How can anyone say Silat isn't effective? When its done right, and you go up against that person, no matter what you know, you're likely to be on the ground within seconds with multiple broken bones and severe internal organ damage.
mgah bobo wlang kwenta ang mgah pinag aawayan nyo!!! ang kali ay martial arts sa philipinas.. putang inang silat yan salot!! ikinukumpara nyo ang silat sa kali?? DUROG ANG SILAT SA KALI mgah bovo!!! fuck u all indonesians t(-.-t) kung mag salita kau kala nyo kayo gumwa ng kali kapal!! hampasin q ko kayu ng rattan mukah nyo eh!!
You are absolutely right. I Practice Kali Silat as martial art, not as a self-defense system. I agree with you. When Iḿ talking about self-defense, I practice Kombato.
"Throw a punch at me slowly, leave it extended for 5 seconds, and watch what i can do to you"
"grab my arm... no the other arm"
That is why I don't like practicing moves like that. You can learn a move on a person thats letting you do it all day. but what happens when you try it on someone thats litterally beating the shit out of you and all that bs you were doing in training goes out the window?
@ShelbyDuncan57 You are right to some extent, but there's always a reason a move is practiced the way it is shown here mainly because when a real fight happens, instincts "should" take over. The reason for the slow movement is not for people to rely on those situations. A real master WILL "create" the situation leading to these movements and as a basic principle of any martial arts, you capitalize on it.
man, i gonna do a festival at my school and the country we've chosen is Malasia and we gonna do something of Silat and I need this music... if you wouldnt speak in the video I could convert the video to mp3 but there're voices in the video so i wanna only the music. Could you gimme the name of this music by message?? thanks
@zellymusic ur talking about itas right? well philippines ones an isolated island and there still no solid evidence on whose 1st. and im from baguio 100% igorot
@copypacercopypacer u dont get it do you ? philippine history and heritage we are basically mixed breed of people but we orignated from malay's(ancient people) we are only called pilipino's cause where from philippines(named after the spanish king philip something) so dont say i dont know what im talking ^^
@bursky09 well actually before malay ppl there are those that are called Negritos! you can find them now in the mountains! Negritos sounds like the spanish word for Small Black ppl.
So I also agree with you. I live in Davao! ( Im Native American BTW hehe)

Core form of Silat is from Indonesia. the Indonesian (espescially of malay and java ethnics) spread it ages ago to other parts of S.E. Asia.
It has been modified and developed into various of unique and different styles. Each now have their own Silat-derived-MA system. In Indonesia, the name is Pencak Silat, In Malaysia is Silat Melayu, in Phillipines is Kali Silat.
Each with it's own specialty and uniqueness, but the core remain the same. Experts & practitioners of these arts know this.
The most effective tool I have seen in kali to be utilized by novice and expert alike is the blocking of the flying knock out power punch aimed at your head with the small of your elbow.... very efective street fighting tactic... bone on bone destruction or limb destruction..{defanging the snake}
@iceman081807 you're an idiot.. do some research and you'll figure out SILAT is from Indonesia... Kali is a form of Silat.. dont try to claim something that isnt yours
@HYBRIDCOMBATIVES im not talkin about all Filipino martial arts im talkin about Kali Silat.. it has the damn name Silat in it.. lol and you're tellin me it has nothing to do with silat which originated in Indonesia?
@AshTrizey ur fucing ass retarded, kali or eskrima is not realted to silat and is not a ripoff either, either way kali is 50 times better then stupid silat

@tapap1990 KALI KILLS SILAT!!!! That's a fact! Kali's country of origin has produced real life ancient and modern warriors. In ancient battles like Lapu lapu, warriors of the Korean wars and World War II, boxing Hall of Famers and MMA octagon fighters. While Silat's country of origin Malaysia has produced NOTHING! They will say Malaysia has their own warriors but they are nothing but Malay mythology characters like Monsopiad and urban legend Huang Tuah. Silat is nothing but bastardized Kung Fu!
@tapap1990 Malaysia is a nation of cowards! You have proved nothing in battles, wars, boxing or any form of fighting. No Malaysian has won against a Filipino in any fight whether it is in boxing, karate and any form of martial arts. There's no such thing as a Malaysian warrior. That's a FACT!!
By the way: not Kali, right? For the ones who ignore the fact, Kali is more than just stick or knife, it is extremely effetctive on hand-to-hand combat. Since it is a very broad name for FMA schools, almost anything related to filipino martial arts IS Kali.

@cphdotdk this is Kali Silat. It is a Filipino Kali system from the southern Philippines that has a fair amount of influence from Indonesian Silat. Kali has elements of empty hands (panantukan,pangamut,dumog) incorporated into its edged/impact arsenal.. Many forns of Silat focus more heavily on empty hands, but also incorporate weapons. warfare arts are rarely empty hands by definition.
I do MMA, trained with Kenny Florian, am an amature myself, but know, for a fact...kali silat IS THE MOST PRACTICAL SHIT YOU COULD LEARN AND WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE...I WAS ALMOST MUGGED AT GUN POINT IN BOSTON, THIS SHIT SAVED MY LIFE
chumanchu87... Most of the attacks you encounter on the streets are completely half-assed, straight ahead punches towards the face (easiest to block of any). Kali trapping techniques wouldn't give an attacker a chance to hit you. cross your arms, blanket incoming punch (easy as hell), then just quickly shift it to the left or right with your opposite hand. Then strike to the face repeatedly. Attacker wouldnt know wtf was going on. I've used Kali techniques many times, they work for me.
What would you consider a "real street fight" that term personally disgusts me, and is rarely used by anyone but teenagers who don't have respect for martial arts.
You replied to my comment disrespectivly, what did you want, a pat on the back. Quit being an asshole, if you want to leave a comment, you should have left one about the video, not my opinion towards something. You were "trolling" and found an old comment of mine. Get off your high horse and go fuck yourself
tru say. wen guns first wer used in india by the british the rajput dint use them in war b coz they saw it as a cowards act. but in the end they had 2 resort to usin them. so yea sword knife spear fists r all honourable ways 2 fight an they do hold the most honour.
Philippines and Indonesia used to be part of the same empire. The arts are closely related. There are dozens if not hundreds of systems of Kali alone.
@P1lotBoy Why learn Silat? Kali kills silat! P.I. has produced real warriors and fighters. Lapu-lapu, Diego Silang, Bonifacio, Korean wan and World War II heroes, numerous escrimadors-arnisadors, head hunters of Philippine jungles,Pancho Villa, Elorde, Ceferino Garcia, Luisito Espinosa, Manny Pacquiao, Penalosa brothers, Eduard Folayang, Nonito Donaire and many more.! What has Malaysia produced? All they can name is Monsopiad of Malay mythology. A head hunting cannibal! HAHAHAHAHA!
this guy is good, Kali has been around a very long time and been proven and developed in real combat, nothing better in a life or death situation in my opion.
monster, if you knew the roots of kali and silat, you wont mare remarks like that. lol. israel wasnt even an idea when kali and silat were being used to fight western invaders.
Kali and silat are excellent martial arts, maybe two of the best but in my opinion they are hard to master in order to be applied in real life situations. Krav Maga is much more direct, dont have dispendable moves so mauch more easy to apply in live situations. This advantage makes thar Krav is used by a majorety of militar and police forces around the world. Thats only my opinion
You are wrong. Silat is definitely also being used among Special Forces, Law Enforcement and Agents. I really dig Krav Maga, don't get me wrong, but imo it's focused on practicing routines and situations if "that happens do this"..where as I find much more freedom in Silat, and hence making EVERY possible attack defendable.
Try practicing kilab for a while, fill in some drils and promise you will find the power beyond this earth.
for the information of the some people out there, magellan was such an arrogant freak. He had befriended some natives before he even fought with lapu-lapu's band. he announced to the natives that he, together with his fellow invaders, would deal with lapu-lapu and his minions singlehandedly. the result was a carnage. lapu-lapu was killed while ordering his men to retreat.
jose lapu lapu was killed? hahahahahah! last i checked magellan was killed in the philippines by muslim warriors. datu lapu lapu killed him. get ur facts straight bro.
@NukeA6 You're wrong. Effective gun use and proper training is a very demanding discipline. The British were outnumbered 3 to 1 in the Falklands with poorer weapons and while attacking an emplaced opponent, it was only their superior training that allowed them to slaughter the Argentinians.
@NukeA6 I dunno man...it's like anything else. You could say the same thing about a knife. Get a buddy, take a couple of red markers, and spar. See if you can go 30 seconds without getting marked. Like, I hear what your saying, but it's not cut and dried, right? To be a really good shooter is hard, not many people can shoot and hit a target literally at will.
@NukeA6 "Respectful" wrong word anyone can pull a trigger (assuming they know enough to load it and take the safety off) using it well takes skill. A knife, anyone can plunge a knife in someone. To kill with a knife silently and without leaving a mess takes skill.

lol jake stop embarassing yourself any further. you are making yourself look like an idiot. know the history first so you dont have to make up stories. 2000-3000 natives lol where did you get that? 2000-3000 only 500 of them will be warrior the rest are merchants, women, children, farmers, etc.
Stop talking about where it originates or who are the pioneers the point is: who practices it? Art is doing.. Philippines has long history existence. There land was a continent before ice age. After the melting of ice only the tip of the land remains . That is why Philippines has 7,100 islands and islets. The evidence of cultural heritage was buried under the ocean. I am not mentioning yet the invasion of westerns during 1521. Filipinos are great sword men of ASIA. Keep it up Davide .
Magellan and his men were "MURDERED" by the natives -check any unbiased history book. They were killed not because the natives's martial arts skill was superior but by what we can consider this modern times as - military strategy,a mix of element of surprise & deceit - a big trap . Magellan and his men failed to ESCAPE the carnage.
jake, magellan invaded and should expect ppl to fight back. call it murder if u like. but if someone invades my home, it is a right to take him out from where im from. Magellan = Invader, Lapu lapu= Defender. Magellan + Lapu lapu = Magellan dead.
THe phils was muslim land. and so kali silat or silatan was where eskrima or arnes de mano as the spanish tasted it would later call or rename it. spaniards were the invaders. and so must be fought back to the very last drop of blood. blood for blood. blade to blade. not cannon to blade.... har har har...
lapulapu was not even around during the fighting. and the natives was not even using martial arts, they won the battle by sheer numbers. Some natives were even killed while attacking a wounded and downed spaniard, while attacking without even thinking that the enemy could still use the spear it was holding. I don't see any martial arts there. get real bdoi.
you get real jake, based on what facts are you focusing on? brw if the spaniards the second time around werent careful with the pinoys, why then did they have a "blood" compact with one of our datus? just to begin blasting them from afar with cannons.
lapu lapu not being around? brw take into considerations that the first invasion was kicked out and that the natives had no guns or armor.
lol, you make it sound like a real fight should have a referee or something. har har har!
brw, in a REAL fight its about SURVIVAL. wether your standing on your head or fighting with your ass facing the enemy. SURVIVAL is what gets you on in a real fight. not some fake ufc type of fighting. cmon, u know this. ;)
you totally veered off from the point dude. The point was, "the natives did not employ any martial arts like kali silat" when they killed the spaniards. Yes they did not have any armors, but they certainly had shields and monster sword like "kampilan". So, to claim that kali silat originated during the time of lapulapu is absolutely wrong - big time. That's the point. In fact the natives did not bring knives to go to battles, they used bolos/swords. They did not know kali silat then.
Jake brother, do u think using a sword like the kampilan against seasoned soldiers who have toledo blades,armour and guns would just take senseless swinging? think about it bro, if you didnt know atleast any art form and you were thrown into a life death situation against real soldiers with better arms than you, do you think you would survive on just uncalculated slash and burn techniques?
Jake bro, i didnt claim that kali silat originated from magellan's time, i would presume it began way before him,brother please understand that kali is a warrior art wich not only has knives, it also incorporates all bladed weapons including bolos so i agree with you on that part. saying the natives didnt know anything would be an understatement. cmon brw be reasonable.
This may be the last points that im going to raise since im getting tired of this. The natives won by sheer numbers. It was about 2-3 thousand natives against to only 300-400 spaniards. The Spaniards were not able to use their canons; they resorted to burning houses. They also used archery but to no avail because of the distance. The natives sustained heavy casualties. No martial arts were mentioned in the history.
I meant 300-400 including friendly natives from lapulapu's rival tribes PLUS a handful of spaniards. The spaniards were friends to 2 other native tribes in nearby islands.
Jake brw, ur basing this on who's account? on the account of pigafetta? brother do understand that the spaniards arent that stupid, they had 1. soldiers of their own., 2. soldiers from their allied tribe, and 3. unmatched weapons, now because the spanish lost on this one, definitely it is a disgrace for s foreign "super" power to be owned by " savages" who have inferior arms compared to them.
and therefore we cannot discount that their "historian" would try to save face by giving the best alibi there is, which is " oh there were a zillion of them! and only four of us!" excuse.
first things first, the spanish got killed because of their arrogance. now if there isnt any trace of martial arts then explain to me why the spanish recorded the use of the blade in the phils islands and went out of their way to call it arnes de mano or escrima? another point to be taken is on their second invasion, why did they deceive and try to make "friends" with the natives.. only to use cannons from afar? hmmm.... makes you think deep.
Brother Jake on the other end of the spectrum, i really dont want to sound like ive created the fma, so i would suggest that perhaps if you be given the time, maybe you could visit an fma kali-eskrima-arnis class in order to make and get a straight forward conclusion on its existence for yourself. and i mean this in a constructive manner.
at that sense brother you would be able to make a conclusion of it being a martial art based on its applications. there are many diff. styles but most have the same fundamentals. i dont blame most westerners for having a sincere doubt on it's history or effectiveness so i would always suggest to experience it with an open mind and heart so that any doubt can be accomodated. ;)
(continuation) The art is a tribal art which was developed to repel foreign invasions to compliment the lack of modern weapons. When Fernando Magallanes (Ferdinand Magellan) landed on Philippine shores, Antonio Pigafetta (Italian Chronicler) recoreded their observations on this art. The battle between the tribal forces and the Spaniards was in favor of the natives since MAgellan was later forced to engage in hand-to-hand combat due to lack of firearms and ammunitions...just want to share..
*SMILE* At least we both appreciate the art=) The Philippine people share common roots with their southeast Asian neighbors. Silat is a Hindu word, not solely Indonesian. (continued)
It is art. This is the art of survival through assualt and defense; direct, passive and indirect. It takes quite a while to master any martial art. This is optional of course. But if you want to explore your capacity and acquire extra skills, this is way cool.=) We here in the Bronx (NY) think that this Filipino style of self defense is very effecient. I'd tell ya, we sure could use some of that stuff down here.
i agree edenapple. there's more chance of survival if you totally avoid a confrontation with someone armed with a bladed weapon. Survival starts with escape - escaping a fatal (for the unarmed) confrontation or ambush. Survival skills is "somewhat" different from defense skills.
;) I was just trying to make a point, for you kind of made it sound like someone with a knife is a unstoppable force :p. Yes you will get cut in a knife fight, but that doesn't mean you should abandon all hope X)
well, as i said, it's your life. so go ahead and stop someone with a knife, who is, for you a stoppable force anyway. and what's a cut in a knife fight, there is always hope, you must not abandon it - in a knife fight. You dude are brilliant, and you must love your life very much. :-)

chumanchu87... Most of the attacks you encounter on the streets are completely half-assed, straight ahead punches towards the face (easiest to block of any). Kali trapping techniques wouldn't give an attacker a chance to hit you. cross your arms, blanket incoming punch (easy as hell), then just quickly shift it to the left or right with your opposite hand. Then strike to the face repeatedly. Attacker wouldnt know wtf was going on. I've used Kali techniques many times, they work for me.

Kali and silat are excellent martial arts, maybe two of the best but in my opinion they are hard to master in order to be applied in real life situations. Krav Maga is much more direct, dont have dispendable moves so mauch more easy to apply in live situations. This advantage makes thar Krav is used by a majorety of militar and police forces around the world. Thats only my opinion
GWarriorMS 3 years ago 2
@GWarriorMS
You are wrong. Silat is definitely also being used among Special Forces, Law Enforcement and Agents. I really dig Krav Maga, don't get me wrong, but imo it's focused on practicing routines and situations if "that happens do this"..where as I find much more freedom in Silat, and hence making EVERY possible attack defendable.
Try practicing kilab for a while, fill in some drils and promise you will find the power beyond this earth.

for the information of the some people out there, magellan was such an arrogant freak. He had befriended some natives before he even fought with lapu-lapu's band. he announced to the natives that he, together with his fellow invaders, would deal with lapu-lapu and his minions singlehandedly. the result was a carnage. lapu-lapu was killed while ordering his men to retreat.

@NukeA6 You're wrong. Effective gun use and proper training is a very demanding discipline. The British were outnumbered 3 to 1 in the Falklands with poorer weapons and while attacking an emplaced opponent, it was only their superior training that allowed them to slaughter the Argentinians.

Stop talking about where it originates or who are the pioneers the point is: who practices it? Art is doing.. Philippines has long history existence. There land was a continent before ice age. After the melting of ice only the tip of the land remains . That is why Philippines has 7,100 islands and islets. The evidence of cultural heritage was buried under the ocean. I am not mentioning yet the invasion of westerns during 1521. Filipinos are great sword men of ASIA. Keep it up Davide .

Magellan and his men were "MURDERED" by the natives -check any unbiased history book. They were killed not because the natives's martial arts skill was superior but by what we can consider this modern times as - military strategy,a mix of element of surprise & deceit - a big trap . Magellan and his men failed to ESCAPE the carnage.

jake, magellan invaded and should expect ppl to fight back. call it murder if u like. but if someone invades my home, it is a right to take him out from where im from. Magellan = Invader, Lapu lapu= Defender. Magellan + Lapu lapu = Magellan dead.
bdoi 4 years ago
THe phils was muslim land. and so kali silat or silatan was where eskrima or arnes de mano as the spanish tasted it would later call or rename it. spaniards were the invaders. and so must be fought back to the very last drop of blood. blood for blood. blade to blade. not cannon to blade.... har har har...
bdoi 4 years ago
lapulapu was not even around during the fighting. and the natives was not even using martial arts, they won the battle by sheer numbers. Some natives were even killed while attacking a wounded and downed spaniard, while attacking without even thinking that the enemy could still use the spear it was holding. I don't see any martial arts there. get real bdoi.
Jakeholmas 4 years ago
you get real jake, based on what facts are you focusing on? brw if the spaniards the second time around werent careful with the pinoys, why then did they have a "blood" compact with one of our datus? just to begin blasting them from afar with cannons.
bdoi 4 years ago
lapu lapu not being around? brw take into considerations that the first invasion was kicked out and that the natives had no guns or armor.
lol, you make it sound like a real fight should have a referee or something. har har har!
brw, in a REAL fight its about SURVIVAL. wether your standing on your head or fighting with your ass facing the enemy. SURVIVAL is what gets you on in a real fight. not some fake ufc type of fighting. cmon, u know this. ;)
bdoi 4 years ago
you totally veered off from the point dude. The point was, "the natives did not employ any martial arts like kali silat" when they killed the spaniards. Yes they did not have any armors, but they certainly had shields and monster sword like "kampilan". So, to claim that kali silat originated during the time of lapulapu is absolutely wrong - big time. That's the point. In fact the natives did not bring knives to go to battles, they used bolos/swords. They did not know kali silat then.
Jakeholmas 4 years ago
Jake brother, do u think using a sword like the kampilan against seasoned soldiers who have toledo blades,armour and guns would just take senseless swinging? think about it bro, if you didnt know atleast any art form and you were thrown into a life death situation against real soldiers with better arms than you, do you think you would survive on just uncalculated slash and burn techniques?
bdoi 4 years ago
Jake bro, i didnt claim that kali silat originated from magellan's time, i would presume it began way before him,brother please understand that kali is a warrior art wich not only has knives, it also incorporates all bladed weapons including bolos so i agree with you on that part. saying the natives didnt know anything would be an understatement. cmon brw be reasonable.
bdoi 4 years ago
This may be the last points that im going to raise since im getting tired of this. The natives won by sheer numbers. It was about 2-3 thousand natives against to only 300-400 spaniards. The Spaniards were not able to use their canons; they resorted to burning houses. They also used archery but to no avail because of the distance. The natives sustained heavy casualties. No martial arts were mentioned in the history.
Jakeholmas 4 years ago
I meant 300-400 including friendly natives from lapulapu's rival tribes PLUS a handful of spaniards. The spaniards were friends to 2 other native tribes in nearby islands.
Jakeholmas 4 years ago
Jake brw, ur basing this on who's account? on the account of pigafetta? brother do understand that the spaniards arent that stupid, they had 1. soldiers of their own., 2. soldiers from their allied tribe, and 3. unmatched weapons, now because the spanish lost on this one, definitely it is a disgrace for s foreign "super" power to be owned by " savages" who have inferior arms compared to them.
bdoi 4 years ago
and therefore we cannot discount that their "historian" would try to save face by giving the best alibi there is, which is " oh there were a zillion of them! and only four of us!" excuse.
bdoi 4 years ago
first things first, the spanish got killed because of their arrogance. now if there isnt any trace of martial arts then explain to me why the spanish recorded the use of the blade in the phils islands and went out of their way to call it arnes de mano or escrima? another point to be taken is on their second invasion, why did they deceive and try to make "friends" with the natives.. only to use cannons from afar? hmmm.... makes you think deep.
bdoi 4 years ago
Brother Jake on the other end of the spectrum, i really dont want to sound like ive created the fma, so i would suggest that perhaps if you be given the time, maybe you could visit an fma kali-eskrima-arnis class in order to make and get a straight forward conclusion on its existence for yourself. and i mean this in a constructive manner.
bdoi 4 years ago
at that sense brother you would be able to make a conclusion of it being a martial art based on its applications. there are many diff. styles but most have the same fundamentals. i dont blame most westerners for having a sincere doubt on it's history or effectiveness so i would always suggest to experience it with an open mind and heart so that any doubt can be accomodated. ;)
bdoi 4 years ago
(continuation) The art is a tribal art which was developed to repel foreign invasions to compliment the lack of modern weapons. When Fernando Magallanes (Ferdinand Magellan) landed on Philippine shores, Antonio Pigafetta (Italian Chronicler) recoreded their observations on this art. The battle between the tribal forces and the Spaniards was in favor of the natives since MAgellan was later forced to engage in hand-to-hand combat due to lack of firearms and ammunitions...just want to share..
Roughneck501 4 years ago
*SMILE* At least we both appreciate the art=) The Philippine people share common roots with their southeast Asian neighbors. Silat is a Hindu word, not solely Indonesian. (continued)
Roughneck501 4 years ago
It is art. This is the art of survival through assualt and defense; direct, passive and indirect. It takes quite a while to master any martial art. This is optional of course. But if you want to explore your capacity and acquire extra skills, this is way cool.=) We here in the Bronx (NY) think that this Filipino style of self defense is very effecient. I'd tell ya, we sure could use some of that stuff down here.
Roughneck501 4 years ago
this guys method looks effective if you are very experienced, for the average person it is a flawed choice for self defense
fastroadkill 4 years ago
i agree edenapple. there's more chance of survival if you totally avoid a confrontation with someone armed with a bladed weapon. Survival starts with escape - escaping a fatal (for the unarmed) confrontation or ambush. Survival skills is "somewhat" different from defense skills.

well, as i said, it's your life. so go ahead and stop someone with a knife, who is, for you a stoppable force anyway. and what's a cut in a knife fight, there is always hope, you must not abandon it - in a knife fight. You dude are brilliant, and you must love your life very much. :-)
