Nowadays individualism and the fear of others are kings! However, more and more people feel the need to change. The practice of a martial art is one of the best ways to achieve one's goals. In the Systema you will learn to trust yourself but also to not be afraid of others. The Systema teaches us or re-learns to breathe in order to manage our stress whatever they are. We also learn to stay in motion in order to always go forward, all in the relaxation and kindness. It was born from the mixture of several Russian martial arts, such as Sambo, Samoz and Russian traditional arts, as well as other martial arts (Ju-jitsu, Judo, etc.) and practices such as yoga or sophrology. Originally used by and for Russian special forces (Spetnaz in the 50s and 60s) it was later developed to be taught to civilians. By its nature of Self-Defense, where the goal is simply to continue to live as best as possible (martial practice can handle the stress caused by various sources and not just by aggression, fortunately we do not we do not aggress every day), the Systema does not offer competitions. There are also no belts or graduation, except the Instructor certificates provided after some training. The Systema is mainly about getting to know oneself and managing oneself. Each practitioner will therefore have his own logic, his own techniques that he has discovered himself during his training. Indeed the Systema does not offer techniques in its own right but rather a number of concepts and principles that must be as*imilated to give free rein to the natural. The Siberian Cossack School offers a more traditional view of the Systema. Basic practice includes breathing, posture, movement (standing and on the ground), stress management and of course self-defense.
