These are some promo clips, but still give you an idea of what the system is about -

Good videos. These are certainly more alive than most Systema videos. Despite the fact that there is still a lot of compliance and it is still done quite slowly, I can now see that it could, in principle, be applied against a fully resisting opponent at full speed. I still wish someone would come up with a full-speed, resistant Systema video clip so we can see it more clearly. I suspect that some tweaking would be required and it certainly wouldn't be as pretty as these clips, but it sure would be informative.

Anyone who does Systema interested in getting out a pair of gloves and "duking it out" full contact, Systema style?

Same stuff. Filmed outside.

Not my thing.

Boy,that looked awful cheesy to me.

* The attacker walks up to assault
*Just when contact is made the victim raises his hands and grabs while staring into space
*The attacker is mesmerized and falls down in a trance

yeehaw...

Leo,

I am a systema student and I recently came across a seminar vid that had the instuctor fighting at full speed and it was against punches(gloved), knives, and kicking. It's getting late for me tonight but I will get you the link tomorrow.

Leo,

Oops, the video I mentioned is the second one that Matt had posted at the top of this thread. Sorry, it was late at night and I was a bit bleary-eyed. I do have a couple of comments that will have my usual systema plug and appreciation for the KM system, next time 'round for I gotta go for now and get back to the grind of auto repair.

Nothing you described was in the second video.

Leo,

You were right, this is the one I was talking about:

later,

Hey,

I just tested the link from within this forum and it does not go there. For now just copy the link to a new window/tab and I'll figure out how to give out links that work.

I've seen this video before and it leaves me unsatisfied. It means little if I'm watching a music video (b/c that's what it is) on Systema, Kapap, or "the greatest martial art ever". Does VV have a video of a class? I don't want to hear music. I don't want to see cut scenes. I literally mean some guy takes out his home video camera and films a class in real-time (sound preferred).

Yes, I've seen that one before. It was better, but still leaves me wondering. The guys seem to avoid clinching a lot and some of the contact there is quite light. I want to see them get out the mouthguards and go at it with gusto. Plus, I'd love to see how they cope with other people grabbing them.
