Before you skip over it, wait: this isn't just another forms video. In fact, it's nothing like any form you've ever seen. Rather than showing you a dry collection of martial arts moves that have no basis in real-world combat, best-selling author Bob Orlando and Paladin Press have put together a video production that teaches hard-core fighting skills in a format that's easily learned, repeatable and practical. Drawn from the best elements of the Indonesian combat art of kuntao-silat, this video shows you the only two forms you'll ever need.Combining the author's logical, detailed instruction with multiple camera angles and slow-motion photography, you will learn two of the most fundamental forms of kuntao-silat: Enam Matjan and Elbow Exercise. Both teach the important combat basics of angle, leverage and body positioning to win any fight, including dealing with multiple assailants or fighting from a disadvantaged position. In addition, Orlando shows strikes with both the open hand and the fist that will literally stun your opponent with pain and leave him open to devastating leg destructions to disrupt his base.This is the forms video for people who don't like forms and is a must-have for any complete combat library. The video set includes a 46-page workbook on Enam Matjan and Elbow Exercise. For information purposes only.

Excellent video! Both forms are laid out in staged ...
Excellent video! Both forms are laid out in staged sequences with detailed explanations of each technique followed by practical self-defense applications for each sequence. I've been training in Martial Arts for over 40 years and Bob ORLANDO's method of teaching mirrors my own. Bob has brought me into his world of Kuntao Silat and I'm hooked.

I LOVE THIS VIDEO SET!
I own numerous forms videos, but these are absolutely two of my favorites! The Fighting Forms of Kuntao Silat are very fluid, but incredibly practical. Not only does Mr. Orlando break the forms down from several angles to make them easier to learn, but he goes into great detail to share his knowledge on the applications, concepts, and principles within the forms. Then, as if that wasn't already enough, there is a surprise scene or two that are absolutely hilarious. I won't ruin it for you, but you would just have to see those scenes to appreciate them.Obviously, for those who have trained with Mr. Orlando in person, they get the best of both worlds. Hands-on training with Mr. Orlando is absolutely the way to go and the videos are great as an addition to their training and for reference. However, if you have not been able to train with Mr. Orlando in person, this is definitely the next best choice. These videos are worth their weight in gold.My best,Jeff McLaughlinInternational Network of Christian Martial Artists[...]

Worth Every Penny!
There are hundreds of videos on Silat and Kuntao out there, with more coming out every month. It's easy to spend a lot of money on something that wasn't worth the box it came in. However, if you are looking for some serious insight into the Indonesian martial arts, Bob Orlando's "Fighting Footwork of Kuntao and Silat" and "Fighting Forms of Kuntao-Silat" are the perfect place to start.
