On the subject of "Gypsy" or Romani combat, here's a copy of a post I made on another forum two years ago ---------------------------------------------------------------------A few months ago I posted some information on the "Dyklo" fighting I'd been shown by a New Caledonian of Romany descent, and promised to post the technique list. Well, I've just found it hidden in an old folder. Please note that I'm not at all sure of the provenance of these techniques. My informant simply said that it was a traditional form. I compiled this list after a demo session, and translated as well as I could from the original French notes. 1 - Bahtalo drom ("lucky road") - approach from behind, arms crossed so that the scarf forms a loop. Noose the enemy from the rear and turn away so that his back is pressed into yours. Crouch down and heave so that the enemy falls over your back. 2 - Drab da bavlo ("poisoned pig") - when the enemy holds you from behind, hit back quickly with your elbow to the place where his ribs meet in front. 3 - Shukar nak ("pretty nose") - with a cudgel, hit to the enemy's hand to make him drop his knife. Then hit across the nose, as you would with a hammer. 4 - Mong chavo ("the quickly fall down to cuffs. Then stand up between his legs and
beggar boy") - When a man tries to hit you, your knees and take hold of his trousers at the and heave so that he falls on to his back. Kick move away.
5 - Sara na kali ("dark Sara") - Stretch the scarf between both hands. If the enemy holds you by the collar and threatens to hit you with his fist, move quickly. Hit between his legs with your right fist and get down low. Turn so that you stand beside him, and noose him from behind. 6 - Djelem ("I went") - Holding a cudgel, wait until the enemy tries to wrest it from you. Catch his hand with your own and hit with the cudgel across his knuckles. Keep hold of his hand then hit with the cudgel across his elbow. Push him to the ground and move away quickly. 7 - Me ham matto ("I am drunk") - Make the enemy believe that you are a drunkard. Kick up between his legs and draw your scarf as he leans forward. Noose around his neck and turn away, heaving so that he falls over your leg.
