Systema Praha here! So natural, simple without strict positions, feel the harmony, move like a marsh and be grateful for every movement of your 'enemy' because it's blessing for you. Systema instructor in Prague is the best ! 😁
Just wanted to say one of the best clips on Systema i`ve seen. Will try and visit you guys when i visit UK. All the best Jason training at Systema Japan.
Sometimes a punch in the face that rocks your world is what an attacker needs to release his tension. Upon awakening he may reconsider his past actions and begin the healing process in himself.
Yeah! maybe that`s what he needed to calm down and control his agressiveness. You can see that happening a lot in mma or boxing, the guy is very agressive and once he gets KO`d or punched/kicked/ very hard or submitted, he never was as agressive as he used to (of course that is not good for a fighter but many people need to let that agressiveness behind in order to become better human beings)
Thanks for this video. For many years now, I have had an interest in this art for some years. Your video has explained it better than any I have seen. Many other videos either give the art a mythical unbelievable image, or a this is fake fighting art video....so thanks.
Do you think this is exclusive to this style? Every one I've trained talks about the importance of controlling your breathing in tense situations to not expend unnecessary amounts of energy.
Hi Matt I'm going to be joining the army in January and believe this could really benefit me both mentally but mostly physical. I'm 23 and would love to learn systema I have done alot of research on systema and am now looking to learn.
Hi Cam, a real benefit of Systema is that anyone can practice. It begins with improving breath work, and we can all do that. There are no set forms, so you adapt the principle based approach to suit your capability. Good luck!
Hi Cni, yes you can get access to lots of videos and online resources here: www.matthill.co.uk/products/ I am also doing online classes at the moment that you can access here: wp.me/P35qp9-M2
Hi, you can try Vladimir Vasiliev's school locator tool on his website: www.russianmartialart.com/schoollocator.php or there are several books that you can try if you do an amazon search and you can start to understand Systema and build your skills. Good luck with your journey! Please feel free to email me: matt@matthill.co.uk if you would like to find out more.
Well, it's not made very clear in this vid, but for me the real value of Systema lies in the knowledge of biomechanics it conveys. It doesn't teach you katas and set drills and the like, it teaches you core ideas like vital points, points of leverage and angles of movement, etc. The idea is you're able to apply that knowledge to defend yourself in any scenario, without being any more tense than necessary. If someone grabs you for example, you don't have to have trained specifically to counter such a grab, you know enough about how your body and your attacker's body works to be able to get out of the hold through improvisation. Naturally you're going to be more explosive in a street altercation, but this is just showing the basic mechanics of the art. I suggest you look up some stuff from Alex Kostic. He teaches a little bit more combat ready form of Systema. And if you want an idea of the potential power of the art, look up DK Yoo. Paul Genge also goes into a lot of detail about Systema mechanics. Hopefully this clears it up a bit. :)
Big part of that is bull**ido, as they say. I‘m not saying it has no benefits, but let me put it that way, you will never hear of someone with a Systema background in Professional martial arts. Ask yourself why.
My friend tried this shit on me. He claimed that in 3 months, he could beat me, who has trained in kun khmer/muay thai/pradal serey. Needless to say, he did not win, and looked quite silly while doing so. In other words, it's bullshit. He told me he just needed more training. After he'd trained for a year, the result was the same. He lost, and looked dumb while doing so. Maybe it would work on an untrained attacker. Not against trained fighters. You shouldn't lie to people and say it works on any style, because it doesn't. It could be a place where people find a source of community, and that's a good thing. But, none of you are going to make it to UFC or be a proffesional mma athlete using systema. It's funny how they talk about fitness and discipline, while the guy who invented it is a 350-400lb sack of chewed bubblegum.
That looks good. God Bless you all.

Very nice clip! Congrats from Systema Miami!
Thanks guys, appreciate it.

All the best
Jason training at Systema Japan.
Thanks Jason. Onegaishimas!
This is exactly what good Systema is. It reminds me of Kevin Secours way of seeing this art. Spaciba!
Great job Matt! This really shows that you care about your students and have a passion for Systema (and a good heart as well). Keep it up!
Lovely presentation, Matt! Great welcome to this wonderful art!! (Adjectives not accidental: love, large, and wonder!!!)
Person attacks you
"He needs healing..... Through Systema... "Punches him in face
Not everything is what it seems. That, and maybe his jaw was out of whack. :)

Such amazing quality! So proud to be apart of this.
Great Clip Matt, I think it sends out a very positive message about systema. Keep up the good work
Thanks Ray, appreciate it.

Thanks and glad that you enjoyed it.
One of the best explenative video's on Systema I have seen to date. Cheers Jonathan Technon Tactical
Thanks for the positive comments Jonathan.
Breathing is fundamental in every fighting system I've ever heard of as well as sports and meditation etc .
Do you think this is exclusive to this style? Every one I've trained talks about the importance of controlling your breathing in tense situations to not expend unnecessary amounts of energy.
Congratulations from Brazil!
Most informative, i'll look forward to taking part in some future classes. Thanks kindly Matt
Nice production value, we could certainly use more videos to help boost acceptance and credibility of the art
Thanks for the comments Michael.
Great to be part of this .
Great to have you Karl.
Love it❤
What is the age limit at what you can come there.
No real limit, if you are able to walk in you can train!
Hi Matt I'm going to be joining the army in January and believe this could really benefit me both mentally but mostly physical. I'm 23 and would love to learn systema I have done alot of research on systema and am now looking to learn.
Hi Jay, feel free to contact me through the website www.matthill.co.uk. Best wishes, Matt.
Is Grand Rapids Michigan the new UK?
I have Spina Bifida, but can walk with just leg braces. Can I learn systema?
Hi Cam, a real benefit of Systema is that anyone can practice. It begins with improving breath work, and we can all do that. There are no set forms, so you adapt the principle based approach to suit your capability. Good luck!
Before I say anything else, can you please do a full speed demonstration to prove it isn't fake. I don't know if it even works physically
Good video, well done Matt :-)
Come to oskarshamn in sweden PLEASE
Hong jay brought me here lmao
Hello,from México do You sell videos , i love to learn Systema , but here in Monterrey México Is no instructor , what can i do
Hi Cni, yes you can get access to lots of videos and online resources here: www.matthill.co.uk/products/ I am also doing online classes at the moment that you can access here: wp.me/P35qp9-M2
Do you maybe have any tipps for someome that doesn't have a group near them or the possibility to train with someone? Pretty Please?

@@matthillsystema Thank you for the tipps! I might write you in the future then, should I find nothing else.
I stand corrected,there is somewhere in England that does this.
Apply with a resisting partner with fast movements....and see if it works
coffeeguy it won’t that’s why they don’t do it lol
If it didn't work, the Russian military would not use it.
one thing matt where did you learn systema
What's the background music
Im sorry I can't remember...
@@matthillsystema It's ok
so many youtube videos about systema and no one didn't notice about author of the Systema -- Kadochnikov((
He was one of the recent developers, but not the only one.
Nice
Systema is used for Spetsnaz and some others.
Who came here for lookism?
ME lol
@@Viber_s nice
Well done for 100,999 views
Let's put it to the test against well trained and experienced boxers and MMA fighters ☻
This cant be serious. Aikido 2.0
This seems like some aikido crap. Try Krav Maga. It’s actually useful with actual fast movement and mostly good techniques.
What up with the guy who's wearing one sock?
Calling bullshit on the history! Prove it!
Does this really work? what happens when someone wants to kick the living s*** out of you?
+jam dom what do you mean if it really work ? It teach you to be relax and fluid lol
A bath will help you relax but will not help you if you are mugged or attacked.
I am not making fun of this martial art all I am saying is will it really help you if your life is in danger.

+jam dom it is taught to the Russian special forces what do you think
Big part of that is bull**ido, as they say. I‘m not saying it has no benefits, but let me put it that way, you will never hear of someone with a Systema background in Professional martial arts. Ask yourself why.
yeah, is this Cисьтема? it seems it's like a introduction to Krav Maga, not Cисьтема ! did you see Vadim Starov or even Mikhail Ryabko videos?
Hi Marcin, yes this is Systema.
Неужели в Америке верят этим мошенникам? В России давно уже нормальные люди поняли, что это обман
😂😂😂😂Ooh yeees
Its silat

Gayest martial art ever.... if u can even call it a martial art lol
You wont be saying that when someone kicks your ass with it l0l
They ll never get a chance
stavros19743 Not if you remain behind that keyboard in your mother's basement, they won't.
stavros19743 "Gayest?" Stavros, we both know who invented gayness and it wasn't the Russians ;-)
Must have been your mommy
I call bs
Cai9 cuz your fat and this video doesn't come with cookies.
Is it necessary to have or grow a huge Gut to master this woowooo? Hahah nonsense
For health,all martial arts work,for combat,extremely few and this rubbish is last on the list.
