Advance confirmation is required
Class arrangements can occasionally change because of holidays, teachers, venues, or private events. If you are attending for the first time, send an enquiry before travelling so that the correct session and access details can be confirmed.
Contribution, payment, age, suitability, and any special participation arrangements are confirmed directly before attendance rather than assumed from this page.
What training may include
- Posture, body organisation, balance, timing, and movement quality.
- Jurus, langkah, footwork, striking lines, entries, and close-range control.
- Partner practice, practical applications, sensitivity, and correction.
- Etiquette, restraint, attention, and conduct under pressure.
- Supplementary breath-body or internal exercises where appropriate.
The core work is identified as Silat Cimande Asli Tarikolot. Related arts or supplementary material are described separately rather than blended into the lineage of the core transmission.
Your first visit
- Send a training enquiry with your location and relevant experience.
- Wait for confirmation before travelling to the venue.
- Wear clean, modest, comfortable clothing suitable for movement.
- Do not buy specialist equipment until you have been advised what is needed.

Beginners, experienced practitioners, and young people
Enquiries are welcome from people with different levels of martial arts experience. Adult and children's sessions are listed separately above. Parents or guardians should contact us before a child attends for the first time so that the appropriate safeguarding and participation arrangements can be confirmed.
Conduct and progression
Students are expected to listen carefully, practise with control, respect boundaries, and avoid filming or publishing material without permission. Attendance does not itself confer permission to teach, certify, appoint others, or represent Silat Cimande Asli Tarikolot publicly.
