Combat Silat International

Combat Silat International is the name given to the Association, which I formed, to promote and develop the styles of combat that I teach. I wanted people to know, from the start that, this was a very functioning combat system from the very beginning of training ! Our focus is to promote the combat principles of Silat. Over the years, the style we teach has reach out to various countries (UK, Finland, France, Spain) so we decided that to help to run this ever expanding network of like minded people, we would need to have an Association, somewhere for people to find info on training, classes, teachers etc... and so Combat Silat International was born.

As you can see on our logo we have Celtic symbols, this is represent our European Celtic heritage, as we have develop our style of Silat to deal with physical aggression from a European view point. We are a Western European version of Silat. The four animals on the logo represent the 4 main styles / ranges of Combat we use to develop our fighting abilities.

Harimau (Tiger) Ground Fighting / Wresting, Ular (Snake) Close Range / Knife and Stick , Monjet (Monkey) mid range style using alot of elbow- knee techniques, it also gives us our staff training. Blakok (Crane) Long range / Kicking/ Punching. It also has a unique combat Sword style. Bringing all these combat attributes together we merge with the human body to create Raja Naga (Dragon) which is unique way of training for each and every single student.

Weapon Training consists of the following - Pisau (Knife), Kermabit (Tiger Claw Blade), Keris, Pendang (Sword), Kunjang, Cabang (Trident Blade), Golok, Trumbu (Staff), Kanching (Pocket Stick) Cane.

Unlimited Unarmed Combat System consists of the following - Striking (Kicking / Punching / Knees / Elbows ) Locking, Sweeps, Trapping, Grappling, Groundfighting, Throws etc..

The goal of our training is to develop the natural talent, abilities and skills of each student, in an alive modern enviroment, equiping you with the best training and mindset.
