Hi guys,

saying just 'Silat' is like saying 'Kung Fu' - both refer to a massive array of fighting methods and individual styles.

Armed / unarmed / wrestling / grappling / striking / internal / external - etc etc.

What kind of silat are we talking about?

Also what is ment by you learn JKD and Silat and Kali?

So you go from the non traditional theory and methods of JKD to the traditional methods of Silat and Kali? seems a bit strange, i thought that if anything your training would be JKD full stop with no seperation into individual 'styles'. Is this not what JKD is, is this not what bruce lee created?

He said himself that JKD would be different for every one it is not a style but a theory of study.

Cheers
Chris
