Maphilndo Silat

Maphilndo Silat / Madjapihit Martial Arts

These arts are taught as part of our Kali-Escrima-Panatukan structure. We will be conducting seminars directed soley at these arts.

I teach these arts as they were taught to me by Magulang na Guro Dan Inosanto, being a blend of Filipino, Malaysian, and Indonesian Martial Arts.

I primarily teach what is known as Bukti Negara which is an Americanized version of Silat. The main difference being the art is raised up off the ground. The low stances and contorted postures are replaced with more western-style positions (we are standing up).

We have modified much of the entry mechanisms by entering the major tactics from a more flexible stuctrure.

We do not wear the garb of Silat folks, nor do we wear the uniform of any particular culture we study.

Most of our arts finishing moves can be related to Maphilindo/Madjapihit Martial Arts.
