About
Pencak Silat Anak Harimau is a sports club located in Brisbane, Australia, dedicated to the ancient martial art of Pencak Silat. Pencak Silat originated in Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, and Singapore. It encompasses a multitude of styles that can vary greatly depending on the region and ethnic group.
Anak Harimau, the style practised at the club, is heavily influenced by traditional Silat styles from Indonesia that are rarely taught outside their homeland. This particular style places emphasis on traditional weaponry training and realistic fighting techniques. Training at Anak Harimau promotes a respectful atmosphere, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for all members.

These sessions provide individuals with the opportunity to learn and practise Pencak Silat Anak Harimau under the guidance of experienced instructors.
Throughout the year, Anak Harimau participates in various events and exhibitions to showcase their skills. In 2014, they took part in the IPSI State Title Tournament held in Brisbane, demonstrating their prowess in Pencak Silat. They also participated in the Indoz Festival “Colours of Two Nations,” where they showcased traditional Indonesian martial arts. Additionally, the club has been involved in the Martial Arts Expo in Brisbane, presenting their style and providing information to the public.
