Overview

There are many kinds of martial arts in Indonesia, and so does in Bali. Lately, besides the Pencak Silat, there is a traditional martial art developed in Bali. It is called “Mepantigan”. Basically, mepantigan means to throw or to knock something down. The traditional martial art concentrates on locking and throwing the enemy. It combines some self-defenses, such as taekwondo, silat, capoeira, kickboxing, and judo, and includes various elements of Balinese culture, such as Balinese music, dance, and costumes. Those are the factors that make this self defending martial art a hauling sport, and it has now been prepared as one of the most attractive and interesting Bali tourism attraction.
