Silat seems like a complete system of strikes, take downs, and submissions. It also has weapons. Not many martial arts offer all this, and the movements are fluid and quick. Very cool!

I love that he gives explanation of everything. Silat is a complete system. I study Pentjak Silat Poekoelan Tjimindie. These are very similar. This is real martial arts. Much respect.

"Don't fall for me! I will throw you" love that he says that.

Don’t even let the attacker grab your clothes. Anticipate, go straight for the danger zones using reference points, super efficient movement by Master Maul as always 🥰

What impressive abilities. I never get tired of watching your videos and learning. Much respect Master Maul.

What I like most about his expression of silat is that he executes it from a relatively normal standing position.

Such a great teacher. It's not just his solid technique but also his humour that makes him so endearing. Peace.

His art reminds me of: this world is beautiful but cruel.

Ahhh, good to see someone who knows that there is also a Tactical aspect to Combat However you are able to do it, Sweeping an opponent's arm across his body lessens his potential to continue to attack, and if you can also cause the opponent's body to rotate, their ability to continue to attack is lessened much more. In fact, taking control of an opponent's balance is one of the Keys to increasing your potential for a successful outcome. Looks good.

I like the fact that he doesn't ever ball up his fists or throw a single punch...Just parrying! Beautiful!

Yes . Silat martial art is actually , technics for fighting in real wars .

Always a Real pleasure to see Mr M. Mornie at work.

Very comprehensive and practical Traditional Martial Art. Very kinetic....and lethal. Great demonstration.

I found my Master! I love when he says, "...we're trying to make sure he stops breathing ...". Awesome! For self-defense purposes, of course.

i like it when the teacher tells the student "don't fall for me, I will throw you" :)

Silat in the bottomline is the art of killing, it begins as a self defense mechanism againts wild animal or an invader, in other words the kill or be killed situation so poking eyes, attacking groins, dislocating joints, attacking neck, or any other moves that would be considered "dirty" in any martial arts are legal in Silat (at least outside the official competitive match/tournament of course),...

Really enjoy his videos. So much in common with the Chinese arts and how location plays a part in the style. Kudos!!!

OMG guys, this is street war type of thing, this is for real life stuff, machetes and thing. Don't bring a knife to a silaat fighter.

I love silat i just wish the displays were done with real true to life punches , maybe not with the whole intent but at least with how a punch comes at you in real life Maul is legend have much respect for him

"If he grabs me, he's mine." Whaattt??? That's crazy!

I love Kuntao. I studied Kuntao since I was 4 years old. Kuntao is a silat style whose movements are very tight.

The keyboard warriors are the real master here. Damn i love their comments.

Always so entertaining to watch! Thank you sir. Steve Gresham

Thank you for sharing Sifu Maul Mornie. Awesome basics. Keep up the great work.

Wow this was actually really informative. And I usually only watch what's impressive

very impressive, I like watching Maul's videos, I've been recently studying Silat after many years in other systems, Silat is a good close quarters system, thanks for sharing

Please do dvd's. Great art!

thanks for the experience

Really appreciate this video. Thank you.

Very a tune to his, and his opponents body. Acute accuracy and finesse.

master of angles aka positioning.

SOME OF THE COMMENTS HERE MENTIONED SUBMISSIONS. YES, SILAT HAS MANY SUBMISSIONS MOVES..ITS CALL, "KUNCI", OR LOCKS. WE, MSIAN KOMANDOS DO USE THESE "KUNCI" METHODS TO DISARM OUR ENEMIES IN D JUNGLE FOR SILENT N QUICK KILLS. #22komandos

Pushing a person off a bridge? This has to be the deadliest form of martial arts! Now I know where the saying "he sleeps with the fishes" comes from! Excellent video! There's nothing like seeing a true master at work! He flows from one movement to another!

thanx master i looked this now the second time but still impressed how this simple pressure point moves are still working ... i thought the opponent would not allow you to get one hit in official fight but with your silat training i improved myself bushido... thanks

This guy is frickin amazing

My humble opinion; silat is not for hexagon... But for self defence or art of war.

Well done! Thank you for sharing

I love the humour he incorporates in there...

Master Maul on fire as always... trust me, this would work against a resisting opponent and dare I say it.. even against a keyboard warrior!!

My one of my favorite marital artist Ty :)

lol. this silat should be called, brunei bridge kuntau. I just edit this to add that if you guys want to learn from him, basically, the original, living great grandson of the founder! how cool is that? It's like learning from bruce lee himself!

What's I like about this , is the environment , it's fun

Fascinating!

Very cool. The similarity between this Silat style and Wing Chun is very interesting. Not sure which influenced which, or if it all. Wing Chun lore never mentions any Indonesian influence, but there was Chinese migration to Indonesia. Neutral stance to side neutral stances, getting to the blindside, controlling the elbow. Simultaneous defense and attack. In my WC lineage we pick up our feet, but other lineages twist in place. This Silat master does both...in bare feet. Perhaps in ancient cities and jungles it was possible to twist in place on dusty roads, paths, and this is why it worked. Wearing grippy running shoes, if you twist, you snap your ankles or knees...depending on the surface you are standing on. This master is very skilled...his students are very lucky. Bow of respect. :)

`So clear and direct!

Maul: Reference point . . . Me: Aha, that's why it's called Martial ARTS - Beauty, Poetry, Rithm, Aesthetic flow. Totally engaged with Silat since I saw the first video from Maul Mornie 6 years ago.

Nice tradition

Silat muito bom, o mestre 👏👏👏👏

This guy is fantastic

Note to the camera operator: please resist the temptation to zoom in so far, as this crops out the footwork.

Ahh , grabe astig!!!!

Brilliant!!

Its very much on the circular...in the pakua...very fluid with minimal effort.

Masterful

Amazing man!

Great demonstrations

Silat from indonesia 🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨

Fascinating

I have taken many martial arts (35)+years. I am no No means proficient but silat is not about sport, it's about effective killing in real world situations.

Excellent Smooth flow !

he is very good !!!! amazing technique!!!!! a Master!!!

Outstanding revelation, shifu!! Regards!!

to all the knockers here,especially james c ,u wouldnt last five minutes against maul and would end up in hospital,I have been a judo champion,fought hundreds of kumites and randoris,and ne wazas,boxed,kickboxed and muay thaied and I would say that silat is the most technically correct style Ive ever done,you are judging on one eight minute video,suggest you look at more of his vids to see the wider picture

Thanks!

I love how he told his student dont fall for me I'll do it for you. Lol

Look at how he stand. Is it that's calling "standing only on your bones"? Like when you're standing the way to minimise the muscle's work, and this make him fluid and stable at the same time. Damn, this gives me chills and inspiration at the same time.

I would love to learn Silat. looks brutal.

I'd love to be taught by him.

Energetic.

Wow😮 this is awesome

Very good demonstration and explanation

Excellent!

Excellent excellent excellent

Excelente!!!

A bunch of kids in the comments section who don't know the difference between demonstration and real fight, challenging a master.

For people who don't yet know if you want to "think in Silat" you need to learn how to put a man on the triangle. When you understand the triangle all the reference points, foot traps and sweeps &, striking can start synergizing. It takes a lot of practice but these old combatives systems if done right will end fights super fast. Systems such as this were developed for people to use in pitched melee battles by guys who skill & understanding was proven by fighting and winning in battles. In pitched melee 2 groups collide, at first you have only seconds with each opponent as everybody had been rushing over to the enemy and it takes a moment to slow down; a strike or parry or, blocking shield and then either 1/both falls or 1/both keep running and that other is then forgotten as the next opponent comes into range. The time it takes to merge opposition forces when battle is joined is supremely dangerous because it's a successive blur, like the quick random path for a ball on a really good pinball machine but each encounter carries the intention of killing. Awareness, speed and, purposeful violence- That is as crazy as it gets, once the forces have been joined the pace should mellow as everyone takes stock of the current state a now thinking returns and tactics improvised to serve any planned strategies but in the joining period combatives skills are the key. Most violent encounters as an adult will be circumstantial; an attempted robbery, an ambush at a bar, an argument with a stranger that quickly turns physical- whatever it is it you didn't pre-plan on violent action combatives skills are what these situations call for.......... ..... ....... and remember guys like Musashi, he fought 60 duels and retired undefeated: these skills can be honed.

good segment

ELEGANT MOVEMENTS OF SILAT

Great Flow !

Maul mornie silat style is for the rich people during ancient time..that is why..the body posture always steady..and the style always be in the upright position..now i could differenciate between silat practice from the farmer and merchant or rich society!

I like silat...

Nice work! 💪👍👍👍

Do you do training camps I'd be willing to travel to wherever u are and train for a month or so.

I will be. Gladly. ,, to learn that. To you

Simply awesome! Where can I learn this so complete martial art in Mexico?

Ok talaga po

Thank you very much!

Belajar Beladiri Mi Amigo y Maestro de Pencak Silat .El guerrero tarde o temprano deberá combatir, cuando lo hagas usa todo tu aprendizaje, usa sus codos, manos, rodillas, cabeza, piernas, porque un guerrero sabe que no solo su espada es la extensión de su espíritu guerrero, y cuando hayas vencido nada hay que celebrar, levanta y abraza a tu hermano guerrero pues te a dado digna pelea...y porque también es una guerrero Shalom..-

Very good

Many of these hand grabs could be neutralized by turning your wrist into the thumb and index fingers of the one doing the grabbing. A quick attempt to escape at the weakest point of a hold is worth a try if needed.

That was amazing. 👍

No martial arts better than the other,,it dpends the person how he apply it,,SILAT,FMAJUIJITSU,MUAYTHAI, ETC... all are good self dpends,,but the quition is can you apply it perfectly,in a real fight,,....

Very Good and Educational.. Thanks..

This is very good instruction, it's second level striking. Just wondering if they teach the star first in this art. Or if they teach the sun and moon and your video is just on the star. I'd like to see more of this style I see bits of the ancient art mixed in the videos online. And wish there was a section that just delt with it instead of having to sift through everything.

So strong

It's a very practical combative MA as well as painful for the receiver...

very nice move

Id like to see a comparison between Kali and Silat
