Ons vermogen om benen te gebruiken om te lopen is het laatste fysieke kernelement dat een baby ontwikkelt en het is de eerste kernfunctie die we verliezen als we ouder worden.
Onderschat daarom het belang niet van onze benen. Het is belangrijk om je benen te blijven ontwikkelen. In dit artikel wil ik met jullie delen wat ik geleerd heb over lopen in het Systema.
There are 3 components to our work:
Physical strength
Techniques or skills
Transition to internal work
Drill 1: a wrestling type hold and see who is stronger
Then rotate your arm and shoulder to relax and escape
People who go to train and martial arts want to become strong. A big part of becoming strong is take and deliver strikes.
The biggest obstacle to the skill of controlling strikes is tension. Tension causes fear and fear causes tension and we need to get away from this vicious cycle.
In this class we will cover strikes with the fist, knife and stick
Two basic breathing principles:
Inhale through the nose and out through the mouth whenever you are carrying through a task
Do not hold your breath (unless it is an exercise of breath holds)
Stand up and keep your feet comfortably equidistant from each other. Inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth.
In Systema, spontaneity is essential. It’s still important to keep the goal of your training in mind and that is: developing strong spirit through eliminating tension and getting healthier every class.
