DESCRIPTION
Russian Systema traces its origins to various Cossack systems of the 10th century. When the Soviet government later commissioned the development of a research center for human maximization, the synthesized research in the Asian arts created systems of combat designed to meet the demands of the modern soldier. These combat systems included sport sambo, combat sambo, and Samoz, which later evolved into Systema.
The Combat Systema approach outlined in this video series was created by Kevin Secours, after years of high-level study under top Russian masters. It is defined by a scientific approach to biomechanics, breath training, and combat psychology. The continuous use of pressure testing to measure and refine those attributes, combined with continued research in human performance, has helped shaped the most complete solution possible for the needs of the modern practitioner.
Combat Systema: The Russian Martial Art of Armed Combat teaches how to defend yourself when you are unarmed and facing an assailant armed with a knife or firearm. From building body mechanics, adjusting to varying heights, adapting the Russian arm tie, and breaking the attacker's structure to utilizing practical defenses and counters to the most common knife and firearm attacks, this video advances Secours' Systema from the empty-handed fundamentals found in Volume 1 (Combat Systema: The Russian Martial Art of Hand-to-Hand Combat) to armed combat, while emphasizing the underlying principles found across the entire spectrum of the Combat Systema curriculum.
