02:00Modern Combat Masters: Guest, Silat Teacher Johnny Silmon
Wednesday January 30, 2013. 6 pm pacific/9 pm eastern.
GM Darrell Sarjeant and Sifu Restita DeJesus welcome Silat teacher Johnny Silmon to the show!
Name: Johnny Silmon
D.O.B: 6 August 1971 (Age 41)
P.O.B: London, England
Styles Practiced: Pencak Silat Anyar Cimande Buhun (own synthesis)
Silek Tuo Pagu Pagu, Maenpo Cikalong, Silat Para Wali, Benjang Gulat (Sundanese wrestling), Sabhandar
Organisation: The W.A.I (Warrior Arts of Indonesia). The mission of The W.A.I is to preserve and promote the precious martial arts of Indonesia.
Johnny Silmon began his formal martial arts training at the age of 11 where he took Judo as part of his Physical Education on the school curriculum. He found he was a natural and won the Gold medal in the inter-schools Brent Judo Championships. However after this initial year he found himself seeking a more dynamic style and began training Wing Chun for around twelve months before once again looking for another style. He found it as a 13 year old in the form of Northern Mantis Kung Fu but with a Kuntao edge to it. His teacher Sifu Jerry Tann was Indonesian of Chinese origins and it could be said this laid the seeds for Johnny to later go on to investigate Indonesian Pencak Silat. He trained as a private student under Sifu Tann from 1984 to 1987 and then again for a time in 1990.

Modern Combat Masters w/ Guest Maha Guru Cliff Stewart
Our special guest for 12/5/12 is Maha Guru Cliff Stewart, who will be making his 2nd guest appearance on the Modern Combat Masters show.
Who is Cliff Stewart?
By Master Instructor Masaad Ayoob
A veteran of over 25 years in the Executive Protection field, Cliff Stewart has provided elite bodyguard services to the rich and famous, including Wesley Snipes, Larry Flynt, Mr. T., Joan Collins, Muhammad Ali, Stevie Wonder, James Garner, members of royal families and foreign diplomats. He is the one who trains the teachers of Law Enforcement, Federal Agencies and Martial Arts Organizations. It’s no wonder in Hollywood he’s called the “Bodyguard to the Stars.” Cliff Stewart knows his stuff. I’ve worked with many of his contemporaries who have studied under such masters as Dan Inosanto, and at the same time Cliff was there. The martial arts world can be a jealous place, with more than its share of prima donnas. Yet, from Graciela Casillas to Paul Vunak, each of Cliff’s contemporaries I’ve spoken with gives Stewart the highest praise. It’s a rare man who can be that well liked and that highly respected at the same time in such an ego-charged environment. It says a lot for the grace and professionalism of Casillas and Vunak, but it says even more about Cliff Stewart.
Cliff Stewart possesses an awesome degree of knowledge and destructive power. The point he drives into his W.A.R. students is that possessing power doesn’t mean that you have to use it. Often, he makes clear, the greatest expression of that power is to dominate a threatening situation to the point that you don’t need to unleash it. Avoidance, he points out, is the ultimate victory.Tags: cliff stewart maha guru Darrell Sarjeant restita dejesus silat
