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.
