Silat, a traditional martial art originating from Southeast Asia, captivated Abdur-Rahman during his studies in Kung Fu. He first trained in the Malaysian style under Master Arifeen in London, reaching Instructor level and continuing to teach and refine his skills.
His dedication led him to study the Indonesian style with Master Abdun-Nur, and later, to deepen his knowledge under the guidance of Grandmaster Firdaus in Indonesia. Abdur-Rahman’s expertise was further solidified during his time in Malaysia with Master Shamsun-Noor, where he received licenses to teach both the Malaysian and Indonesian forms of Silat.
Today, he focuses on practicing and teaching Traditional Silat through his full-time school, Silat asli Martial Arts.
