Abstract

Purpose. The crescent kick is one of the important basic techniques in the martial art of Pencak Silat, used to gain quick points in a short time in every Pencak Silat match using basic technical movements with agility to move to avoid opponents in the martial art of Pencak Silat. The research method uses a variety of exercises such as using rubber weights in order to strengthen the muscles in the legs, and make the legs not stiff. The purpose of this study is to determine the accuracy when using the crescent kick for someone who studies the martial art of Pencak Silat. The research method used is an experiment with a one group pre-test post-test design. The sample in the study were IPSI (Indonesian Pencak Silat Association) Talang Kelapa martial artists, the sampling technique used was random sampling data and the sample in this study were students of IPSI (Indonesian Pencak Silat Association) Talang Kelapa martial artists totaling 10 athletes. Data analysis used was the t-test. The results of this study showed an average pretest score of 26.7 and a posttest score of 37.1, resulting in a mean difference of 10.4 between the pretest and posttest scores. The study's recommendations suggest that the rubber weights used provide significant resistance to movement, enabling athletes to overcome the resistance and change direction of their kicks.

Abstract

In 2021, the Chinese government proposed the protection of intangible cultural heritage and formulated plans and outlines for this purpose. This paper, aiming to explore the current development status of Wuchang Eighteen Martial Arts under the Procedural Grounded Theory, is dedicated to better safeguarding and transmitting China's outstanding traditional culture. The study utilizes research methods such as literature review, oral history, and on-site investigations. The research findings are as follows: 1. Within the core domain of habits, the cultural development of Wuchang Eighteen Martial Arts exhibits continuity and inheritance. People have started to unearth more information, forming preliminary processes for excavation, preservation, and development. 2. In the core domain of fields, the development of Wuchang Eighteen Martial Arts is initially influenced by historical backgrounds, resulting in periods of stagnation. However, with current community and public support, these practices are now back on track. 3. In the core domain of cultural capital, the exclusivity of Wuchang Eighteen Martial Arts imparts distinctive advantages. Politically, its cultural soft power is considered a cultural resource and capability with multiple values. By exploring and utilizing these resources and capabilities, contributions can be made to societal sustainable development and cultural prosperity. Therefore, based on the Procedural Grounded Theory, we undertake research, distilling the core concept of the "Vitality of Wuchang Eighteen Martial Arts" from the central domains of habits, fields, and cultural capital. This concept reveals the inherent principles it embodies when facing the complex and ever-changing social environment.

Abstract

Martial arts and combat sports have grown significantly in recent decades, both in terms of the number of practitioners and scientific production, establishing themselves as relevant practices for health, athletic performance, and human development. In this scenario, the relevance of teacher training stands out, traditionally linked to the achievement of a black belt or equivalent, but marked by a technical character. Although effective in transmitting motor skills, this model neglects pedagogical and theoretical dimensions that are fundamental for critical and contextualized teaching. There are studies that demonstrate scientifically tested methods for teaching martial arts and combat sports. However, many teachers are unaware of these scientific advances with practical potential. Thus, this study proposes recommendations for teacher training in martial arts and combat sports, such as bringing science closer through theoretical-practical courses, lectures, and refresher programs; valuing master-apprentice guidance; and specializing in specific audiences. Such measures can contribute to professional qualification and the consolidation of more effective, safer teaching practices that are aligned with scientific evidence.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan model pelatihan pencak silat yang berfokus pada teknik sapuan (sapuan) dan angkat (ungkitan) berdasarkan Peraturan Kompetisi Pencak Silat 2022. Teknik-teknik ini sangat penting dalam pertandingan kompetitif karena memberikan kontribusi signifikan terhadap perolehan skor dan membutuhkan tingkat akurasi teknik, keseimbangan, dan koordinasi yang tinggi. Namun, banyak atlet masih mengalami kesulitan dalam menerapkan teknik sapuan dan angkat dengan benar sesuai dengan peraturan yang diperbarui, yang memengaruhi performa mereka selama kompetisi. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian dan pengembangan (R&D) dengan prosedur pengembangan sistematis yang terdiri dari analisis kebutuhan, desain model, validasi ahli, uji coba terbatas, dan pengujian lapangan. Subjek penelitiannya adalah atlet pencak silat. Data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner validasi ahli dan kuesioner respons atlet, kemudian dianalisis secara deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa model pelatihan yang dikembangkan dikategorikan sebagai layak dan praktis untuk digunakan dalam pelatihan pencak silat. Model ini membantu atlet lebih memahami pelaksanaan teknik sapuan dan pengangkatan yang benar sesuai dengan peraturan kompetisi dan mendukung peningkatan performa teknik. Oleh karena itu, model pelatihan ini dapat direkomendasikan sebagai referensi alternatif bagi pelatih dalam mengembangkan keterampilan teknik atlet dalam pencak silat kompetitif.

Abstract

Perspective: Among the many martial arts, disciplines, and styles, only a few have achieved global renown. Managing a company or other martial arts organization requires promotional activities. The broader concept of marketing and the General Theory of Fighting Arts provide the theoretical foundation for this discussion. Problem: Are there any relationships between the type of promotional activities and fame, popularity, and measurable organizational success? How does presence in popular culture (films, books, celebrities) contribute to the international popularity of a given martial art style?. Method: A multiple case study was conducted for five relatively popular martial arts styles. Promotion of the style in films, books, through celebrities, international organizations, and the history of the master was considered. Included: 1) Kyokushin karate; 2) Wing Tsun kung fu; 3) American kenpo karate; 4) Jeet Kune Do kung fu; 5) Chuck Norris System. Results: International popularity is achieved only through a combination of the following promotional activities: film appearances, books, celebrity students, and organizational development. Conclusions: In the absence of such activities, the distinguished master-teacher and his school remain largely unknown or little known. Particularly in martial arts that reject competitive sports, it is difficult to achieve greater international popularity.

Abstract

Perspective. Traditional martial arts are increasingly incorporated into higher education as competitive and co-curricular activities; however, empirical evidence explaining how pedagogical practices influence psychological readiness and performance remains limited, particularly within culturally embedded martial traditions such as silat. Problem. Much of the existing literature prioritises biomechanical or performance-oriented perspectives, offering limited insight into the pedagogical and psychological mechanisms through which training is translated into effective competitive outcomes. This gap risks reducing silat to a culturally neutral sport and overlooks its educational and cultural foundations. Method. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between pedagogical practices, psychological readiness, and competitive performance among Malaysian university silat athletes, with particular attention to the mediating role of psychological readiness and the relative contribution of culturally grounded pedagogy. A quantitative, cross-sectional research design was employed involving 312 silat athletes from public universities in Malaysia. Data were collected using validated questionnaires and analysed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modelling (SEM). Results. The findings indicate that pedagogical practices have a strong, positive relationship with athletes’ psychological readiness, whereas psychological readiness, in turn, significantly predicts competitive performance. Pedagogical practices also demonstrate a weaker but significant direct effect on performance. Mediation analysis confirms that psychological readiness partially mediates the relationship between pedagogy and performance. Conclusions. Among pedagogical dimensions, cultural–philosophical integration emerges as the strongest predictor of psychological readiness. In conclusion, the study provides empirical evidence that pedagogical quality, particularly culturally grounded pedagogy, plays a central role in shaping psychological readiness and enabling consistent competitive performance among university silat athletes. Future research should adopt longitudinal designs, incorporate objective performance indicators, and extend this pedagogical–psychological framework to other traditional martial arts and cultural contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the movement techniques of momtong dollyo and eolgol dollyo chagi kicks in kyorugi athletes at the Orion Taekwondo dojang, which, based on initial observations, still show weak mastery of basic techniques. The approach used is descriptive with a case study method, involving 14 kyorugi athletes selected purposively. Technique assessment was conducted using an assessment rubric and evaluated by judgment through observation of four technical aspects: initial stance, execution, final stance, and dominant kicks. Data analysis was carried out using a quantitative descriptive model with a percentage formula. The research results showed that 65.47% of athletes were classified as athletes who frequently use the eolgol dollyo chagi kick, while 96.42% of athletes mostly used the momtong dollyo chagi kick. It can be concluded that the momtong dollyo chagi kick is more often used in competitions because it is easier to perform compared to the eolgol dollyo chagi kick, with the tendency that the kicks used by athletes aim to score as many points as possible and win the match.
