Tire machèt
text:
Tire machèt is a Haitian martial art; a form of fencing with machetes. The origin of the practice lies in the Haitian Revolution of 1791-1804, in which rebel slaves, many armed only with the machetes they had used to cut sugarcane, defeated the French colonial army. Tire machèt combines traditional African combat systems with elements of historical European fencing. It is traditionally practiced in secret. These secret societies inflicted punishments on fallen insiders and external enemies. Amon
