Kuno Martial arts

The Bukti negara era

Kuno Silat Semangat Baru means ancient art and a new spirit. Kuno Silat used to be called Bukti Negara and was well known by Silat aficionados in the United States and abroad.

The name change represents the new spirit and openness in teaching and sharing the art while actively creating a new generation of strong Silat players. 

Kuno Martial Arts is one of the most efficient self defense arts available today. The quick and nearly effortless sweeps, throws and takedowns makes this art capable of definding even against musltiple attackers.
