BUAH PUKUL
it is something u will hear the most in a combative silat...basicly translate into attack move....one thing about silat...the buah pukul should be dull or impractical the first time u learn it....but not all...in which you will have to learn some moves that are to many moves,punches and kick...in a single buah pukul..as an example..buah pukul 2 needs u to evade a punch,punch the enemy,kick his legs,punch him again,step on his gut,punch him again,again and again...impractical because the oppnt is not a dummy or piece of log..he will not just stand there and do nothing...but that is the secret...notice the position of the enemy after an attacks...notice the attack that u inflict in that position...its all langkah and tapak...if a silat tht u are learning does not hav this type of attack strand...the silat might be edited in which there are no creativity....remember..silat is an age old arts...it has all the secrets that u can dig...dont be fooled by some fancy instructor that learn silat in a 2 day crash course and than teach u all the things that he thinks he remembered...he thinks!
....REMEMBER THIS....my friend..if u are learning a silat that wants u to kick as high as u can...dump it and ask for ur money back...a true silat never lift the kick higher than the waist...some that i have learnt dont even kick...but that doesnt mean than i cant scissor kick two guys at once or neither cant other pesilat...but i learnt it from other martial arts...not silat...
