The Practice of Tetada Indonesia

The foundation of the practice of Tetada Indonesia is the breathing technique and perfected in the proper execution of duduk nafas. The pagas and the triangular breathing methods carry the basic principles of the art. These builds physical and mental coordination and energy which provides the force to move the healing energy.

Breathing techniques in cadence with the sound of the jurus dasar brings together the mental, physical movements to create harmony of motion. The result is sweating without muscle strain and stress- free exercise.

The movements from sato or first until the ninth form is similar to the forms of taichi, aikido, karate. However, the similarities are limited to form as the intent of Tetada Indonesia is healing. Practitioners of the Art of Tetada Indonesia are trained to always focus on healing by building internal energy.

The internal energy flows from inside the body and external natural sources, through bio-electricity and directed to a point below the navel and locking it for use whenever it is needed. This healing internal energy or terapi tenaga dalam (tetada) flow is likened to ki in aikido, chi in chikong and prana in yoga which is well described or seen in kirlian photography. This energy is formed through movements of brushing the hand or arms in specific areas of the body. These areas are directly linked to the main nerve centers and create healing action to internal organs.

It is inculcated in the minds of the practitioners that to practice together as one large group more bio-electricity is produced and creates a maximum generation of internal energy.
