"Crom, the Lord of the Mound, for he lives in a great mountain that bears his name. By birth, he gives us strength, bravery, will, and passion. That is all Cimmerians need. He does not hear our prayers. He does not want our worship. He does not care for our sacrifices. He will not live in our temples. He is a stern and distant god, but he troubles us not, and whenever a Cimmerian emerges bloody and victorious in battle, it is said that Crom may smile – just a little”

What is Shootfighting®?
The Ultimate Martial Art, Shootfighting® is a complete fighting system. A unique Martial Arts style in itself, Shootfighting® combines Muay Thai Kickboxing and total body Submission Grappling. Shootfighting® will also enhance any style. With its emphasis on transitions from stand-up to ground it makes both, the stand-up figher and the grappler stronger by eliminating the limitations of each. Learn to capture the victory over anyone from an experienced street fighter to a trained grappler. 90% of fights may end up on the ground, but 100% of them start standing up. Learn to do it all, train with an ISFA licensed school today!
Shootfighting® Rules! Overall, Shootfighters -- who employ a range of striking, grappling and submission tactics -- are the most successful competitors in mixed martial arts events." - Black Belt Magazine
November 1998
The martial arts/sport of Shootfighting® is a recent creation. It had its genisis less than 25 years ago when a famous German wrestler taught the art of real wrestling or "shooting", to a group of top Japanese martial artist. The wrestling they learned bore only a superficial resemblance to today’s professional wrestling. Two of these Japanese martial artist, Masami Soranaka, practitioner of karate,judo and sumo, and Yoshiaki Fujiwara, a muay thai kickboxing champion and judo expert, combined their knowledge of these diverse styles and created what has come to be known as UWF wrestling or the strong style. Official matches have been held for almost 10 years and the sport’s popularity has grown till it is now the third most popular spectator sport in Japan behind baseball and sumo. There are currently three main organizations sanctioning matches and teaching the style. Of these the oldest and largest is the Fujiwara Gumi (family) run by founder and former champion Yoshiaki Fujiwara. The current world champion of the Fujiwara Gumi is Miami’s Bart Vale, The first foreigner (American) to reach the highest levels of the sport. Vale who coined the term Shootfighting® to describe the style, combined the wrestling and muay thai techniques he learned in Japan with his experience in American karate and kickboxing to advance the sport further. He is presently attempting to promote regular matches in Florida, Michigan and California.
American martial arts legends like Bill Wallace and Joe Lewis have called Shootfighting® the ultimate fighting for self-defense. To develop the stamina and toughness necessary to compete in such a grueling sport, professionals train in Japan up to 14 hours a day. The training consists of several hours of each exercise, bag work, wrestling and kickboxing. Some of the world’s top athletes, includung former kickboxing champions and olympic wrestlers, now compete in Shootfighting®. Techniques are drawn from all the various martial arts mentioned and favor no one style. However, the top fighters are usually the most versatile, able to kick, punch or wrestle as the situation calls for. Most martial artists are drawn to Shootfighting® to learn the unique form of grappling often neglected in other systems. Takedowns combine judo with other wrestling throws. The ground work uses a variety of joint locks against all parts of the body. Most of these techniques use the entire body weight against an individual joint and devastatingly effective regardless of size. Other basic martial arts principles, such as using an opponents weight and momentum against him, also play a big part in wrestling.
Those interested in learning more about Shootfighting®, whether for self-defense or competition are encouraged to contact TeamshooT at Tracys Karate of MI the International Shootfighting® Association (ISFA) Regional Training Facility located at 44888 Heydenreich Clinton Twp. MI 48038 - 586-627-0201
