Pencak Silat Pukulan Cimande Kombinasi

2009-03-27T15:36:00.000-04:00

Overview

Pukulan Cimande Kombinasi (PCK) is a style of Indonesian Pencak Silat developed and taught by Guru Besar Jerry Jacobs. Pencak Silat is a general term used to describe martial arts that come from the island nation of Indonesia. PCK encompasses all 8 Areas of traditional Pencak Silat and can be roughly translated as:

"Pukulan" denotes "hitting" or "striking".

"Cimande" is a well known style of Pencak Silat in Western Java.

"Kombinasi" can be translated as "combination".

Pukulan Cimande Kombinasi is a full-range martial art. It includes the use of several edged and impact weapons, fighting while in a grounded position, grappling and multiple opponents training. The style of fighting is distinguished by free flowing, writhing movements, off-timing, integrated footwork and draw stance strategies. It is also characterized by a close fighting position and fast continuous hitting. The strategy is to close with the opponent such that it is possible to sweep them to the ground in a violent way, then follow this attack with some kind of finishing technique. There is heavy emphasis on attacking the limbs of the opponent, and delivering fast disorienting strikes to the face, followed by more substantial strikes to the head and body.

Style Content

The style is organized around the use of five primary animal techniques- Monkey, Tiger, Snake, Crane, Dragon and the 11 Princliples of Combat.

The Monkey (Monyet, Kera) portion of the style uses slaps, grabs, punches and elbows, changing position from high to low.

The Tiger (Pamacan) utilizes a very low stance, and seeks to smash the opponents limbs and drag him down to continue the fight on the ground. The tiger also fights in a full supine (Harimau) position where the practitioner is lying fully on the ground.

The Snake (Ular) style comes in two varieties, cobra (Sendok) and python (Sawa). The cobra style uses half-fists to deliver fast strikes to the eyes and soft body tissues, and the python attempts to strike then wrap the opponent's limbs and body to break, strangle and throw them.

The Crane (Blekok) style uses high stances and leaps, together with open hand strikes.

And Lastly, the Dragon (Raja Naga) is a synthesis of the other four animals, together with a strategy of deployment which emphasizes internal techniques and highly deceptive movements.

The movements of the art are also taught according to a secret method which leads to an increase in 'tenaga dalam' (energy) in the body.

Pukulan Cimande Kombinasi also has a system of meditation and metaphysical development which includes meditations designed to draw the four elements (water, earth, fire, air) into the body for various combative and spiritual purposes, and the practice of animal spirit possession, in order to aid fighting skill. Mantras and magic circles are used, along with a highly developed system of visualization and breathing.

Main influences:

Pukulan Cimande Kombinasi is based on Guru Besar Jerry Jacobs extensive training over the past 13 years with Pendekar William Sanders in Pukulan Cimande Pusaka and the combination of these sources:

Poekelan Tjimande - This is the style of Pencak Silat propagated by Willy Wetzel, a Dutch-Indonesian immigrant to the United States. A handful of schools in the United States teach variations of 'Poekelan' as it is also known.

Pendekar Banten (PPPSBBI) - This is an organization of Indonesia Pendekars whose goal is to promote traditional style Pencak Silat.

Cimande Tarik Kolot - Cimande Pusaka as taught in the village of Tarik Kolot by Pendekar Mama Sukarmo, who traces a direct lineage to Embah Kahir.

Cimande Kombinasi - This is a style created by Mas Jud in the twentieth century, based upon traditional Cimande, Cikalong, the five animal silat styles, and other sources. It is currently taught by Mas Jud's descendants living on Java in the town of Cilisung.

Ilmu Surapati - Pendekar Sartono claims inheritance of a lineage of Ilmu (mystical science) which traces its origin to Untung Surapati.
