Silat Serak Jurus allow you to develop proper positioning for operating fast, powerful and efficient combinations in a short space. Serak Jurus are not techniques, rather root movements that lend effectiveness to whatever techniques they may become.

The circumstances dictate what exactly those movements will manifest into. 

The more thoroughly you ingrain the Jurus the easier it will be to cut through an opponent's structure. The more deeply you understand the underlying laws and principles of each movement, the more possibilities you will realise. 

Ultimately you will reach a depth of  internal and physical coordination, where automatic and devastatingly effective techniques will flow spontaneously in any given situation.

The Serak Sambuts (throws, takedowns) are designed to develop a response to unpredictable behaviour by creating an air tight defence and attacking combinations from various body angles.

The principles of balance, leverage, timing and superior body positioning are applied. 

Throws and takedown techniques are used to upset the opponent's balance and gain control. 

In time the student learns that combat effectiveness is not based on specific techniques but on mind and body principles and attributes.

The Serak sambutan develops timing, speed and reflexes while maintaining a continually flowing motion. As you flow sensitivity takes over, enhancing your natural instinctive abilities and the necessary body alignment to deliver effective power. 

The student becomes expert in perceiving the body instructions of the opponent resulting in superior anticipatory performance. Just before the person attacks cues are available about body positions and limb movements that allow you to predict the direction and force of response. 

The continuous opening and closing, or the change from offensive to defensive in an instant brings the students physical and mental functions into full play. Sambutans create a sense of position, a sense of movement and a sense of force. Resulting in a structure and base which generates power efficiently, with the least amount of wasted energy and movement.
