from youtube description:

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">This is a Yemenite Israeli doing "Abir," (Knight, & acronym for religious verses) an ancient Yemenite martial art. He is speaking heavily inflected Hebrew.

He uses Chi-Gong and Tai Chi-like movements, which he says have been handed down for centuries, and copy the shapes of the letters of the Hebrew alphabet.

Lessons begin on a mystical, spiritual note with Jewish prayers. The turban and side curls are traditional Yemenite. This ain't your usual bagels and lox Judaism...

Ninjew?

who knows.

Interesting style, given it is modeled after the letters of the alphabet.

Makes me wonder if sequences spell passages of Scripture.

Anyone familiar with Martial Art history have a take on this?
 
Re: For all you Martial Artists- Jewdo?

Interesting style. I'd love to see a match against this and shaolin kung-fu or perhaps wah lum tam tui.

I actually trained with a few individuals in this video:

Absolutely...no doubt in my mind, from the front or back Maser would handle him just....hey ...wait...are you talkin about fighting? Nah I don't think so.

He'd whack him upside the head with one of his loaded diapers and that would be that.
