KHTC - Malay Tekpi / Sai

In Japan , it was called Sai, in Indonesia it called Trisula and in Malaysia it called Tekpi. A weapon with three branch, two short at side and a long branch in the middle. It was told and known as the king of all weapons. How true it is, we have to find out what is the significant of this weapon. The design look the same weather Japanese or Malay tekpi/sai but in full view it is totally different. The Japanese tekpi/sai are build in round while the Malay tekpi/sai are build in having sides. The other different the Japanese tekpi/sai are not that sharp at the edge while Malay tekpi/sai are sharp.

Malay Tekpi

In terms of maneuvering it is almost the same, the used of mother finger to changed the position of the weapon. The used of the edge and beginning of the tekpi/sai which are look like an hammer. All this point are used for striking and locking. The two short branch function are the most important in maneuvering in this weapon art. There are flip ,stab ,throw ,resist ,fend are the main criteria of the tekpi. In Silat Seni Gayong the art of tekpi are consists of movement, escape, hitting and locking which are utilized with the tekpi.

All the training in this art are to make ready for the student to used tekpi as a weapon. How it will counter with various weapons, How to flip ,stab etc and especially countering other weapons with throw, fend etc. All this techniques will be taught accordingly as per such curriculum in order for mastering the art, especially when maneuvering and changing the movement of the weapon.

May we have an idea how it works and we are pleased to share a video which can be view below:

KHTC - New Gelanggang {Dojo}

We had a training place before which are located at Kajang,Selangor. Due, to some reason we had to closed the place. Until then we are searching for a new location and a better than what we had previously. Finally, all the searching ended at a place called Padang Jawa,Shah Alam. Yes, there is where our new training center is situated. Just opposite of Padang Jawa Road Transport Department {JPJ} and is easy access by bus, by owned transportation and the best part of it by KTM Train station Padang Jawa. It is just walking distant from the train station. If compared with our previous dojo this is far than better logistics location.

Working are taken place to decorate the gelanggang and cleaning before officially used for training. Situated at 3rd floor and at an end lot with easy parking, restaurant, view and calm environment for good training. After training there are a vast shop lot of restaurant ,should be a place for chatting and building and tighten the brotherhood of Gayong. The location is very centered where all needs are there.

The Dojo Under Renovation. At The End Is A Small Room For Accomodation

Alhamdulillah, thanks to all of their effort in getting the dojo and a good and upgraded training place. The gelanggang is fixed with small rooms for "anak-anak Gayong" to stay while taking care of the place. For all anak-anak Gayong when they are on trip and at that time happen to be in that area and needed a place for a short night are welcome. It would not be a five star hotel but should be comfort for a family of Silat Seni Gayong.

Hope with this new development Silat Seni Gayong will be more accepted and respected as one of the leading martial arts in Malaysia and internationally. Long live Silat Seni Gayong.
