What is the best martial art for a pirate?
>>205063Assuming we’re talking about historical pirates and close quarters fighting on a ship, I would say probably judo or Muay Thai. I feel like the throws in judo and kicks in Muay Thai would allow you to put people into the water off the ship. Then in really close quarters, being able to throw elbows and knees while doing work in the clinch would serve you well.
>>205063Savate.>developed by sailors>kicking form leaves hands open to grabbing parts of the ship for balanceThrow in weapons training and I dunno, sumo for throwing people overboard and you've got a solid pirate system.
Anything with oil checks.So you can plunder booty.
>>205063Fencing
>>205063bash with cudgel
