The ancient Egyptian martial art you can learn TODAY
These days it’s known as a folk dance, but Tahtib isn’t for the faint of heart. People can get hurt in the heat of the moment, and once upon a time that was the whole point. Tahtib, according to legend, has its origins in what might have been the world’s oldest martial art.
Clips used in this video are from Daily News Egypt [] and from Modern Tahtib []
