I personally don't know much about it.....But a member on my website is from Indonesia, she posted there that she studied Pencak Silat for well, here is a quote:

"Let's share our opinion about our Tradisional Martial Art, Pencak Silat. Actually, my first martial art is Pencak Silat. I learned it when i was on the 3rd grade of elementry until 6th grade..On the begining on the 6th grade of elementary, i quited to concentrate my self on the final graduation exam..

Pencak Silat has many art just like poomsae, but it uses Indonesian Tradisional Music as the Backsound. It also use many weapon sush as pole, kujang(Indonesian Sword, comes from Sundanese Culture), keris (Indonesian Sword, comes from Javanese Culture), sword, even a fan."


Please keep in mind English is NOT her first language.
The Art sounds VERY Interesting though.
