Silat Buka Lingkaran Silat Buka Lingkaran Welcome to Silat Buka Lingkaran (which translates “Open Circle”).
(1)

This Silat system is a beautiful, dynamic and effective martial art with it’s influence and roots being from Nusantara (old Indonesia) and modern Indonesia. Having had enquiries about my Silat influences and connections recently, I felt it would be helpful to clarify things. I intend to keep researching and growing in my martial arts journey into the future - as I’m sure we all do. For the record,

Silat Buka Lingkaran is my development and interpretation of the years of training, research and study I have carried out. It is not associated with or connected to any other Silat arts or organisations (or indeed any other distinct martial arts styles). While I have the greatest respect and admiration for all other martial arts and teachers, I am training and teaching Silat Buka Lingkaran as distinct and separate form other styles and associations. This is a beautiful art that I hope people can enjoy and grow in at their own rate and I will do my best to pass on the relevant information and skills to those that might be interested in this way of training.

**Available for private lessons & seminars!**

Flow Is Control

Guru Alvin says this often: “No gaps.”

A gap is when you move… stop… then move again.

In a real situation, hesitation costs you time. In training, hesitation breaks your focus.

Movement should be continuous. One action melts into the next.

Example: Think of pouring water from one cup to another. The stream doesn’t stop halfway. It flows smoothly.

That’s how your transitions should feel.

Flow doesn’t mean fast. It means connected.

When you remove the gaps, you remove doubt.

As part of our current promotion, we’ve been releasing selected lessons from the Silat Open Circle library for you to explore.

So far, we’ve shared sessions covering:
• Body mechanics — how correct movement is built
• Kembangan — the internal side of Silat, breath and focus
• Physical conditioning — strength and resilience to support the art

These lessons give a small insight into how the system is taught — structured, progressive, and rooted in real practice.

The lessons are available to watch until Friday, so if you’re curious, take your time and explore them while they’re live.

👉 Head over to the site to check out each lesson
