Zeal Posted September 25, 2007 Author Share Posted September 25, 2007 Hi Big Godders The training consists of all aspects of fighting - kicks, punches, locks and holds (and how to escape from them), ground fighting, defense against weapons and multiple opponents. We also train extensively in a variety of breathing and conditioning exercises unique to the Russian system. The sessions are physical rather than technical - you will sweat!!! We practice a seemingly unlimited amount of movement drills with natural relaxed body movement being emphasized over specific techniques. There are no pre-set movement routines (kata) and also no grading system. The atmosphere of the classes is friendly and non-competitive as the goal is for everyone to learn. A couple of good sources of information are russianmartialart.com and systemauk.com. YouTube also has a ton of clips which can help to give a flavour of the type of training we do. Also there are a few different types of Systema, the style we do is that taught by Mikhail Ryabko and Vladimir Vasiliev who I am learning from. Training venue will be as close to the city centre as I can find and probably be on a weekday evening or maybe weekend. I will contact interested people when it's confirmed. Hope this answers some questions NICK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Godders Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Certainly does. Thank you. Please let me know when you get sorted. I currently train 4 out 5 week nights but if it falls right I will definately come and have a look. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaddys Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 It's an old post, so I was just enquiring if he still teaches Systema. He might have been registered I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaddys Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 All the Charity shops I have asked cannot or don't accept electrical goods as a H & Safety precaution. I believe there is an organisation in Sheffield who take old pc's etc & salvage the parts but I don't know who or where they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
