History

In 1903, Ki Ageng Soerodiwirjo laid the groundwork for a pencak silat Setia Hati style in Tambak Gringsing village, Surabaya, Indonesia. Previously, he called the martial arts style as "Djojo Gendilo Tjipto Muljo" with the brotherhood system called "Sedulur Tunggal Ketjer". In 1917, he moved to Madiun and establish Persaudaraan Setia Hati in Winongo village, Madiun, Indonesia.
In 1922, Ki Hadjar Hardjo Oetomo, a follower of the Setia Hati style from Pilangbango, Madiun, ask permission of Soerodiwirjo to establish a martial arts school with the Setia Hati style. Soerodiwirjo agreed with this idea as long as the school later had to have a different name. Finally, Oetomo formed SH PSC. This education system was then called Persaudaraan Setia Hati Terate or PSHT in 1948 during the first congress in Madiun.
