The story that i was told was that during the war Pencak Silat was forbidden. The enemy would not allow practising they considered it dangerous. So the people started to make dancing moves to cover up the silat. But it's also used to misled your opponent.

This is a different bowl dance than taught by my Guru from Java. Thanks for sharing. Very nice.

Do the Javanese have similair moves? Or can we say that their are typical javanese tari piring and typical sumatran tari piring? The rings are shells from a nut. It's very difficult to follow the tempo of the music and hitting the nuts on the plates and also doing the moves :-)

Pencak silat is not only for fighting... :-) Peace. Salaaam.

[wrikudoro]

yes it is. but often it was developed into dance too. to make it more interesting for newbie.

I think its somewhere i between fighting technique and dance, -at least you need musik for it. In Brazil they have capoeira, in Indonesia they have pencak silat.

[faRahGT]
