Plan on tuning up your pencak silat. We will work on:
- PSP fundamentals
- jurus-jurus,
- harimau-monyet,
- applications - bela diri,
- understanding and doing pencak silat movement,
- connectivity of fundamentals to create techniques,
- training methods,
- weapons work,
- Explosive Entries,
- Level Testing,
- various adhoc discussions on strategy, psp, philosophy, spirituality, pencak silat, leadership, teaching, and growth.
- bonfire at Jay's
It's going to be a great three days of training to introduce people to PSP and help those who are midway and nearing the end of the general curriculum. As always, it's a great time to test. Don't wait for Keluarga, but if you can push a little to test in person is a great opportunity.
We will probably work play harder this year than in past years.
Equipment to bring:
- MMA style training gloves,
- Full face headgear,
- kicking shields,
- focus mitts,
- training and "sharps" (pisau - knives),
- Golok,
- Looped sarong

Could you post a couple of links so we are on the same page WRT 'Full face headgear' and 'Golok'. Just a picture or perhaps a recommended place to buy. Also where to get Looped sarong?
Here is a link for the headgear that looks like what I use: http://www.karatedepot.com/pr-hd-22.html
You don't have to buy it here and you don't have to buy that type if you don't want to. I like it and the price is good.
As for the Golok - think machete.
I normally carry looped sarungs but I am currently out of stock. I will try to get some more in but if not I will find you a source if you remind me on occasion.
I might just be missing it on this post, and I'm probably setting myself up for some kind of embarrassing way to have it pointed out to me, but what are the dates?
Hi Phil
No. They aren't on here. I posted them in the title on the forum and didn't put them in here though I think I mentioned them at one other time out here....
