Not Your Ordinary Leg Warmers: The 80's Kickboxing Revolution
Summary
Kickboxing, in its various forms, has been practiced for thousands of years. However, the modern sport of kickboxing as we recognize it today emerged in the 1960s. This development was a response to martial artists growing frustrated with the strict rules governing traditional martial arts tournaments. As martial arts films like "Fists of Fury" and "Enter the Dragon" gained popularity, so did the appeal of kickboxing, leading to its rise in both film and television. This growth sparked increased interest in kickboxing schools and the emergence of kickboxing videos, which cater to fitness enthusiasts and aspiring martial artists alike.
The Evolution of Kickboxing
Kickboxing, a dynamic martial art, has ancient roots. It officially branched out into its own sport in the 1960s when martial artists sought more flexibility than traditional martial arts allowed. The popularity of martial arts films at the time played a significant role in kickboxing’s rise. Iconic movies, such as "Fists of Fury" and "Enter the Dragon," captivated audiences, paving the way for martial arts to feature prominently in mainstream media.
As interest in martial arts soared, televised kickboxing tournaments and TV series with stars like Chuck Norris and David Carradine attracted even larger audiences. With growing public enthusiasm, kickboxing schools began to multiply, drawing people interested in self-defense, fitness, and the spiritual discipline inherent in martial arts.
Kickboxing Enters the Video Era
With the advent of home video and DVD, it was inevitable that kickboxing would become accessible through a new medium: the kickboxing workout video. These videos cater to a wide range of fitness levels and interests, featuring everything from celebrity trainers to martial arts experts.
There is a vast array of styles available. Whether you prefer fat-burning workouts incorporating squats, punches, jabs, and kicks, or you enjoy a cardio session with rapid kicks and powerful punches, there's a kickboxing video for you. The immensely popular Tae Bo workouts also exemplified this trend, transforming the exercise landscape.
Most of these videos offer 45-60 minute sessions, with 30-minute workouts being common. Shorter options are also available for those on tight schedules, featuring 10 to 15-minute workouts. Additionally, some videos focus on improving flexibility, accuracy, and even the meditative aspects of martial arts training, all set to energetic music that keeps you moving.
Choosing the Right Video
Kickboxing videos serve different purposes. They can supplement your home practice between classes, or give you a taste of what a more formal course might offer. Whether you're looking to purchase these videos at local shops, order them online, or buy them directly from kickboxing schools, they present an excellent way to engage with the sport at your convenience.
In conclusion, the world of kickboxing has evolved remarkably, aided by the popularity of martial arts in media. Whether for fitness, discipline, or the thrill of a new challenge, kickboxing videos offer an accessible and enjoyable way to explore this dynamic martial art.
