Pencak Silat West Sumatra Singo Barantai
Look at the space these guys are working in... Low kicks only right?
Kuciang Lia knife fight Pauh Pencak Silat
Good Sumatran silat system. This is obviously just training so it's a treat to be able to see it on the web.
Tari Piring Kubu Durian (Pencak Silat)
Plate dance for those who haven't seen it. There are different ones with different moves including walking on plates while manipulating plates in your hands.
Silat Ropers system
No non-sense. I believe the Guru Frank Ropers is from the Joussot line of Setia Hati Terate.
Otai Silat Pulut
Not a great video but still if you are watching the movement you can see things of interest, not to mention the general movement style.
Harimau pencak silat
I had the pleasure of going to a seminar with MaHa Guru DeBordes a month or so ago and he was great. Mostly a very nice man, very intense, but a pleasure to be around. Not too hung up on formality of technique as much as spirit.

Of course, we finished at around 830pm and everyone was pretty tired but that's not too bad considering no one had eaten dinner yet. We all went to our respective abodes and showered up and a portion of us met for dinner. It was great fun and people got to see the similarities between the movements and also I showed how it could be fit together depending on the situation.
Saturday everyone was sore AND it was raining hard so we worked under a pavilion during the early part of the day.
We started with:
Gerak
Sikap Pasang
Led by Pelatih Bill Dwyer.
Then we went into the Jurus-jurus Tangan, Jurus-jurus Harimau (for Pelatih Bill), and Jurus-jurus Kombinasi for those who were interested. It was great fun to show the movements of the jurus-jurus come alive from yesterday's training and to show a few pounds of applications from just a few movements.
Again we finished around 830p or so. Got cleaned up and went out for dinner. It was a great time with good conversations and lots of friendships being developed.
Sunday we continued on throwing on top of the jurus the basic movements of golok/stick, how the Ales and Masukan might work against an armed assailant, how we might use them with a weapon ourselves, and how to do the jurus-jurus with a weapon. Then I went on to do a few minor applications just to show the concept and build the jurus-jurus movements. Later in the day we added Ikat and explosive entries to the training.
Really, in three days, you can't ask for anything more than that, but be assured, that in years to come as people continue to develop and grow in their skills, Keluarga is going to be a great place for training with some of the best guru-silat in the U.S.
Hormat saya,
Sean
