SG Malays | Silat Groups & Perguruan
Silat Groups and Perguruan are organised schools and lineages that preserve, teach, and transmit the martial heritage of the Malay-Nusantara world. A perguruan is more than a training club - it is a disciplined learning community with a clear lineage, philosophy, code of conduct, and curriculum that shapes character as much as combat skill.
These groups function as living institutions: safeguarding techniques, rituals, ethics, and cultural identity, while adapting training for modern contexts such as sport, self-defence, performance, and community education. In short, silat perguruan is where tradition stays alive through practice, structure, and continuity.
