Episode 100: Best of the Podcast, 2019-2020

March 06, 2020

100 Episodes! We made it!


For this special, celebratory episode, we’ve assembled a selection of  favorite questions and moments from the last year.
Inclding:



  • Vladimir & Valerie Vasiliev, talking about the changing face of Systema and the necessity of giving people what they need, even when it’s not what they want. 

Then there’s DC Systema’s Jonathan Han, talking about the role of creativity in training, and Systema as a true art form.
  • We have Menamy “The Tsunami” Mitanes of Systema Los Angeles, talking about the value and pitfalls of cross-training Systema with other martial arts.
  • Lance Rewerts and Martin Wheeler, sharing their thoughts on last years seminal Against Tension seminar at Systema HQ Toronto, and on the concept of power as a natural state.
  • Then frequent contributor Emmanuel Manolakakis, also sharing his takeaways from the Against Tension seminar, and cultivating speed and relaxation on demand.
  • And finally back to Vladimir and Valerie, with some closing thoughts on the benefits of Systema outside of self-defense - including stronger families, stress-resilience, self-insight, and spiritual development.


Enjoy.
