Through leadership there is only productivity, and a grown community. (Romena K.)

Going to Pencak Silat Alazhar twice or thrice every week has been life changing experience for me. It didn't just stop at teaching me how to defend myself and fight, but it went beyond and taught me morals and values as well as how to live and maintain a healthy lifestyle throughout. I am forever grateful to my teachers who helped me and my fellow trainees become the people we are today. (Maryam K. Black Belt))

I have exercised for over 10 years seeking to find the ultimate physical and mental capacity to excel in all aspects of life, but the gym wasn't enough, something was missing. How to flow with energy was missing, how to control energy was missing, how to tap into the spiritual side of our physic was missing. Until I joined this Silat academy. Silat was the missing key to unlocking my potential. From the basics of learning how to breathe to ultimately mastering the art of martials arts, Pencak Silat Alazhar Canada Martial Arts Academy brought the balance in all aspects of my life, giving me the tools to protect and lead my family into the good of this life. (Suhail N (Black Belt))

Having practiced martial arts since my childhood, I have never expected this much richness and wisdom in Pencak Silat and how it has a complete system. It is too bad that many people still do not know about this great art. (Ivan K.)

I have been attending the PSASBD classes for more than a year now and it has been a life changing experience. I can breathe and sleep better and I have learnt how to defend myself better than before. Thanks God! I have gained more confidence in myself  and more knowledge and Asian wisdom... Dr. Slimi and Pencak Silat Canada have done numerous open house displays for the community. Local Organizations like ours have always warmly been received; and the display of the Silat form has been nothing short of extraordinary. (Jasmin Ally, March 10, 2019)

I have been training with my siblings in different martial arts since my childhood  here in Canada but Pencak Silat seems to have everything in it. It is a complete system and it honours its long tradition of respect, humility and community service. I just Love it! (Javid)

Our children never practiced any martial arts before and we did not think they would last 3 months but they have been in it for 3 years now and they love it. They like the classes, the activities, the robotics class and all the extra things they get. The Instructors are friendly and patient with the kids. (The Khans)
