Indonesian Fighting Arts Seminar in Kansas

[Andrew Evans]

Sorry I didn't post this sooner but I just ventured into this section...

Mr. Bob Orlando will be teaching a two-day workshop in Topeka, Kansas on Saturday, December 18 from 9am-5pm and Sunday, December 19 from 9-11:30am.

The focus will be a variety of combat principles from Chinese kuntao and Dutch-Indonesian pukulan pentjak silat. Mr. Orlando is a long-time student of Dutch-Indonesian master Willem de Thouars and an accomplished instructor in this own right.

In addition to writing the book "Indonesian Fighting Fundamentals," Mr. Orlando has published "Martial Arts America" and six highly acclaimed video titles. Last September's Blackbelt magazine featured an article on his Reflex Actions Drills. I would go out on a limb (pun intended) and say he is the best when it comes to leg trapping.

The cost is $90 for both days and registration is limited so that those in attendance can get more personalized training.

Please contact me by Thursday, December 16th if you are interested in attending or would like more information.

Respectfully,

I have to say thank you to Mr. Orlando for coming out to Kansas. It was an honor and privilege to have him out here. He helped to energize our group and showed us a lot of great drills and principles. We highly recommend that any martial artist looking to broaden their perspectives give the Indonesian Fighting Arts a good hard (and soft) look especially from one of Bob Orlando’s seminars. His teaching method is highly organized and logical. His seminar and material will not only help make you a better practitioner, but also a better teacher.
