Молодец Михаил Васильевич,на высоте!

[@GenghisKhanPolitics]

Never met a martial arts instructor who is so much like a fuzzy teddy bear

[@nikneg2735]

I hope someday I will be able to meet this wonderful master and learn something from him!!

[@BuddhaRon108]

Great stuff! No, it's greater than great.. It's the greatest! Whoever doesn't get how expert this work is, has something in their eye, or some tension disturbing their minds, or a poor understanding of how the body-mind works. I want to train with this man!

[@kristianspot2683]

I know its not about the systema but I would most likely fall into love with the translation lady. Such a sweet voice

[@LudoKanta]

Beautiful work! As always from Ryabko.

[@lsporter88]

Very respectful and light way to instruct. Very impressive.

[@priestjc]

It is always amazing to watch Mikhail work. Such great demonstrations; always showing calmness and efficiency in all of his movements.

[@childrenofbodomfan74]

you know those are mostly sensitivity drills, to get a feel for the knife and how to move in relation to it. This is not aimed to emulate a real life fight but it will create automated reactions/pattern recognition/muscle memory which might allow you to go through a knife fight with only minor injuries.

Everything is told. Thank you

[@TheFoehamer]

[@miketurley8272]

excellent.but i dont understand@3.11 what is keeping the back of the hand from being skinned?or is it supposed tobe "a flesh sacrifice "? i dont get the technique.thanx

[@isabellavelandia4936]

Me gusta.. mucho 🤐

[@gregscrimgeour6245]

That's a dangerous thing to teach let alone demonstrate. He is showing how to defend but he is also showing how to kill. Some people might try this stuff without proper training and hurt themselves or worse someone else...

[@paulfuray8557]

This guy is BOSS 😎

[@MrBINDEL]

Super.

[@navim2582]

Beautiful Art & Graceful Work.... Swift, deep & deadly...

[@user-ue2hc3ei7h]

давно это было....

[@escrima560]

For all you fan boys out there, this is the reality of getting brutally attacked by another human being, armed or unarmed, firstly most of us lesser beings who don't match up to Mr Ryabco's God like status will start to shake or tremble, your mouth will become dry, it will be hard to swallow, light headiness may follow, weaknesses in the legs, all those fine motor skills you learned in the gym ( those pretty little disarming moves) will disappear, you will have to rely on your gross motor skills(big sweeping moves) and the one thing I have never heard any instructor mention, the releasing of bowel contents, yes shiting or pissing yourself or both, IT HAPPENS, so get used to the idea. A knife stab or deep cut can cause the body to go into shock(Paul Vunack) not to mention bleeding to death quite quickly. If your instructor tells you he is a knife fighter, he is probably a liar or fantasist, ask to see his puncture and stab wounds, Even the best boxers in the world have to trade punches sometimes even with a lesser boxer . I started learning escrima 40 years ago, the knife training I was taught was the same as this shit, it didn't work then and it does not work now I used to ask my instructors to get padded up-and- let me attack however i wanted, full speed with aggression, I was ways turned down, I wonder why?

[@ceckolalovia]

The instructor of 1 friend has the same provocation. A guy came to atack him in the place where they train. So this guy said to the instructor (spetnaz) he will atack with full force and real knife. So the instructor said if you're gonna use real knife I'm gonna defend for real. So the guy attacks with the real knife, the knife flew away from his hand after he broke his elbow from the instructor's disarming.

Скорость руки больше скорости туловища Убрать туловище проблематично. А вы ведь еще и вторым номером работаете.

[@32445477]

glad to see master Mikhail is so well and hearty. Pay my respect.

[@vasilijeperanovic8814]

02:05 O.o

[@theocp]

yeah that is an unfortunate mistake, but at least noticeable and fixable when training at this speed and it's always good to learn to work from a bad position. however this is 1 of many knife exercises done to get a better understanding of knife work... and at a later stage for more experienced people a real knife is used. Even if the attacker were to go at full speed, Mikhail would still be very calm and relaxed because relaxation is 1 of 4 core ideas of Systema

Puras coreografias con un machete cocotero no dura 2 segundos

[@myfavoritethings6433]

No, aqui no hay coreografias, eso es lo que la gente ignorante y que nunca ha estudiado este arte no entiende, aqui NO hay coreografias, esto no es karate, ni nada que se le parezca, pero cuando la gente no sabe habla mucho porque es gratis.
