The way I see it, you are a very good teacher bang Maul. Teaching wise, practical wise and tactical wise. May god bless you and your guru who impart these knowledge and passed it on to your students.
to clarify, the sarong is used also as a first aid kit,we say in Silat that if you fight with blades you will get cut,so the sarong is used as a tournique to stop blood flow e.g arterys,rolled into a ball to stem blood flow from stab wounds,also as a make slings for breaks,plus other uses.About the boxin vs silat there is a Malay style Tomoi Silat which is a combination system of Muay Thai and silat from the Nth Malay area,looks a lot like TonyJaa type of fightin-just to confuse you more
this has been the system of thought on fighting not just for men but for well informed countries of people that know what fighting is about for thousands of years
My father was a sergeant in the LAPD, so i can always ask him about weapon laws there. :) On the topic of Silat, absolutely. Most of those locks and other techniques are too complicated for an average attacker to counter on the spot. Most people just wouldn't know what to do when Silat is being employed. Its obscurity is one of its primary advantages in the modern world.
also its refined purity of the thousands of years behind it. An average person can train for a year and be able to defend themselves in most situations the average person encounters. It is like lego, easy to understand and quick to learn, but hard to master at the highest levels because its complexity increases as you develop your skill sets.
i am no expert by any means, but have been fortunate to have received some training in a form of silat and the blade seems to inform EVERYTHING they do. frankly that little blade scares the hell out of me in context with silat. these folks were knife fighting against larger opponents since the knife was made! when they speak on it i listen. and keep in mind, they show you what they want you to see as they were constantly infiltrated by dutch spies, etc. it's a game within a game. much respect.
i can see the others had formal training in varying martial arts. this was a great video. the guy really knows what hes doing. he is clearly no mc dojo teacher and can show even advanced people a thing or two without every part of it being staged.
bes gile brader... aku penah tgk org power macam brader tu 2 org je sbelum ni... dua2 tok guru aku... hehehe... selamat berjaya... naikkan nama silat...
Silat is an art form for the quick and total destruction of an adversary in combat. Boxing is a highly skill-based competition sport that is contradictory to any kind of contemporary fighting. Your are limited to using ONLY your fists, which is highly counter-intuitive to 'actual fighting' wherein your entire body is a weapon (fingers, fists, wrists, forearms, elbows, post-arms, shoulders, chin, head (all sides), back, torso, belly, hips, thighs, knees, shins, heels, feet--all weapons).
Master maul can u please put some videos with basic moves and how to perform it .....i really want to learn silat so much and your videos have been very helpful to me but i wish to learn it from the very begining
I like all kinds of silat the Bruneian silat suffian Bela diri ssbd the Malaysian silat seni gayong Indonesian pencak silat Filipino silat eskrima Kali arnis
@TheSilatiger :yup, sarong is a multipurpose outfit, just like batik in indonesian region.From the day a man born until his death,they always wrapped in batik in any kind of way
That was really nice! art and killing method at the same time, amazing! i myself practice Silat Gayong and i learnt lots of similarities. Silat Suffian amazes me ! Respect to you guys!
@flancka actually, Malays do dress like that in olden times. It acts like a sash for holding up the trousers, used as a towel during travels and used as a weapon in case of emergency.
Haha jgn buat malu melayu bro, dkt singapura pasti ad guru yg handal2, nama silat mngkin berbeza, tp basic dn tujuan hampir sama di nusantara..majoriti silat sama ad tiru gerakan harimau atau pn monyet..
@DjRodimusPrimeXyZ (cont.) I've studied too...since i was 7. I've done hard styles like this and i've done soft styles too. What i've learned throughout my years is that staying same position during an attack will get you hurt or killed. There NEEDS to be movement like in Jeet Kun Do, Aikido, and Kosho Ryu. To expect to be a good fighter by staying put and blocking is a pipe dream. Remember, the best self defense is ALWAYS no body contact...though your strikes have to connect to something lol
@gohstofmorrison go and see his video (I forgot the title) when he practiced how to deal with 2 opponents, youll see that he moved alot and the movement is the basic element in silat...keep browsing
Hi!. The problem with Tai Chi is that the art is very difficult, so only an advance student is able to use it fully. And the most popular styles are focused in medicine, so there remain little skilled instructors in combat aplications. I don't think is bullshit, but there are simpler forms to learn faster to the average human being. The creator of the first style was general Chen, at his time the military took an exam to promote ranks; so, to be a general you had to be a Great Master!. :)
@GhostOfMorrison right on, i learned karate at the same age only for a brief time, but i was taught to never be still when an attacker approaches, which was precisely what i needed, because like most kids in elementary they are picked on for being different, and i was forced to use what i had learned in the dojo on bullys, long story short, they left me alone after that.
Bobbe you are a crazy son of a gun :D I just came back from Germany. How are you doing? Hope you are 100% now... and stop saying pee-pee, it doesnt sound gangsta.
Just for the readers of this comments, please don't take ofense, this master is very good but a little humor is not harmful. I practiced Iaido some time, so you can take revenge doing jokes about my hakama :D !! Thanks!
@GhostOfMorrison to answer your question, yes my friends threw punches accordingly, but they do hold back somewhat, because its sparring lol. Ive chopped one of them in the forehead on accident, but it was a slight tap, but its all about the speed in reacting time, just like in wing chun, you're there b4 they are, thats how i practice. check out this vid, there some good silat channels on youtube aside from this one, check this one out /watch?v=8bLkG8t5lC4
@pacovl46 You are absolutely right. My former Iaido sensei practice like the old samurai, he is a Karate black belt, Aikido 2nd Dan and Iaido Muso Shinden Ryu 3rd Dan. He has a very open mind for training. Old samurai trained about 5 or 6 systems, including military weapons, special police weapons like Jutte, horse riding, knife throwing, kempo and jujutsu (or aikijutsu). Many modern martial arts were parts of wider systems, mixing is the way. Silat is great too! :) I like Serak style, is great
You are absolutely correct! But you better be able to convince the jury that your actions were rightfully necessary and proportion the threat at hand. After paying the bondsman, retainer fee, and $1000.00 a day for the lawyer if it goes on trial... Do you really want to find out? Otherwise, you'll have plenty of time to practice your martial art in the "BIG HOUSE" together with other folks who simply got carried away.
@DjRodimusPrimeXyZ Ok, so you've tried it with friends/sparring partners. I'm sure that their attacks weren't meant to do the damage that would be caused in a real fight. And i'm sure you instructed them to do exactly this attack...so you were expecting it...which is why it worked. The sheer fact that he stays in front of the blade is the first problem. A knife, when used to kill, moves much faster than an eye can follow. (cont.)
@AnotherClich3 It's true. But I must clarify that the poor practicality comes from poor teaching methods, not the system itself. Is like Aikido. There is great difference between the practice and teaching methods of many of the great masters. And Krav Maga and MMA don't teach anything new, is just a new interpretation of old techniques, and a more realistic one. The biggest problem I see is the "adoration of the Master". That paralizes deep innovation.
@SaInT1185 silat has many branches, keep studying videos until you see the style that most appeals to you, then see who is closest to you. study the history, this is not an art form that was watered down to suit tournaments and children, you will know which form you prefer when you see it. it may be a blend, or a single form. best wishes in the arts..
@weltenbummler82 good point, in my home town we use knife and machete in real fight, and that is the truth about real fight `you use weapons`, because the pragmatic idea of using weapons in real fight is the same as if you want to dig a hole in a terrain, you want to do it fast with less effort...and what way you can do it? ..you use a tool (shovel if you want to dig ahole and machete for example for afight), so a person who use a weapon in real fight considerebely a smart person.
About dammed time someone showed that just grabbing the knife hand is pretty much useless... And at last! someone's showing that understanding body mechanics and using that knowledge to gain the upper hand in a 1-2-1 situation.

I love watching this video, Maul's skills are outstanding. The only weakness in this technique, however, is if the attacker had some caged tigers he let loose while you were distracted. Then you would be screwed. Because they would eat you.
gosto muito desta arte marcial silat suffian, mas pratico wing chun kuen que tem muita semelhança com essa arte filipina. melhorei muito depois que aprendi vendo quase todos esses videos curtos das artes filipinas meu wing chun ficou mais versatil e poderoso,
I meant Chen Wanting, the very creator of the first style, Chen, in the XVI century, that doesn't apply to modern military. And of course is limited. I agree with you about that folkloric things, don't buy it too. I wouldn't use it, it's not fit to my natural mechanics. And trying to learn the real use of Chi is too dificult to apply. It is sane to be skeptical, there are many guys trying to sell something
that looks like awesome Brunei kerambit stuff! But why do you show such complicated techinques? wouldn't it be easier to just throw your kerambit at the person and then pull out yourGlock 9? That's what TI and lil wayne would do. And they have real street cred!
Too many. I like classic martial arts, but sometimes we forget all this was meant for war. Even the very classic styles we practice had a practical meaning in everything, they were born because some warrior thought there was a more practical way to do things, but, as time goes by, some people begins to do things just because the elders did, they don't understand what are they doing. Many martial arts have suffered this situation, specially modern interpretations of ancient war techniques.
@GhostOfMorrison u just answered ur own question dude lol, first of all of course the technique is taught at a slow pace, if it was taught fast at first it would make no sense therefore it would serve no real purpose. its taught slow, then it is sped up, so no offense to you, i have practiced some of these moves when sparring with friends and i dont move slow, so i have a better idea of how the techniques would work in a real fight if i had to use them of course.
@solnegrolunaroja While it's certainly true that the practicality of old martial arts is very questionable, modern, practical martial arts have evolved and developed. Nobody really expects to get too much use out of your local karate McDojo teachings. For people who actually want to learn how to defend themselves, there's stuff like this, Krav Maga, mixed martial arts, etc.
Sadly ...most martial arts instructors complicate things...instead of making it easier for the students....money making is more important to them tsk tsk...when you make your art technique based it is set up...that is where the problem starts coz the real attack has no numbers....mabuhay kayong lahat
@solnegrolunaroja well, martial arts evolve just like anything else. and lets face it, just one martial art doesn't prepare u for any situation, except silat and muay thai maybe. but in case of silat, u don't really want to kill yr opponent in a street fight anyway. so it's better to take the best from everything and mix it, right?!
You'd be surprised to know just how many crazy attackers simply don't care about going up against a knife. Also, if your attacker pulls out a knife, congratulations!...you've got yourself a knife fight, and you better know what you're doing. ;) I'd say a kerambit is a good start, though. :)
@wtfdudenotcool101 That's a generalization. You're talking about state laws. In California for example, hell yes, you aren't allowed to carry anything dangerous without special permission. However, in Arizona, i'm allowed to carry a Nepalese khukuri in public all i want. :) Also, we just got rid of that license law. If you are an adult with no felony convictions in Arizona you can buy a gun, load it, and carry it around in your pocket. ;)
If interested in this training with this Master, go to his silatsuffian dot net site. Do not email him. He is overwhelmed with requests. There will be a few public seminars in the US in 2014. He is one of the few legit Silat masters to travel and teach in the US, it is a rare opportunity. And if you think it doesn't work, attend one day and get your mind changed.
@GhostOfMorrison it wont work if u dont know what ur doing or if u pause then its already too late, unless youve ever had someone pull a knife on you & had to defend ur self your comment is well kind of useless too, no offense.
not really, silat aim to kill your opponent in the fastest time. Or at least broke your opponent bone(s). And silat is for self defense, if you start a fight, there's a high chance that you will lose. Provided that your opponent also have some technique :)
my favorite weapon, kerambit. Hidden n concealed so our opponent would underestimate us untill he realized he's bleeding so bad. No I would not do that. I will forgive him and. let him go after several showoff movements as deterrant. :-)
@DjRodimusPrimeXyZ How is my comment useless? The training of this 'technique' is based on a slow moving mostly stationary attack that the guy is expecting. If this were a real fight with a real knife, it would be moving MUCH faster and with a lot more strength added into the mix. To just stand there and pick the hand off will get you killed by the other hand swinging the knife. Martial arts needs to wain itself away from teaching set techs. No fight or fighter is the same as the previous one
Possible... What you thought have happened is meaningless unless you have a credible witness to testify on your behalf to corroborate your story. Just a friendly reminder from someone who closely knows an avid M.A. who have had a close call and went through the intricate legal process. Mostly just a reminder for someone with misplaced bravado due to youth or sinister peer ressure.

@GhostOfMorrison to answer your question, yes my friends threw punches accordingly, but they do hold back somewhat, because its sparring lol.

how tough is this guy im just curious id like like to see him fight cause he knows quite abit
I want to mix the Karambit into my Wing Chun it's such a cool weapon and would fit well with what I train.
wow amazing!
since im a brunei where can i learn this :DDD mana tampat kamu belatih or tusyen?
goodnes,,bravo asian fighting,,silat,,
Does anyone know if there's an opportunity to buy blades like those we see at the beginning of this video ?
best of the best! king of the kings!
You are absolutely correct! But you better be able to convince the jury that your actions were rightfully necessary and proportion the threat at hand.

when do they come to new york or is it a gym in new york?
@DjRodimusPrimeXyZ Ok, so you've tried it with friends/sparring partners. I'm sure that their attacks weren't meant to do the damage that would be caused in a real fight. And i'm sure you instructed them to do exactly this attack...so you were expecting it...which is why it worked. The sheer fact that he stays in front of the blade is the first problem.

But why do you show such complicated techinques? wouldn't it be easier to just throw your kerambit at the person and then pull out yourGlock 9?
That's what TI and lil wayne would do.
And they have real street cred!
silat is the best Martial Art one you fully on concentrate on it, It can goes fully inner power and invisible movement.
Too many. I like classic martial arts, but sometimes we forget all this was meant for war.

XD lol
That's a sarong, if I'm not wrong, and it's also useful for defense if you're unarmed. It's like a combat miniskirt XD
By the way, I was thinking about what jokes could you make about my hakama! :D
its my friends sport

You'd be surprised to know just how many crazy attackers simply don't care about going up against a knife. Also, if your attacker pulls out a knife, congratulations!...you've got yourself a knife fight, and you better know what you're doing. ;) I'd say a kerambit is a good start, though. :)
should practice defense the karambi

@GhostOfMorrison it wont work if u dont know what ur doing or if u pause then its already too late, unless youve ever had someone pull a knife on you & had to defend ur self your comment is well kind of useless too, no offense.
Gila bahaya kerambit tu...
not really, silat aim to kill your opponent in the fastest time. Or at least broke your opponent bone(s). And silat is for self defense, if you start a fight, there's a high chance that you will lose. Provided that your opponent also have some technique :)

my favorite weapon, kerambit. Hidden n concealed so our opponent would underestimate us untill he realized he's bleeding so bad. No I would not do that. I will forgive him and. let him go after several showoff movements as deterrant. :-)
@DjRodimusPrimeXyZ How is my comment useless? The training of this 'technique' is based on a slow moving mostly stationary attack that the guy is expecting. If this were a real fight with a real knife, it would be moving MUCH faster and with a lot more strength added into the mix. To just stand there and pick the hand off will get you killed by the other hand swinging the knife.
Martial arts needs to wain itself away from teaching set techs. No fight or fighter is the same as the previous one
Hey Jimmy 😂😂
@PendekarBobbe haha i laughed :D
Possible... What you thought have happened is meaningless unless you have a credible witness to testify on your behalf to corroborate your story. Just a friendly reminder from someone who closely knows an avid M.A. who have had a close call and went through the intricate legal process. Mostly just a reminder for someone with misplaced bravado due to youth or sinister peer ressure.
it's deadly silat weapon..preserve traditional silat style from Guru Maul.
anybody ever attempt a disarm on a karambit-in-action---THAT I'd like to see
