CIMANDE GERAK SATRIA SHAKTI "JURUS"


Our system is about going beyond "Form" and returning to a state of "formlessness" Or Natural movement and Integration. So our priority is to let the SILAT be expressed from with in and from the Divine inspiration directly (Gerak). But students need a reference point to start from. So this is why we have jurus.

Our Jurus come from 2 sources

1) Gerak

2) Analyzing Cimande, Sera(k), Kesateria Al Haqq.

The Key components in our Jurus are the root motions, the subtle movements, Gestures & Contractions (Bandhas, Mudras) of the outer body & Inner Body Muscles. The Alignment of the Body & Spine, and most of all the Breath awareness, Control & Constant meditative state aroused through constant connection & remembrance (Zikr) to the DIVINE SOURCE (The Creator) of all SILAT (Chi Kung, Tenaga Dalam, Tenaga Batin, Ilmu Kebatinan) and Mother Earth. Most Silat systems today are only concerned with the outer movements but All Jurus have an Outer Inner & Secret Application.

We teach our Jurus but we also teach our students their ROOTS.

The ROOTS:

Sera Jurus 1 - 18 (Pendekar Paul De Thouars, Guru Cliff Stewart, Guru Stevan Plinck)

Kilat Jurus 1 - 4 (Guru Cliff Stewart)

Cimande jurus 1 - 33 (Guru Haji Pak Muhammad Ariffin Mang Ipin)

Kesatria Al Haqq ( Guru Simon Das)

Hoshin Tao Chi Kung (Dr. Glenn J Morris)
