What an amazing weekend with @wheelersystema where we studied a full spectrum of Systema - from ground fighting, stand up and practical knife defense. A big thank you to Martin for his generous sharing and for giving us such a clear picture of how to grow in this beautiful art that has been shared to us and to give us a fresh lens into the challenge of capturing the genius of Mikhail Ryabko in formulating such a complete system that spans the healing, psychological, spiritual and combative work.
Truly the beauty and challenge of Systema is expressed in the freedom that it offers. As Martin said succinctly: “hold it too tightly and it becomes a martial art”.

Get ready for a phenomenal 2.5 days as we study the self defense and combative tactics of Systema from a multi level perspective. Whether you’re looking to improvise your ground game or to sharpen your situational awareness, this seminar is for you.
If you’ve never experienced Systema first hand, this will be one of the best opportunities to understand this unique style of training and why it is so effective for real world application and why top level police and military personnel around the world train it.
Martin has decades of experience in both practical self defense, starting as a bouncer in the UK working his way to being a contract instructor for special forces such as the US Navy SEALS and SWAT teams. He has been featured on Discovery Channel, Blackbelt Magazine and many other media outlets as an authority on self defense and combatives.
We will also be have 2 special segments with head instructor of Systema Tokyo - Takahide Kitagawa. Taka will be sharing 2 topics on how Systema groundfighting works and also how Systema training can benefit other martial artists! Look out for those special classes too!

Systema is a Russian Martial Art that eschews techniques and instead focuses on universal principles. As a result, the training takes a freer form and students study survival in a broad variety of situations instead of responding to fixed attacks. Training in Systema takes a very personalized approach surfacing individual strengths and weaknesses. This is why the old name for Systema in Russian is “Poznai Sebia”, or “know thyself” - it is an art to help us understand who we really are.
In this class we study the concept of “meeting” our attackers before the contact. This gives us the right body preparation for the attack without which every punch becomes a surprise to the nervous system and overwhelms it.

Train soft, train strong. The Russian Martial Art methodology is not easy to understand and most people think that softness is a weakness - not realizing that the healthiest way to develop your body is through progressive overload and a calm nervous system. This is also the realm in which the body and psyche learn how to heal, providing a double benefit.
Play and slow work are vastly underrated tools which we like to employ in Systema.
Come try it out if that interests you.
We actually don’t just hit each other nonstop but since we had a couple rounds of it over the weekend at least we deserve a reel 🥹
We’re doing a special for our classes - if you want to give it a shot just drop a message below “special” for a special discount you can use for our FightPass or the upcoming seminar with Martin Wheeler!
Please watch our other FitXpo video for a more holistic view of what we do!

Today we spent a good amount of time working with the legs instead of hands to bring the same kind of full body intelligence and control to the lower half the body that we usually delegate to just “getting from place to place” or “kicks”. This helps us to layer in subtle control of situations that are usually missed by focusing only on the upper body.
Great to be back to regular class!
