Djurus Satu is the first long form taught in our system. Prior to learning Djurus Satu students are exposed to foundational legwork and the first 8 Serak Djurus. This base allows students to pick up the movement of the first form with less difficulty.
Satu starts off with movements that will look familiar to any practitioner of Serak or Cimande. Supported punches, elbows and sangats make up the bulk of the movements. The second section has some cimande influence and teaches the student the biset and low movements.
The form is one of the cornerstones of the Kuntao Silat system and can be used on it's own as a complete method of self-defense. It can be performed with various energies and both armed and unarmed.
When I have time I will update this post with a video of the form.
