The author confirmes that from 2010 there is a permanent increase in its popularity, which can be explained by several facts. First of all, Horting correlates with all modern requirements and represents a new direction of mixed martial arts, providing a comprehensive development of the athlete on all key parameters (physical qualities: strength, speed, endurance, flexibility, etc., moral and volitional qualities: perseverance, dedication, discipline, justice, etc.); it is sensitive to changes in public mind; its interests are focused mostly on youth and that is very important; it cultivates attention to the individual, taking into account not only the needs of bodily perfection, but also internal desires and aspirations.
