> Buka Jalan Pentjak Silat is a composite system created by world-renowned Guro Cass Magda. > Guro Cass Magda’s Silat pedigree is excellent as he was a student of two of America’s most revered Silat Masters – Pendekars Paul De Thouars and Herman Suwanda. > While this system was born in the United States it is unmistakably an Indonesian art; specifically west Javanese, although there is some Sumatran influence as well. > The roots of both masters can be traced back to the island of Java in Indonesia; specifically the Sundanese highland cities of Bandung and Bogor in west Java. > Given our west Javanese heritage, it should come as no surprise that we wear our sarongs west Javanese style. > The Sumatran influence is represented by the harimau or tiger style. > The Culture & Etiquette of Buka Jalan Pentjak Silat > As an Institute of Higher Learning, culture and etiquette are very important to us. > We want our students to be genuinely curious about the country and its’ customs, dress, language, music, and people. > This promotes cultural understanding, broadens horizons and fosters a richer understanding of the art. > In further support of our cultural emphasis, we adhere to the adat / hormat etiquette principle. > Adat refers to a custom or a courtesy. > In our Institute, salutations represent that custom or courtesy. > Hormat, on the other hand, is the rendering of that custom or courtesy. > In other words, hormat is the actual performance of the salutation. > Art of the Takedown > Takedowns are one of the first areas of study for most students. > As a result, many students believe that Buka Jalan Pentjak Silat is the art of the takedown. > Students learn a variety of takedowns from standing and ground positions. > Despite these facts, Buka Jalan Pentjak Silat is not the art of the takedown. > Don't get me wrong; takedowns are important but its' philosophy and style are more important. > Philosophy In Action > Prior to actually performing the takedowns, however, you need to understand the overall guiding philosophy of our method of Silat. > The overall guiding philosophy is that of “directing the assailant.” > “Directing the assailant” is the central doctrine upon which all movements, strategies, tactics and techniques are based. > This central doctrine is the reason for the other “laws” governing our art. > The other "laws" include things such as tenderizing, making the way and maintaining constant forward pressure in your technique. > A Pukulan Style > Our method of Silat is a Pukulan style, which means it emphasizes fast, rapid hitting. > Pukul means to hit. > The best case scenario is that this fast, rapid hitting finishes your opponent. > The worst case scenario is that it softens him up or distracts him. > In other words, it tenderizes him. > While the hitting itself is a form of making the way, making the way is more detailed than simply hitting. > Making the way is one aspect of manipulation, which involves applying forces to your opponent’s body to follow up on your hitting and to prepare for his finish. > A second and equally important aspect of manipulation is maintaining constant forward pressure in your technique. > In short, this involves keeping the pressure on your opponent the entire time. > The constant pressure is intended to direct him to a “finish” – in this case, a takedown. > Entering > Aside from takedowns, defensive entry techniques are another area of early study. > Defensive entry techniques are protective measures that allow you to handle an opponent’s attack and pave the way for you to close the distance. > The goal of “defensive entry technique training” is to begin establishing the skills, comfort, and mindset to enter into the eye of the storm. > Beyond Takedowns & Entering > Buka Jalan Pentjak Silat is a comprehensive combat system. > This system plays a role in both our Phase and Cultural curricula. > In the Phase Curriculum, students are exposed to: > - the Buka Jalan Pentjak Silat salutation > - concepts and theories of the system > - grappling > - kuncian - locks > - harimau or tiger style > - pleekit - "sticky" body and other "sticking" drills > - sambutan - counter-for-counter > - follow-ups > - weaponry > Students in the Cultural Curriculum are exposed to: > - jurus - forms > - langkah - footwork patterns > - sambutan - techniques and counter-for-counter > - specialized exercises > - weapons > - rahasia - secrets > A True Self-Defense System > Buka Jalan Pentjak Silat is a true self-defense system! > What does this mean? > This means the system has no on-guard position. > In the real world, you likely will not have time to get into an on-guard position. > Our system of Silat teaches whatever position you’re in is your on-guard position.

(Hebb Institute, Zusammenfassung) - Der Autor lernte Silat 2000 ĂŒber Cass Magdas Video «European Tour» (Pentjak Silat und Kali) kennen. Erster Eindruck: aggressive Direktheit, konstante Effizienz, unnachgiebige EndgĂŒltigkeit – harte, vorwĂ€rtsdrĂ€ngende Einstiege, SchlĂ€ge und Manipulationen, Follow-ups nach dem Takedown. - **Out of My House:** SchlĂ€ge und Manipulationen bewegen den Gegner nach links oder rechts aus der eigenen Linie – das stört sein Gleichgewicht, hĂ€lt den Druck aufrecht und «macht den Weg» fĂŒr das NĂ€chste. - **Calm the Tiger:** Den wĂŒtenden Gegner vor oder wĂ€hrend des Einstiegs «betĂ€uben» – Pukulan-Stile tun das mit schnellen SchlĂ€gen. - **Independent Bases:** Oberkörper und Unterkörper sind zwei unabhĂ€ngige Basen eines Ganzen – entscheidend fĂŒr die Techniken. - **Counter for Counter:** Neun Takedowns werden erst einzeln gelernt, dann als Konter – jeder Takedown lĂ€sst sich mit demselben und den acht anderen kontern. - **Wissen vs. Verstehen:** Den Sapu Dalam kennen ist das eine; ihn verstehen heisst, ihn in der Nahdistanz, im RĂŒckzug, mit Tempo und mit Hebeln am Oberkörper anwenden können. - **Dalam und Luar:** wörtlich innen und aussen (Sapu Dalam/Luar), ĂŒbertragen die verborgene und die offensichtliche Deutung – der AufwĂ€rts-Ellbogen in die eigene Hand ist «luar» ein Kopfgriff mit Ellbogen, «dalam» ein Wurf, Takedown, Hebel oder Konter darauf. - **Ein Sack Mehl:** Jurus und Langkah sind das Mehl; was man daraus «backt», zeigt der Lehrer. Der neue Weg deutet Jurus wörtlich (wie Schattenboxen), der alte Weg bildlich. - **Komplexe Einfachheit:** Gegen die KomplexitĂ€t hilft die RĂŒckkehr zu den Grundlagen – aus dem VerstĂ€ndnis der Basics entstehen die komplexen Techniken. - **The Never Ending Way – «Make the Way»:** Jede Bewegung bereitet die nĂ€chste vor (Schlag --> Schritt --> Druck --> Push --> Knie --> Schritt --> Sweep). Ein Beginn, unzĂ€hlige AbschlĂŒsse – etwa neun Takedowns als Finish. - **Substitutionsprinzip:** Stab, Messer und leere Hand ersetzen einander bei derselben Technik. - **Kembangan:** der von Musik begleitete «gefĂ€hrliche Tanz», der die Bewegungen «verblĂŒmt», um ihre Gefahr zu verbergen. - **Same Same, But Different:** Ein echtes System hat einen «Trichter der Anpassung» – verschiedene Angriffe (Schritt rechts/links, Schlag rechts/links) mĂŒnden in denselben Abschluss; der Angreifer ist der, der sich unterscheidet. - **Director – Directee:** Man positioniert sich nicht zum Gegner, man lenkt ihn – durch absichtlich gelassene Öffnungen, in Techniken wie Sapu Luar, Biset Dalam und Putar Kapala. - **Harimau:** ein eigenartiger Bodenstil, in dem die HĂ€nde FĂŒsse und die FĂŒsse HĂ€nde sind – AgilitĂ€t, Koordination, Tempo, Beinkraft.
