Systema..http://www.kgb-militaryschool.com/view/video?gclid=CLHcm5-2hI4CFQ_llAodkWFoQQwas speaking to this guy at sheffstock and after looking at this site im well interested in training, just wondering if anyones heard or trained in it? sounds pretty good if you ask me? check out the link.

      Yes, Systema is effective. The training focuses on sparring and drills rather than forms/kata. The art itself focuses mainly on six levers of the body, namely elbows, waist, neck, knees, shoulders and ankles.

London where he first started training then he added army (1ST Para) techniques in too, he took a very JKD stance (scuze the pun) and absorbed from any other style provided it could be proved to be effective, he hated “showy” moves especially if they left your guard open, having said that he was delighted when I put together multiple spinning inner, outer crescents into spinning back fist raised knee block then turn back kick, wouldn’t let me use it in sparring though (grumble, grumble). We also learnt single stick/knife techniques and heaven and earth combo’s with double stick. When I first joined it was entirely illegal, no insurance, everybody there where in trouble in one way or the other, all tokers too including the sensi (hee hee, just thought, sensi sensi) but fuck me did we learn self discipline and respect for each other and those around us. I’m interested in studying something new especially with weapon work as I seem to get on well with it, any ideas?

                                  Any preference to what weapons you want to learn? An Art with weapons and open hand combat or solely weapon training?

                                  Have a look around for Kenjutsu, Eskrima, CLF has 52 traditional Chinese weapons.

                                      People used to ask me why i never wore a skirt.. well 2 reasons 1 i ain’t a girly girl so u’ll more or less never see me in one.. 2 doing Muay thai u end up with bruises like you wouldn’t believe at times so not very nice to show..

                                      I think more people should get into martial arts as they not only keep you fit but they teach discipline which is severely lacking in todays society.. I’ve seen kids off the street start training and their outlook changes they no longer want to go out and start fights even though they’re far more equipped to do so after it..

                                      I agree, taught correctly Martial Arts does a world of good for some people. The discipline side is rarely seen taught today unfortunately. Good when you see a very traditional school taught with the Taoist/Buddhist principles still intact too. It’s a big part of Martial Arts that a lot of people don’t even realise that it’s there, which is a shame.

                                      Agree with the Muay Thai bruises too, after a sparring session with a MT fighter it looked like I came out very much worse for wear, although it was a very close contest. The conditioning you guys go through is unreal. A well struck shin is like getting hit with a steel pole!

                                          What you looking at? Chinese/Japanese/Korean Arts? If you want full contact how about considering a MMA, Brazilian JuJutsu, or Muay Thai? A lot of Kung Fu can be contact aswell, Choy Li Fut being one of them. Let us know if you decide. 🙂

                                              We do stuff with Shuriken and stuff like stealth walking etc, but not too often, generally in classes for higher grades, and we learn Sakkijutsu as well, but its usually incorporated into techniques or in specific exercises every now and again. I talk about sakki to some people and they say it’s bullshit(i mean people who don’t do martial arts), but it does work (though i’m by no means brilliant at it).
                                              My mistake, theres no jujutsu, but there are similarities in some of the schools.
                                              Yea the class is under Soke Masaaki Hatsumi, and my teacher organises trips to go and train with him in Japan, but i haven’t had the chance to go yet.
                                              What martial arts do you do?

                                              Fair enough. Would love to see some Sakkijutsu, a true talent to learn that!

                                              Would be quality to train under Soke Hatsumi, let us know if you get the chance to go!

                                              Oh yea, and i would like to start learning some sort of Kung Fu, but it seems really badly taught around here. Theres a class that happens at the same time as my ninjutsu class, and it seems rubbish. The teacher seems apalling and i once heard him puttiing down someone who was obviously new to the class when he found out they’d done jujutsu. He started trying to “prove” that it was rubbish, despite the face that he was blatantly talking bollocks, and the face that his general technique is shit, and i can see that even though i’ve never done Kung Fu. I may be wrong but there doesn’t seem to be much good Kung Fu classes near me.

                                              I’ve studied JuJutsu and a mix of Goju-ryu and Shotokan Karate before, but I’m currently studying Choy Li Fut Kung Fu and Yang style T’ai Chi Chuan.

                                              I have no respect at all for teachers that slate other Arts, there’s no need for it at all. There’s strengths and weaknesses to every single Art.

                                              Bujinkan and Gung Fu would be a very interesting mix indeed! Unfortunately there’s no schools under my lineage near Cardiff. I don’t think Choy Li Fut and Bujinkan would be a very good mix to be honest, as they are both amazingly huge Arts. CLF has about 200,000 different forms in total! :crazy:

                                              Maybe Wing Chun though? Very effective, and don’t see it getting in the way of your main Art. Very popular, should imagine you’d have a Kwoon near you.

                                                My mistake, theres no jujutsu, but there are similarities in some of the schools.
                                                Yea the class is under Soke Masaaki Hatsumi, and my teacher organises trips to go and train with him in Japan, but i haven’t had the chance to go yet.
                                                What martial arts do you do?

                                                Fair enough. Would love to see some Sakkijutsu, a true talent to learn that!

                                                Would be quality to train under Soke Hatsumi, let us know if you get the chance to go!

                                                Oh yea, and i would like to start learning some sort of Kung Fu, but it seems really badly taught around here. Theres a class that happens at the same time as my ninjutsu class, and it seems rubbish. The teacher seems apalling and i once heard him puttiing down someone who was obviously new to the class when he found out they’d done jujutsu. He started trying to “prove” that it was rubbish, despite the face that he was blatantly talking bollocks, and the face that his general technique is shit, and i can see that even though i’ve never done Kung Fu. I may be wrong but there doesn’t seem to be much good Kung Fu classes near me.

                                                I’ve studied JuJutsu and a mix of Goju-ryu and Shotokan Karate before, but I’m currently studying Choy Li Fut Kung Fu and Yang style T’ai Chi Chuan.

                                                I have no respect at all for teachers that slate other Arts, there’s no need for it at all. There’s strengths and weaknesses to every single Art.

                                                Bujinkan and Gung Fu would be a very interesting mix indeed! Unfortunately there’s no schools under my lineage near Cardiff. I don’t think Choy Li Fut and Bujinkan would be a very good mix to be honest, as they are both amazingly huge Arts. CLF has about 200,000 different forms in total! :crazy:

                                                Maybe Wing Chun though? Very effective, and don’t see it getting in the way of your main Art. Very popular, should imagine you’d have a Kwoon near you.

                                                      Currently learning Jeet Jun Do in Nottingham, Bruce Lee really was a genius. I’d recommend it to anyone searching for a no frills devastating street fighting style.

                                                      Jeet Kune Do 🙂 Very effective, love Lee’s philoshophy on no style.

                                                      What are you looking at studying in Norwich? We have a whole range. Try the Kokoro-no-Kai Oriental Arts centre first, everything from Bujinkan to JKD to Ving Tsun. Or my Kwoon is just down the road too, studying Choy Li Fut Gung Fu and Yang Style T’ai Chi Chuan. Let us know how you get on 🙂
