How about this wonderful old clip of what is obviously a staged show of savate.

Pretty Pierre who packs a punch with his foot!!

Cool old clip, but as usual reading the youtube comments has dropped my IQ by many points.

More old-school savate footage. This was shot in the '60s, but Maitre Roger Lafond (who is still alive and was recently featured on the "Human Weapon" series) is a strong proponent of the classical style of savate, rather than the modern sporting form.

Includes fencing, classical savate, la canne stick fighting, la baton (long stick) and some self defence demonstrations.
