does any one know any old Basque martial art,
it goes from father to san and it is not exist for the last 60 year or so.
I also went there and ask the local, some knew that this was a secret but no one new information about it, till now I just know that they had strong feet
and they use to jump allot

Zipota is a Basque martial art similar to the french fighting style (savate). I will try to find a link later.

first of all thanks for your reply

I check about the Zipota, but it appears to be generally new, and it comes from the Savate. as far as I know this old Basque art came before the Savate.

please also send me information about the Zipota and I will
check with them as well

Thanks
