ABOUT THE SYSTEM
 |
Systema is a comprehensive art based on centuries-old Russian martial arts traditions and developed and used in
modern times by the elite units of the Russian Special Forces known as Spetsnaz. The style is based on natural, free movements
and has no set stances or forms. All tactics are based on instinctive reactions, individual strengths and characteristics,
specifically designed for fast learning. Training emphasizes proper breathing and movement, and encompasses many combat situations
including single and multiple attacker hand-to-hand, groundwork, striking, and the use of knives and other weapons.
