“Pandai Silat Tanpa Cedera”
Through Perisai Diri you can achieve effective technique without injury. This makes it ideal for children to learn as there is very little chance of injury. There is not much point to learning a fighting art that harms yourself as well as your opponent. Through the teaching method Serang Hindar, students learn the correct body position or ‘pancer’ to be, as an enemy attacks. The pancer determines the ability to attack or avoid an opponent.
“Asah, Asih, Asuh”
The principles of training PD are ‘Asah, Asih, Asuh’. As a family we must follow these principles for the benefit of PD.
Asah is to sharpen, like a sword, regular dedicated action by practitioner for self and others to become persons of better state. Asih is love in the context of giving the most to others with the aim to build up Silat skills together and strengthen the unity as a family.
Asuh is to take care of each other, to help each other, with sincerity, to improve Silat skills together, as one family of
Perisai Diri.
