Systema Bristol

Systema is a martial art developed for and by Russian Special Forces, utilizing centuries-old Slavic hand-to-hand combat traditions. It is a comprehensive system that enhances physical, psychological, and spiritual well-being, incorporating various disciplines such as armed and unarmed combat, weapon disarming, striking, grappling, and joint locks. Unlike traditional martial arts, Systema focuses on principles rather than fixed techniques, promoting natural movement to influence opponents and resolve conflicts. Beyond combat, it serves as a training system for resilience, stress management, mobility, and endurance, making it an excellent fitness tool for full-body conditioning.
