KunTao Silat TriAngle Exercises

[@Soaring_Hawk]

Single most useful exercise for sweeps and foot trips I've ever practiced. It is easier to pull a man over a leg or perform a foot trip or sweep than it is to swing him around your hip or over your shoulder.

[@stevegartin]

Simplicity succeeds

[@mattpatterson9128]

Steve's forms are perfect. His Juru Satu is amazing. He really is a M.A.. Genius.

[@conradbui]

Guru Steve is no joke. I have crossed hands with him and he is the real deal.

[@TheSubwaysurfer]

I believe you with certain people you can tell by the look in their eyes the carriage their physique and their movement that they’re not just doing this for recreation or for points. He’s an excellent representative of this martial art

[@myellis100]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge of KunTao. The Triangle or what some refer to as the V Step is highly effective in real life combat situations. Even the American Military utilizes certain angles from the triangle in their hand to hand combat training. Please post some more videos showing the effectiveness of the triangle against an attacker in real time. Ous.

[@TheSubwaysurfer]

The similarities of various martial arts are so amazing at the beginning of the video where he’s in the front stands for give me a compliment Karate background and that’s what we call it, when he started doing the very elbow techniques quickly and spontaneously it looks exactly like a sequence done from the African-AmericanArt called 52 blocks.

[@TheSubwaysurfer]

OK the video was real cool instruction wise and technique wise but it got weird in the end when the narrator started doing this twilight zone thing

[@kd5dvmkatdaddie114]

Thank you. Naga Satu used triangulation to sweep into the dead zone and strike.

[@stevegartin]

Good eye for detail!

[@m0nkeydo0dle]

im 18, and my dad used to teach kuntao and arnis to the public wen i was a kid, but he still teaches me till now, no one has probably heard of a fighting style called kaibiganan, explosive impact on close range fighting. its truely a challenging art to learn, training is very different.

[@teschiomalessere]

just starting learning...and your demo is great. thanx

[@ANGELSGYMSINGH]

Very, very, very nice.... Man I learned alot watching this adept. Simple, elegant, deadly... slipping while striking froin the arms and legs... The root is so solid on this adept. The application of this technique for infighting is scary if used against lunging opponent. Even thogh this is a linear leg motion drill when first learning it, with regular practice I see the circular motions of the Tiger clawing to be expressed. This is the perfect foot counter to being circled by a Bagua adept.

[@aquehueva]

Superb footwork, very effective when properly applied.

[@sweeneytodd6368]

[@mdsclev8433]

Great dance moves.

[@TheSilatiger]

not so,some silek came from india,persia and greece,brought over during the srivijaya period by hindu warriors,it is related to silambam and kalari payattu,kun tao came much later from china through spice trade,there is much more grappling in sumatran styles then kun tao,as the main root is said to be greek-the prince of styles i.e alexander the great- silek is old style of silat

[@vincentreynolds934]

Saw Chuck Norris in Walmart.

[@asarheruamenra2805]

Good knowledge.

[@stevegartin]

It's my pleasure, I appreciate your comment.

[@MrOphachew]

Thank you. Do you have or know of any AKTS schools or classes in the Flint, Mi. area.

[@altarik]

@GaolisVideoLog good to all what you said.. I believe Arnis is the only martial if not made, developed in Philippines. And if it is made in RP, Arnis should be the national sport not Sepak Takraw (which is a game introduce by Malaysia ). And Yes!!! I beieve there is only one martial art that I know made and develop by a Japanese which is Aikido. I don't think Aikido has Chinese root .

[@ااا-خ6ط9غ]

Tank you

[@anakmiskin5702]

I like this move... 👍👍🙏🙏

[@staninfire1]

Enjoyed the work.

[@leopurpleman]

Kuntao maybe came from china...but silat is not.....it is from Indonesian archipelago, and kali in philipines are made from silat....

[@Mjguipo1982]

Remember my name I am Michael from the book of enoch. Nobody can come to my fathers house but through me. Please start following Native Americans 10 commandments for you to be save by me and my mother Earth.

[@richlistening5511]

@James Carol Unlike the martial arts of east asia, silat is much different... silat has a growing base in the indonesian archipelago.. Its genuine and natural... the movement of silat more complex, shorter and more effective attack direction.. This is an adaptation of indonesia's natural forested and inspired by unique animal which exist in that tropical forests...

[@stevegartin]

Hey Brian! What a joy to hear from you. Please drop by the main site and catch the link to the AKTS Forum; I'd love to hear what you've been up to and how your brother Kris is doing.

[@Paul-jp8zz]

Reminds me of Reeders/Sikes footwork

[@MrSolitude14]

kune tao, kun tao, kuntaw, kuntau or what ever it calls, based on chinesse-hakka MA. but the uniqueness of this MA is on the blend of it upon local MA in indonesia. based on this `blend process` it become distinguish compared to the main-land MA back in china. so basically it is indonesian MA if we want to talk it as `a product-result` MA.

[@ronin752]

@GaolisVideoLog I am sorry, but if you go back far enough, the roots of it evolve from China. You may not know it, but Japan didn't even have a unique style of fashion until the 16th century. Their clothing, forms of writing, and some religious influence (Chan or Zen Buddhism) came from China. Seeing as though the Chan form of Buddhism is believe to be imported from the same man that founded Shaolin martial arts, Iai and Juijutsu probably have roots in China too.

[@DjRodimusPrimeXyZ]

excellent vid, i will practice these thanks.

[@m0nkeydo0dle]

im planning on putting up a video of the fighting style sometime soon wen im free. i tried looking for it here on youtube to see some other forms and styles of kaibiganan, but couldn't find any. if you know it Guru Steve, and can put up a video, i'd love to watch. great video btw. keep a strong spirit.

[@silatk]

Nice, Very nice thank you. Thank you very much!!

[@erham28]

that is from mindanao in lanao delsur we col that kuntaw silat and speritual.

[@hipawkets]

still learning I follow close love it

[@kurf85]

@MDNSBS unfortunately I have to disagree with you because I was taught by my master that learning a name is like learning to walk, you can learn alot of ones technique and more. Furthermore kuntau/kuntao/kundao is not an art taught to the emperors royal guard but rather an art taught and use by the shaolin monks and was spread throughout the south east asia when the shaolin was running from the rulers of China. The difference between kuntau master and shaolin master is that shaolin is a priest.

[@jamesejudy3]

Guru Steve, how is Uncle Bill doing? Hope all is good, great vid!

[@paulwiltz3007]

Great video👍

[@luvatoyota]

Can anyone do this?

[@hulubalangriau9527]

👍🏻

[@kurf85]

@MDNSBS go to a temple and learn from themselves, or better yet look for a community of HAKKA Chinese. Learn Kuntao from them or ask about Shaolin Chun-fa=the way of the shaolin fist... and you will see the similarity. There is no animal style in Shaolin nor Kuntao. Just fist, every style is called a fist not animal. The animal 'styles' are there just to cover the movement so your opponent would not know what fist style you will be using.

[@mercenario6915]

👏👏👏👏🍂

[@altarik]

@GaolisVideoLog so sad to see that almost all of the martial arts or if not all, most of it in Asia are from China. I heard that Karate was not also Japanese made martial art but also introduce by Chinese migrants who settle in Okinawa. Therefore the Karate that you may found in mainland Japan was spread from Okinawa. I assume that Tae Kwondo was also introduce from China... What a great nation it was before..

[@boyjuice3414]

Dude not every thing is from china. They wanna take credit for Everything.

[@stevegartin]

Training the trapping and hitting mechanisms.

[@kurf85]

[@fixationremodeling]

Stefe Fartin is a joke not worth repeating, even in his own back yard.

[@stevegartin]

A channel with one video and 10 views. . . pathetic! Your opinion is unworthy of comment.

[@altarik]

it seems like this martial art was derive from Chinese Kung Fu.

[@jfp284]

Lol I could hear my teacher Richard clear in the background. Yep Yep. Lol

[@HarperDearMilo]

1:56. Squirrel! running own the tree!

[@wellywella434]

Original Kuntao is Chinese martial arts and brought only to South East Asia during colonialization and not before that, and this is not real Kuntao, It`s localized version of it which means already mix with Silat discipline. There is a real story of a Betawi Silat Legend named Si Pitung ( a native jakartan the capital city of Indonesia ) where he defeated some chinese Kuntao master and other chinese kungfu bodyguard that guarding chinese landlords in native Indonesian land during colonialization, using Betawi folks Silat. Si Pitung was like Robinhood against social injusttice during colonialization and he had to fight against those chinese and the dutch colonialization authorities. My point is that this Kuntao is chinese untill someone learned it and tried to nativize it.The reason I am telling you this because I am so fed up with this Kuntao`s version of Indonesian ancient history that is describing as if Silat and our acestors came from India and China around 4000 years and so. No thats not true due 2 reasons, 1) Genetically Chinese and Indian DNA are much closer to European than to Indonesian and 2) because our ancestors are either 2600 years earlier arrived in the region or are indeed native to the region ( South East Asia ) based on 2 different scientific theories. Our ancestors exsistence and civilizations are so much underestimated and overshadowed by Chinese and Indian civilization, while they didn`t even know how to sail out to the ocean, atleast not untill our ancestors showed them how to..
