Pentjak Silat means, literally, the formal movements or choreography (Pentjak) of fighting (Silat). Pentjak Silat is a very effective Indonesian martial art, renowned for its use of triangular motion and close quarters fighting style. Our instructor, Dr. Scott Sobel, holds the rank of Guru Besar in Pentjak Silat Serak fromĀ Dr. Andre KnustGraichen. The Pentjak Silat we practice is NOT a sport: it is an art of self-defense.
The Academy of Traditional Asian Fighting Arts holds practice in the art of Pentjak Silat Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8:15pm to 9:30pm. Please wear comfortable athletic gear. The Academy has black Pentjak Silat shirts for sale. The Academy also can order foam sticks for practice if you do not have your own.
