Kuntao - Silat
Saturdays 12pm & Tuesdays 5:30 pm
You may have never heard of Kuntao Silat. So to give you an idea of it, you have to imagine Kung Fu taken to Malaysia where it was used in tribal conflicts for a few centuries. It adds efficiency in movement, damaging your opponent with every contact, and then finishes them with a combination of strikes, joint locks, throws, chokes, and weapons used in brutal combinations to ensure that you can get free safely. The idea is to defeat your opponent with brutal efficiency in seconds.
It is also a style that can be learned by all ages without risking harm to self, and is taught without overloading you with information by emphasizing principles and concepts. Like our Aikido class, this class works well both on its own or as a companion art, and equally is beneficial for beginners and very experienced martial artists.
The Experience
Instructor: Coach Amonte
If you are the kind of person who is fascinated by the types of horrible things you can do to bad people, you are really going to like this class.
Your first class you are probably going to spend an hour in front of a mirror working on an elbow strike movement that is going to feel repetitive, but is a foundational movement and you should really try to optimize this, because your next class you are going to use it in scary ways as coach Amonte starts adding in brutally efficient movements and concepts.
