Pencak Silat

Our pencak silat is a family based pencak silat.  The traditional martial art of the Indonesian and Malay people known as pencak silat from the work “Pencak” which meant to coordinate physical movements and “Silat” to coordinate mind movements in harmony with the physical and environment.  Normally there are 3 type pencak silat known:
1.Ilmu bela diri/knowledge for self defence
This type of pencak silat can be learnt by anyone and known to have “aliran” or group just like most martial art.  It is also have sport aspect in it that allowed the competition to be held yearly.  The basic teaching of this pencak silat is known as “Jurus”
2.Seni bela diri/art of self defence.
This type of pencak silat specifically practice by people in particular region such as silat Bali, silat Jawa, silat Sunda, silat Padang, silat Melayu/Malay silat, etc.   Although it is a martial art based but the movements represent the characteristic of the people native to the region and therefore the main focus also is for art/dance not sport.  The basic teaching of this pencak silat is known as “Langkah”
3.Silat keluarga/Family based silat.
This type of pencak silat normally only taught within the family and therefore represents family history and its unique characteristic.  It is very different than other pencak silat as focus on esoteric aspect of the silat to achieve the meditative state which is very uniquely develops by the family elders.  Unlike other pencak silat for silat keluarga the onus and responsibility fall into the teacher more than the students and it is also known as “Jodoh” or meant to be.  There are many strict rules applicable for this silat and the basic rule is to focus on spiritual evolvement through traditional art and ritual techniques of movements, fasting, and meditation which aimed to control the 5 senses.
After seeking permission Mas Ron Takdare adopted some Australian and Indonesians in Melbourne and Darwin as his brothers and sisters and changes the name of the pencak silat to become “Dharma Nusantara Silat”.  They are now teaching the pencak silat solely for the purpose of sharing the knowledge in brotherhood and sisterhood while at the same time helping others especially orphan and disadvantage children through sponsorship.
