Panglipur Style
Cecep practices the Panglipur Style, which comes from Garut (Indonesia, Western Java). The specificity of his style is that it combines fast and soft techniques with fast and hard techniques, the principle being the use of both at the same time in order to surprise and to destabilize the opponent.
First, you’ll study in this film the basic techniques of the Golok, thanks to handling exercises. Then comes the learning of the force.
