand (la baffe) or in a stunning slap targeted at the facial nerve. The savate or chausson technique is now also developed in the ports of northeastern Italy and northeastern Spain - then a savate kick named "Italian hunting" ( chasse italiane ).

The two main historical figures in the history of the transition from street fighting to modern sports savate are Michel Casseux (also known as le Pisseux) (1794-1869) and Charles Lecour (1808-1894). Casseux opened its first establishment in 1825 to practice and promote regulated versions of chaussons and savers (head bans, eye surveillance, grappling, etc.). But the sport did not shake its reputation as a street-fighting technique. Casseux's Charles Lecour was exposed to the art of English boxing when he watched the British boxing matches in France between England's Owen Swift and Jack Adams in 1838. Lecour also took part in a friendly with Swift later in the year. Lecour feels that he is in a disadvantage position, using his hands only to hit his opponent's fists, rather than hitting. He was then trained in boxing for some time before combining boxing with chausson and savate to create a sports savate (or boxe franÃÆ'§aise , as we know it today). At some point la canne and le baton , stick battles, added, and some form of fencing stick, such as la canne , usually part of the training intelligent. Those who practice purely for the competition can ignore this. Savate was professionally developed by Lecour Joseph Charlemont and later his son Charles Charlemont. Charles continued his father's work and in 1899 fought with British boxer Jerry Driscoll. He won the match with a medal ki in medal in the eighth round even though England said it was a kick to the crotch. According to the famous British referee, Bernard John Angle of the National Sporting Club, in his book My Sporting Memories (London, 1925), "Driscoll did not know what he was taking" when he agreed "To meet the Frenchman in his game own". Angle also said that, "The contest ends at Jerry count for a punch in the crotch of the French knee." He further alleges that "Timekeeper saved Charlemont several times". After the fight, Driscoll did not grudge, considering the blow was "an accident". France claimed victory for their men with a halt, following a twisting kick into Driscoll's stomach.

Savate was later codified under the National de Boxe Committee FranÃÆ'§ise under Charles Charlemont, pupil Count Pierre Baruzy (dit Barozzi). The Count is seen as the father of the modern savate and was once the 11th French Champion and his colony, his first ring battle and the title before World War I. Savate de D? Focus, Saved de Rue, or "Saved de Rue" ("street savate") is the name given to combat methods that are excluded from competition-laden. The International Savate Federation (FIS) is the official world governing body of savate.

Perhaps the highest recognition of the respect of savate came in 1924 when it was included as a sports demonstration at the Olympics in Paris. In 2008, savate was recognized by the International Federation of Sports Unions (FISU) - this recognition allows savate to hold the official World University Championships; which was first held in Nantes, France in 2010. The 25th anniversary of the founding of the International Savate Federation, in March 2010, was celebrated with a visit to Lausanne, to meet with President of the International Olympic Committee Jacques Rogge. FISAV President Gilles Le Duigou is presented with a recall that depicts the Olympic Ring. In April 2010, the International Savate Federation was accepted as a member of SportAccord (formerly known as AGFIS) - a big step forward on the road to Olympic recognition.

Modern practices

Regardless of its roots, savate is a relatively safe sport to learn.

Today, savate is practiced worldwide by amateurs: from Australia to the US and from Finland to the UK. Many countries (including the United States) have national federations devoted to promoting savate.

Modern codified savers provide three levels of competition: assaut , pre-combat and combat . Assaut requires competitors to focus on their techniques while keeping in contact; the referee gives the punishment for excessive use of force. Pre-combat allows for full power battles as long as fighters wear protective equipment such as helmets and shinguards. Combat , the most intense level, same as pre-combat, but protective equipment in addition to groin and protective orifice is prohibited.

Many martial arts provide a ranking system, such as the color of the belt. Savate uses glove colors to show the level of a fighting ability (unlike art like karate , which sets new belts in each promotion, moving to higher color ratings in savate does not necessarily require changes in glove color that is, and certain fighters can continue to use the same gloves through some promotions). Students start without color.

Qualifications for the competition vary depending on the association or commission. In the French Federation yellow gloves can compete, and in Belgium green gloves can compete. In the United States, the level of competition starts in beginners (6 months). In Russia there is no requirement for the color of certain gloves to compete.

The savate rating: Boxe FranÃÆ'§ise is divided into three paths that a saver can choose from.

• Technical road: blue gloves, green gloves, red gloves, white gloves, yellow gloves, silver gloves I, silver gloves II and III silver gloves (purple gloves for those who less than 17 years)
• Competition road: bronze gloves, silver gloves I, silver gloves II, silver gloves III, silver gloves IV and silver gloves V
• Teaching lines: initiates, moniteurs and professeur

In some clubs there is also a rank of aide-moniteur, while in other associates there is no ranking of initiates. Eight to twelve years of average training is required for a student to reach professeur level; eight years in the Italian Federation, and just two years in another federation. In France, professional professionals must have a French special state teaching certificate (CQP AS, BEES 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, 1st de CCB BPJEPS, DEJEPS, DESJEPS). This diploma is a university-level education in sports with a specialization in savate (guided by FFBFSDA). However, international federations are still allowed to reward professeur instructors for non-French citizens without the need for a rigid education system. French citizens must submit to and succeed in a rigid educational system and prove themselves in competition and respected by peers, in order to have little chance of becoming a DTD. Like any sports federation in France, the French and International Voice Federation is under the control of the French Ministry of Sport and Youth. This makes the world's most powerful federations into powerful federations. Both federations follow a series of national traditions.

Currently, savate is a term that means Savate-Boxe FranÃÆ'§aise. In the 1970s the term "savate" was rarely used in France to refer to formalized sports: most people use the terms Savate boxe franÃÆ'§aise, Boxe-FranÃÆ'§ise Savate, B.F, B.F.S., S.B.F. or just boxe franÃÆ'§aise. The term savate is still used mostly outside of France or when speaking a language other than French.

The current global distribution of schools (salles) is best explained through their stylistic approach: La Savate-Boxe FranÃÆ'§aise (1980-present): technical abilities of both big kicking arms and British boxing combined into a definitive battle sport.

La Savate DÃÆ' Â © fense (1994-present): first presented by Professeur Piere Chainge was then produced into self-defense by Eric Quequet in 2000. After the French Federation unraveled Prof Change and placed Michel Leroux in charge of the formation. It is based on La Boxe FranÃÆ'§aise Savate, La Savate from the late 19th century, La Lutte Parisienne and the discipline * La canne de Combat (rod) * as well as Le BÃÆ'Â ¢ ton FranÃÆ'§ais (staff), Le Couteau (Knives), Le Poignard (dagger), La Chaise (chair) and Le Manteau (mantle).

Historical creatures have been rebuilt: some savates have been rebuilt from old textbooks, such as those written in the late nineteenth or early twentieth century. Thus, this savate form would be regarded as a historical European martial art. Re-construction of this older system may or may not be practiced by practitioners who are familiar with modern sports and are not currently likely to be very widespread.

Dress

In the official competition, competitors are wearing intÃÆ' Â © grale or vests and trousers laden. They wear boxing gloves (with or without palms) and preserved boots. Savate is the only kicking and punching style (only) to use footwear, although some other combat sports, such as Shoot Fighting and some MMA forms sometimes also wear grappling type boots/boots. Savate boots can be used to strike with the soles of the feet, upper legs, toes, or heels. Sometimes helmets can be used, for example in junior competitions and in the early round of fight bout (full contact).
