Pukulan Cimande Pencak Silat UK

This is just to make anyone interested, aware of my plans for the development of Pukulan Cimande here in the UK.
My aim with the support of my Guru and friend Guru Liam McDonald is to set up training "cells" or groups in several of the big cities here in the UK.
I'm based in Nottingham which is roughly the fourth largest city in England situated in the heart of the East Midlands couple hours on a train north of London and south of Manchester.
We have an international airport and a large city center and would, apart from being my home ; be a good center anyway for the spread of this beautiful system of Pencak Silat.
Im starting small but not without drive, direction and determination I will be teaching the system now called Pukulan Cimande Combat which briefly is Pukulan Cimande Pusaka, but with slightly more empathies on the combat application and animal mannerism of the original system.
I know that there as been a lot of talk and stories about the former system, but I would like it known that I'm all about the training and not one for politics so anyone in the UK , who is SERIOUS , and I do want to re-iterate serious, about wanting to train in this system is more than welcome to email me, either here, or at my personal email simpson76@tiscali.co.uk either to answer any further questions or to arrange training either privately, to attend any of the Pukulan Cimande workshops planned for next year (contact me for details)
I can assure you all here, that I will make the time for you and will do all humanly possible to help anyone truly serious; but I have no time for ego's ,shit-stir's or martial artists who just wanna talk my time is precious to me
So what ever your level and open mind, love or at least interest in Pencak Silat and a willingness to train are the only requirements
"It is said Pencak Silat "Calls" to its students and all that heed the call; and answer are rewarded"
So a big hello to you all from the UK , hope to see you all again soon.
omG.... i am really surprised that Pencak Silat is well known abroad too
Thanks for helping us conservating Asian ( especially Indonesian) Ancient Heritage
Nice videos, we will have to get a couple up of the sparring we did with Felix when he was in Ireland.
New video added off Felix knife sparring in Germany the week after the Irish seminar
Training with felix was fantistic, he is a great fighter and a cool guy! Big thanks to liam for organising such a big event! I'm just about healed from the numerous bruises, but no pain no gain as they say!!
Good luck to all, who about to attend the Felix Valencia seminar
Hey All
