I just wonder about all of the martial arts out there that you chose Silat to take up? Don't know what part of ohio you're from but I"m sure there are plenty of good studios out there which can help you in any training. :)

Welcome to Martial Talk, Miranda! Lots of good info here, also some foolishness, all fun. I'd like to second Jason's inquiry- why pentcak silat? Seems like an interesting choice for a first martial art.
Oh, and my standard greeting for Ohioans- glad to have another Buckeye on the boards!
Happy Training!

Well, it's a bit wierd...how I started martial arts in the first place. I was first exposed to Tae Kwon Do at age 7...from then I had read a lot about martial arts, but never participated. I had a really strong interest in Pencak-Silat...the forms, the movements, and all the shiny weapons. I may seem immature, but these classes are very important to me. I also study escrima, it's fun.

Hello, Welcome and enjoy your training.....it is easy to quit....and anyone can quit.....loser quit.....Don't Quit when the going gets tough!

Also many times you will feel like you are not learning something....or look like you feel you have not process far? It will be looking back on you past training...from the begining to present.....you will then see the steps you have taken to be where you are at now....

Like a seed planted, it than grows, little at time...each person will form his own tree...some will grow faster, some taller, some stronger, some with many branches.....but the fruits will bear in time......

For a young person.....pursue your goals.....the journey is worth it! ...Aloha
