This week, Glenn chats with Vermont-based Systema practioner and child-adolescent behavioural analyst Sarah Allain. 

Sarah began training around 6 years ago, introduced by a friend extolling the benefits for health and stress management. In that time, she has learned to use Systema to manage chronic pain and illness, and found joy and community in the practice. She comes to training with a slightly different tack, and sees fascinating parallels between our methodology and her work with kids and adolescents. Topics include:

• 
  
• her experiences as a beginner in Systema
  
• breaking the discomfort barrier
  
• embracing the concept of antifragility
  
• Systema as applied to self-regulation and co-regulation in kids
