Real, Practical and Exciting Training!

Philosophy

Every drill has the goal of building positive results in each student. While many drills are physical and/or emotionally challenging by the end each student should feel positive and renewed by the training. Martial arts training that tears a person down tends to build cumulative stress which is not good for health or a happy life. In Systema our aim is always be building.

Who are the students?

Systema is ideal for people with no martial arts background and is an excellent complementary skill set for soldiers and officers in law enforcement and security, as well as, experienced fighters of any martial arts and military backgrounds.

Age

Training is open to anyone 16 years of age and older.

Instructors

Each group has an instructor certified by Vladimir Vasiliev.

Clothing

There are no uniforms. Sweatpants and t-shirt or any comfortable street clothing is recommended. Climate controlled facility (note that is the opposite of a controlled climate) so dress in layers for the winter and bring water and dry clothes in the summer.
