Abstract

This paper discusses Silat Minangkabau from the West Sumatran Oral Traditions self de-fence known as Silek, using movement analysis. This focus is to understand the characteristics of movement unique to traditional styles in the streams of silat schools called sasaran in the Minangkabau language. Applying movement analysis has an important role in understanding how the silat body moves in time and space. These researchers argue that using this approach will strengthen and hone the artistic skills and perspective of an animator interested in under-standing the movements when creating visuals based on martial arts. Further focus in this pa-per is to scrutinise the traditional Minangkabau self defence style known as the silek harimau. Although there are already creative works of animators on silat, movement analysis hones the precision of gazing upon the visual aspect of bodily movement in the context of emic views.
