	Bersilat
		There are several schools of Bersilat, each with two branches, one for public display and one for combat.
		Bersilat emphasizes leg techniques, but punches, throws and holds are so important.
		Generally practiced in semi-seclusion, its moves are passed from master to disciple under a vow of secrecy, reminiscent of Chinese kung-fu.

	History
		Historical records of the practice of Malay Bersilat, both written and in oral traditional Malay folklore, are evident as far back as during the Melaka Sultanate (1400 AD - 1511 AD).
		Bersilat is still practiced widely in Malaysia today.

		When translated bersilat means self-defense but it has an interesting legend that besilat was the name of the woman founder of this art.
		It is said that Bersilat was living in Sumatra in 1511 when she had a series of dreams which taught her this art.
		The association with a woman founder has led to Malaysian weddings often having demonstrations of Bersilat "kata." There is a public form of Bersilat (silat pulat) and a secretive private combative form (silat buah).

		For example, looking at the Malaysian art of Bersilat, trying out a few of their techniques, then saying to yourself, "I like their elbow technique, I think I'll add it to my style" is a step that is self-delusional.
		To understand those techniques you need to go into the Malaysian art and train like they do, feel it, experience it for awhile, both in the doing and the receiving, until you've got a grasp on it.
		You must become a Bersilat man in order to truly understand Bersilat techniques, attitudes, training methods, etc..

	A couple of Silat questions - Kung Fu Magazine Forums
		I do not know why many JKD people think that Penjak Silat is Indonesian and that Bersilat is Malaysian, well at least one of my former JKD teachers claim that.
		Penjak Silat is just a common term that can be used for any Silat styles.
		The term bersilat just means to do silat, the "ber" in front of the "silat" is just like putting the "ing" at the end of a word to imply action (as in running, boxing, punching).
