Expert-level teaching from Vladimir, constantly demonstrating ‘what right looks like’. He doesn’t say ‘do as I say’, he says ‘do as I do’ – and what he shows is some high levels of awareness, sensitivity, freedom and command over his body and mind – things that are available to all at any age.

Yura Chekanov, Systema Greenville, South Carolina –
Once again, thank you so much for unforgettable days at System Camp! After retiring in June of this year, I traveled all over US and Canada. Put over 10,000 miles on my car. Visited more than 10 national parks: Grand Canyon, Crater Lake, Death Valley and many other places. And yet 5 days of camp were the best days of the whole summer! Thank you for your generosity in sharing knowledge; kindness and care in the improvement of daily life; a rich, but still quite feasible schedule of classes; the opportunity to meet new wonderful people from all over the world; And the hope that life can always be changed for the better.

Thank you so much for hosting Systema Camp 2023. I was very nervous about coming from Japan alone without any friends, but I am grateful to everyone for being so kind to me. I felt that training in nature, unlike indoors, stimulated my senses that I didn’t normally use. Crawling over the grass again and again allowed me to relax, breathe and move with ease. The smell of grass and earth still comes back to me. The most interesting practice was to feel the density of the woods, to move in a way that suited the woods and to use trees, branches and leaves to protect yourself from partner’s knife. It gave me a realization. When the knife was taken away by my partner, it was so natural that I didn’t feel defeated. I felt like I was automatically surrendering to the woods. In this camp I was given a small seed. The seed is packed with several momentary, subtle feelings. A feeling of being able to recognize my partner in a crowd, even though I cannot see in the dark. A feeling of freedom that comes from releasing tension when submerged under water. A feeling of falling on my own without being forced by my partner. I want to grow this seed from now on. I am very happy to have had such a valuable experience. Thank you again for giving me this opportunity.
Mathias from Vienna Forest –
It really was the best week of my life! I am so thankful for this experience. I never felt so much Joy and Happiness! The people were great, it was overwhelming to experience such a group feeling. It was very well organised, for me it was perfectly structured. Before the Camp I already learned much ABOUT me, but I didn’t understand ME. With Systema, I feel that I understand myself more directly and can become myself or grow into myself. All the stuff I learned before is filled up with spirit now, is inspired now. WOW.

The depth and intensity of the training was exceptional. Challenging topics, drills, and work that pushed you to learn, excel and grow. I also really enjoyed the camaraderie of the group at this camp – diverse backgrounds and experience and all willing to train honestly and help each other.

Great to have such a variety of skill instructors on hand to get information I could not have gotten anywhere else.
Camp 2023 participant –
The Systema Camp experience is unique. The immersive experience allows accelerated learning and growth in the condensed time frame. While also providing a foundation of continued exploration of the topics long after the camp. Being outdoors in the various environments – field, forest, water, night – also greatly heightens the overall experience. It grounds you and allows the relaxation we seek to occur faster and more deeply. I am very much looking forward to future camps !! Thank you Vladimir and Valerie and all the Systema HQ team!!”
