Eric Torres –
I just finished watching the instructional film by Vladimir Vasiliev Knife in a Fight and what can I tell you. .. It was a completely new experience. Although I train under Vladimir on a constant basis it is still ever so difficult to grasp every subtle move and concept in all of his teachings. That is why I am very grateful that there are videos like these in which Vladimir dedicates specific concepts to which one can review and continue reviewing.
Vladimir demonstrates a supreme relaxation in his application to knife defense and his explanations are very important but the way in which Vladimir projects his energy under an internal control I truly believe only Vladimir can demonstrate with ease.
The good thing about this video is that there were many activities that can be practiced with one and two partners and you learn not only how to defend against a knife but also how to use a weapon and analyze an attacker carrying weapons – very important things.
Being able to demonstrate what happens in moments of defense in a simple and adaptive way is an art and Vladimir gives us many examples and ideas to evolve our practice of Systema without limits.
This film was a great motivation to continue practicing and living with an unaltered and creative mind!
It really is worth spending your time to review and study from this film!
