Howdy to All,
We’re getting close to the vision I had when beginning the official Distance Learning Program back in the 1980s. The first hurdle was to codify the forms, which was no simple matter for more reasons than I care to enumerate.I guess I’m not going to get into the hurdles, but rather concentrate on the opportunities that a program lik…[Read more]

As part of the evolving KunTao Silat learning system, we are endeavouring to provide meaningful names for the movements, elements, strategies, energies, and various aspects of KunTao Silat.
If you want to know what something is called, please notate the time code and the link to the KTS video where it is found.
I will cut out that video and…[Read more]

Steve replied to the topic Hips/Pelvis vs Waist turning to generate power in the forum Seasoned Practitioners 8 years, 8 months ago
The first method we show is the silat method, where although there is not as much power generated in the turning motion, the turning motion itself becomes the energy for the throw while the interaction of your legs moving against your opponent’s creates the displante. The hitting power then combines with the energy of the throw to dispatch the…[Read more]

Christopher replied to the topic Hips/Pelvis vs Waist turning to generate power in the forum Seasoned Practitioners 8 years, 8 months ago
The way I understood the videos was that hip power is built into the pivoting movements, but waist turning and whip power are present in the internal movement later in tape 1, and in the waist-turning in the first stance.
So far I’ve interpreted it that there’s turning power with the pivoting of feet, spring power from the coiled stances (djuru…[Read more]

I’ve gone back and forth about this issue for years. Serak is a great martial art, and for some people it is ideal.
Malabar KTS is based upon the teachings of Willem de Thouars, so it would seem most appropriate to include Serak somewhere in Malabar. Paul & Victor de Thouars claim that Serak is completely Indonesian with no influence from…[Read more]

Joe,
Thank you again for your time and consideration.
I have no doubt you’re a lot more knowledgeable and have a lot more first-hand experience with this than I do.I also understand there is no way to ‘unload’ a question like how much is adequate training for the average man.
