Silat is a collective word for a class of indigenous martial arts from the geo-cultural
area of Southeast Asia, more precisely in the Indonesian Archipelago, a region known locally as Nusantara.
It is traditionally practiced in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, portions of the Philippines, the
southern part of Thailand and central part of Vietnam. There are hundreds of different styles (aliran) and
schools (perguruan) but they tend to focus either on strikes, joint manipulation, weaponry, or some
combination thereof.
Our classes are taught and overseen by Maul Mornie. You may see videos of his
trainings on at MAUL565 on YouTube. Classes and seminars are held throughout the year through Hill Country
Karate. Please check our events page for upcoming events.
The HCK Stars Competition Team consists of ELITE martial artists ages 8 and above from
Hill County Karate. These students train, and compete in sparring and forms against top-level competitors at
the state and national sanctioned tournaments.
If you or your child are interested in trying out for
