The school, however, does not teach body invulnerability ( ilmu kebal, which is taught by some more traditional silat schools), as it opposes cults and considers them shirk. Tapak Suci trains its members in physical silat techniques and breathing exercises.
The silat masters and practitioners in Muhammadiyah were concerned about the threatening situation confronting their members at that time, especially from various mass organizations that belonged to the Communist Party of Indonesia (PKI).
The silat school was founded and made an official part of Muhammadiyah on Jin Yogyakarta and has since spread nationwide within the organization. Tapak Suci is one of the ten 'historic schools' of IPSI ( Ikatan Pencak Silat Indonesia, or Pencak Silat Association of Indonesia), the leading organization of pencak silat in Indonesia. Tapak Suci Putera Muhammadiyah ( Sacred Palm, sons of Muhammadiyah), shortened as Tapak Suci, is an autonomous pencak silat martial arts organization of Muhammadiyah, the second largest modernist Muslim organization in Indonesia.
