My 2o years of living in the natural beauty of Indonesia amongst its people have inspired me to develop the Langitanah way of Silat/Kung Fu, a creative project to reach and assist people from all over the world in their individual practice of self discovery and wellness through Martial Art. My experiences and memories of Indonesia are indelible and have affected me in profound ways, showing me the power of relaxing into the moment and silence, the gift of service and community, the elegance of dignity and simplicity and the joy of laughter, and how to respect and live with the elements of nature: water (Indian ocean), fire (volcanoes) and earth (rice fields).

 

Langit (sky) and tanah (earth) is my way of saying with the poetic language of Indonesia that between those two, our life flows.

 

Langitanah consists of:

 

“The golden flower” programme (for women only)

 

“The Art of living through White Crane Silat” programme (for mixed group)

 

They are like initiatory journeys to a martial art practice for well-being and self discovery (see program’s description). Those trainings will open new doors for you: like the pure joy of conscious embodiment, the freedom from self awareness, the satisfaction of experiencing Martial art as Silat once in your life, or perhaps an inspiration to integrate a Silat practice into your daily life, even to commit to a Silat path with the formal White Crane Silat school.
