Learn Cimande Golok/ Machete! Watch until the end for partner applications. This is a quick form I put together for class exploring our Jurus Cimande (entries, blocks, breaks etc) with the blade to dig into applications. It’s important to explore all material you have for ideas and drills. With live blade training you want to take the time to explore what you are capable of doing and what needs modifying. Be safe.

Responding to the initial attack with a knife. This requires a lot of training when you start with your hands down and there is no telegraph. Train to angle, cover and control. Then drill it until it’s a habit. Learn more about CCS Silat at learnsilat.net

Applications and solo flow with parang/ machete. This is one of my favorite aspects of the art. Be fluid, erratic, deceptive, unpredictable. Learn every possible way to cut with each area of the blade and what works best for you. Learn to bring the blade off of the body for power. Stay in motion so your blade hand doesn’t become a target.

Let’s learn Silat footwork for multiple attackers. This method is called Jurus on the Cross. Basically intentionally training in 4 directions. We use our Jurus/ blocks/ entries but you can use whatever you want. Footwork is optional as well but this is a place to begin. Keep moving, understand who can reach you and who can’t. Don’t be predictable. Use indirect vision to confuse opponents, and don’t keep your head still. Become a hard target to find by staying erratic. For more information visit LEARNSILAT.NET

Let’s learn a few Silat postures for combat. Fighting stances are so important but are often overlooked. Having a home base for your hands means cover and options. All the options trained out of them are available without thinking. This is why it’s important. Against multiple attackers you have to understand what you position means in all 4 directions and to all attackers. Cover against one might be a great big opening to another. Train them, see what they offer in each direction. Having multiple options to cover at multiple ranges is key. Long range stances at close range are how you get ☠️.
