Other ancient martial arts sites

[Benjamin Parker]

Does anyone know of any other site(s) that are like A.R.M.A but focus on earlier martial arts and weapons? and the site is reliable?

[CalebChow]

Not entirely sure how early they go, but Scott Rodell deals with historical Chinese swordsmanship that, like ARMA, is focusing into the practical and actual combat of the martial arts as opposed to performance and sport like how eastern martial arts has largely become.

This is their forum website:

I think ARMA had a meeting with him and had some pretty neat experiences...I'll try to find where I saw that on the ARMA site...

As for WMA sites dedicated to even earlier periods than ARMA deals with...I really don't know, sorry

That mentions a fight between Stewart Feil and Scott Rodell, longsword vs. Jian...? I REALLY REALLY want to see that video! Could anyone scare it up?

Stew has the video.

Thanks, but I can't seem to find Stew's contact info. Could anyone help me find it? Thanks again!

I'd like to see it too if possible.
