Langka Dua

Langka Dua is a form that is very easy to learn but has many layers of information for the diligent student. The basic movements of the form can be learned in a short time but to fully understand all of the meaning of the motions takes effort, in part  due to the simplicity. 

The form begins with circular hand motions and then progresses into a spin and then a series of steps, turns and a final leap. 

The purpose is to introduce the student to circular evasive hand motions that are a contrast to the preceding form Djuru Satu. The Langka of the form are direct and compliment the circular hand motions that dissolve the opponents force. 
Dua provides the student with the soft motions the are a perfect compliment for the hard pukulan movements learned during the study of Djuru Satu. The form has an almost Bagua feel during application that allows one to avoid a direct collision with the opponents attack.
