CCS Silat machete/ golok free flow movement. When you practice to flow make sure to incorporate as much of your material as possible. When you are having trouble coming up with ideas or if you start to feel like you are losing precision, slow down. Every time I walk in the school I do some sort of flow or kembangan. Sometimes combative, sometimes slow and meditative. But always something to keep building to spontaneous, creative, combative moment. For more information on CCS Silat visit LEARNSILAT.NET

CCS Golok/ Machete applications for our Cimande blocks 1-13. These are bladed applications for empty hand concepts. They work well because of how Cimande moves and the range the blocks are done at. The blocks also already teach blade defense so they translate really well to shorter blades like the Golok. For more information visit LEARNSILAT.NET

CCS Silat Golok/ Machete applications for our Cimande Blocks 1-13. Watch for applications with a partner in our next video!

So you have all of your tools available to you at all times. Not blade mode/ empty hand mode. Just the fight and your tools. For more information visit LEARNSILAT.NET
