bushido_man96 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Here's an interesting Silat video I came across in my Facebook feed: Dan Inosanto and Paul deThouars. There are some very interesting movements going on there. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensei8 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I'd have to concur...very interesting movements. These movements are pretty much similar to what one would find in Tuite. Thanks for sharing them, Brian!! **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CredoTe Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Yes, great find, great share! I agree with Bob; the movements look very similar to what's found in Tuite / grappling applications of Karate... Remember the Tii!In Life and Death, there is no tap-out...

Wastelander Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 Silat has a lot of similarities to classical karate, in my opinion--it's not surprising, considering how big a player Okinawa was in oceanic trade across the region. Indo-China was very much within their realm, and I would be absolutely shocked if Silat and karate were not exchanged during that time.

There was a lot of "trading" that went on in that area, and not just in commerce. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
