Systema Academy Free Work Seminar: 21-22 May 2022 – Melksham.

The theme of this seminar is: Free Work.

It is running on the 21-22 May 2022

 

One of the key things that drew me to Systema was the Spontaneous and Creative way in which Vladimir and Mikhail display their skills.

No techniques, no preconceived responses, just a natural response to a situation in the moment.

During this seminar we will work with exercises, drills and concepts to develop your ability to produce work that flows naturally from you.

Just as water flows over rocks, it finds the easiest path.

 

It starts with natural breathing. We will move past breathing techniques and head towards unconscious competence in breathing.

We will then apply this to movement and then into partner work.

 

We will look at some very effective drills to develop instinctive work that flows from you one movement to the next.

‘Natural movement is the shortest and quickest way to an effective result.’ – Vladimir Vasiliev.

 

Video Recording:
There will also be the option to shoot a video recording of the final testing phase for you to keep and if desired send to Vladimir Vasiliev for feedback and/or instructor validation/renewal.

 

Health and Conditioning:
A key benefit of free work is that you need to remove tension, thoughts and emotions for it to flow freely.

As your skill improves, so does your health.

We will also cover the Systema approach to mobility, stretching, massage, deep and functional relaxation and conditioning work.

It will be intense but a lot of fun, with time for relaxation and use of the Academy for your own free training.

There is already a lot of interest and limited spaces.
