penjak silat

Fri, 20 Mar 2009 22:54:46 GMT

Silat is a term used by the peoples of Indonesia, Malaysia and the Southern Philippines to define their indigenous methods of fighting.
Silat training approaches the spiritual, psychological and physical dimensions which are one with the course of instruction.
Silat is done by knowing, not by thinking; confirmed by doing, not by rationalizing. It conceptualizes truth, not theories.
Through experience, we discover what to consider, not consider what to discover.
Through truth, consistency and patience we begin to perceive. Then we can distinguish the evident from the hidden, the superficial from the substantial, the circumstantial from the essential of what we think, do, and become.
This is a rare opportunity to experience an art that is still taught from the original perspective. One that remains unchanged and unaffected by contemporary trends and influences.

Guru Plinck's Las Vegas Sera Workshop - August 2008

Todd — Tue, 16 Oct 2007 03:57:08 GMT

Guru Steve Plinck will be having a three day Sera seminar the second weekend of August in 2008. I realize that's a long way off, but he'd like to get the word out early so that interested people can make travel plans.

It's open to Silat players in general and Sera stylists in particular. We don't know everyone who is coming yet, but there will be participants from as far away as Italy and Scandinavia and quite a few from the Americas including (we hope) people like Guru Bob Vannata, Guru Bud Thompson and Guru Cliff Stewart. The schedule and particulars are still being worked out.
