Nu Afrakan Martial Arts

Nu Afrakan Martial Arts is dedicated to preserving, teaching, and evolving Modern Afrikan, Afrikan-Diaspora, and Black American martial arts for today’s world.

This channel exists to unify people of African descent through practical self-defense, disciplined training, and cultural knowledge rooted in Afrikan history and lived experience. We explore fighting systems, techniques, and movement sciences designed for real-world application—building strength, confidence, and self-reliance.

Our mission places a special emphasis on uplifting Black men and boys, restoring pride, purpose, and responsibility through martial arts training. Strength of body, clarity of mind, and commitment to community are central to everything we teach.

This is about function, heritage, and unity—not imitation.

Train your body. Know who you are. Protect yourself and your people. 👊🏿

When I first started on YouTube, I didn’t realize how much negativity I would receive for promoting Black/Afrikan martial arts, but I do now. How do you guys handle negativity when you’re trying to do something positive?

Foot position and angles decide everything.

In this video, I break down:
• How foot angles control distance
• Passive vs aggressive opponents (and how to handle both)
• Hand placement that protects you from any attack
• Fight strategy most people never learn in class

If you’re getting touched in sparring, this is probably why.

🎥 Watch the full breakdown.
👊🏾 Train smarter. Not harder.

What I’ve learned as a Black man is that you have no friends. Yeah, you may have your boys, your crew, family even, but at the end of the day, you’re a man alone in the arena of life. No one is coming to save you when you fall. It’s up to you.
