glockmeister Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Well A guy I trained with in F.I.G.H.T. took it for like 3 years. he liked the Israeli stuff better but said systema was a pretty good system. I was thinking of going and taking a few classes to see what it was like, but its a good ways from me and haven't gotten the chance to see it first hand yet. At that school, they also teach Combat Sambo, which I would be more interested in. "You know the best thing about pain?

ElShaft Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 some of the instructors in the video dont look too good but on the otherhand some of the takedowns/joint locks look affective "The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilised community , against his will, is to prevent harm to others" (J.S Mill, On Liberty; 135) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glockmeister Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Let us know how it turns out if you do some training with them.This is a rather old thread but have to say i have taken a class or two and while it looks hokey from a distance. I can say it wasn't too bad. has a bit of ground fighting in it. A lot of flow drills, and body conditioning. "You know the best thing about pain?

RichardZ Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 I tend to think these type of trainings are more "instant grits" which may lack certain other martial art attributes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 What attributes, for example? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lombrai Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 The only real description i heard about it was that it was a martial art of "one against many"as it say's, to fight against more then one opponent. But then again i'm not entirely sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamahlthedruid Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 THe style looks wierd, but its real. It is even more free flowing than jkd. The only thing you cannot do in systema is block since you can only parry or deflect to conserve energy I think. My systema instructor Ken Good is an ex navy seal and he is friends with sonny puzikas ( he was on spike tv's the deadliest warrior spetsnaz vs green beret). By the way Ken Good teaches at san diego systema http://sandiegosystema.com/ and del mar crossfit http://www.crossfitdelmar.com/schedule. I will return back to training this summer after I travel to taiwan and thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamahlthedruid Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) The only things I am skeptical about in systema is hypnosis used to make people fall down. That aspect of systema confuses me. ROSS, kadochnikov systema, homo ludens, Ryabko Systema, kaizentao, systema siberian cossack systema are different takes on systema. Homo Ludens is pretty cool. One of my classmates in college used to take classes in it. It is mma mixed with systema. Edited March 19, 2012 by kamahlthedruid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamahlthedruid Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 systema's sensitivity drills reminds me of tai chi push hands, but you are allowed to do all types of dirty tricks like pull hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
