Does anyone know a good Silat school/instructor in Amsterdam? I will likely be there for a few months soon.
Thanks for this! I looked it over, and it looks like the gym where the classes are taught out of teaches several other MA styles besides Silat, and there is Silat 2 X per week so this is good.
There are a number of styles of silat in Amsterdam: - Silek Tuo Minang (Bob van Dolderen) - Setia Hati Anoman (Louis Fraanje) - Tapak Suci - Panglipur (if i'm correct it's still Martin Markus) - Pamor Badai - Satria Muda (in Hoofddorp near Amsterdam)
Thanks Taoizt - you have given me a lot of stuff to look over - and I have been googling and youtubing it a bit. thanks for your help!
Did about a 90 minute class of Panglipur Silat today. I was pretty impressed by it. I will try to make this a regular thing and try to pick up some Silat to remember and take home with me.
This group has a pretty direct link with Cecep Arif Rahman. The villain from the movie blockbuster 'The Raid' (part 1 and 2). A very skilled pesilat and also a very nice guy in reality! If you are in the neighbourhood of Rotterdam, just send me a message and you can join in our Bukti Negara class.
