The current edition of UK magazine The Big Issue has an interesting article on Systema in London http://www.systemalondon.org/Big_Issue.html
I watched a video about Systema strikes recently that was really interesting, about creating a wave through your body as you hit and take hits. There are no schools near me as far as I know though
I can't copy and paste it, but in the second paragraph it says something about systema being the only martial art to use knife and gun training as an essential part of it. Not true. Anyone ever tried systema out? I have heard both good and bad things about it. There is nowhere around me that teaches it, so I can't go try it out. I don't want to spend $110 for the basic videos just to see whether or not I would like it. Like I said I have heard a lot of good things about it, but some bad and some VERY strange. The "psychic energy" thing seems a bit wierd.(they say it is not chi) I am still interested in it, so if anyone has any clips of it or knows a little, please tell me
There are plenty of clips plus details of UK clases on our site at www.systemauk.com There are one or two inaccuracies in the article but it's not bad overall.
