interesting link to Silat techniques for comment

Post by Jerry Martin »

Hi all,

I found this link posted on another forum and thought I'd post it here for your comments.

It looks familiar to me. Almost like a foreign language that you can get the gyst of but not completely understand.

The poster thought it looked remarkably like Sera.

What are your thoughts?

Peace, Jerry
