What type of unarmed combat did they engage in then?

They were never unarmed.  They engaged in close combat with swords.

I will have to create a new thread about this then as I know nothing about the Ancient Israelite military system or the swords they used. I figured maybe they had some sort of fighting system in the event they couldn't get to their sword.

I think my father said that all this guy's moves were using circular motion which is characteristic of Kung Fu so the guy has a Kung Fu martial arts style.  It takes a long time to learn Kung Fu as Karate is much easier to learn as per my father.  He says Shotokan Karate style is the easiest to learn.

Oh ok, so this is more of a scam then? Do you think it would be pointless to learn Abir?

jdl4ever:
I think that if you want to learn this fighting style for the "style" then it is indeed a scam as his "style" is simply Kung Fu (or some similar pre-existing style from Asia) and thousands of Karate Schools teach Kung Fu and the various pre-existing styles.  If you want to learn his "method" which combines spirituality with fighting then he is unique and it would be worthwhile if this is your intention since regular schools either teach simply the style alone or combining chinease/japanese/or buddhist culture with the style and none combine Judaism with the style.
