everytime I see systema demos on youtube, even recorded seminars, etc, the impression is always the same: the principles behind the movements are hidden, not taught... only a few get it,.... interesting

Thanks - I think that's because what we see on YT is usually a short clip from what may be a whole day's training. I wouldn't say anything is hidden, but sometimes things are not always so obvious. Different teachers approach that issue in different ways. Personally, I like to keep verbal explanation to a minimum and let people learn through the experience - with a certain amount of explanation

Hi Rob. I hope everything going fine🙏. To support your vlog my approach of solo training is based on one question: how i can get feedback? To get it, I use ground and wall for global mobility ; and object (stick, swipe hamer, rope, medecine ball, tennis ball...) for manipulation. Then I extend this to "what kind of mouvement problem the environment could propose to me to developp attributs for self defense. It could be either table and chair or playing moment with children and animals. At the end a mouvement is a mouvement. Only the intention behind it which change. See you soon

Hi Leo hope you are keeping well. That's a good point. In solo work it is possible to get "good" at everything as we may not challenge ourselves so much. Working with objects and environment as you do is a good way of testing ourselves. Nice one!

The only reason i can think of for slow training is to reset your brain so your body responds correctly.

That's one, I can think of some others. And I can't think of anything that isn't learned without an element of slow training. Same goes for teaching.

Very cool! Nice to see you highlighting/commenting on other people's work. Makes me think you could try your hand at the type of content where you're speaking in a small window within the screen while the main video is playing, commenting. In this video for example you could have made essentially a 5min video by having the first part be the commentary of the second part. Just a thought!

Serious question, did systema develop from tai chi? Given its flowing nature and principles it looks like tai chi without the forms. and given their geographical origins it seems a reasonable assumption.

No. There are some superficial similarities but the underlying methods and mindsets are very different

As an ex-systema guy myself, I can see these guys are very skilled. Personally, I prefer the more direct approach advocated by William Fairbairn and his Gutter Fighting system. Sadly, I was disappointed when I tried real speed stabs against a very well known systema instructor. I was just using simple moves and got through every time. Maybe he was having an off-day. Mind you, I was impressed by his punches!

there is no defence for the knitting machine style stab.
@CuttingEdgeSystema
@CuttingEdgeSystema Ай бұрын
There is - but it involves injuring the attacker. This puts an instructor in a difficult position. I know of one who broke an "attackers" arm when challenged in this way. Then no-one wins.

I would have loved to have visited this, but it was my anniversary. My wife would have divorced me. I love a bit of push hands, Alan W kindly visited me prior to this so we could play. I'm based in Tamworth, only about 5 miles from Hinckley, don't know who you are talking about, so he ain't a local legend. He certainly hasn't visited our group.

Do you think doing strength training helps with systema,and also is it true that the way to punch is not to be relaxed all the way but to tense your body at the moment right before you strike?
@CuttingEdgeSystema
@CuttingEdgeSystema 4 ай бұрын
Strength training is absolutely necessary, but must be done in the correct way. We have a wide range of strength building exercises, solo and partner, some using equipment. The trick is to match that training into the function. Relaxation - tension is a sliding scale across the whole body, and is dependent on the situation. Selective tension is part of that skill development, knowing what to relax and what to keep more tense.
