The Melbourne Systema Difference
At Melbourne Systema we don’t believe that you have to be the tough guy type to be good in martial arts. In fact we feel that the tough guise so prevalent in today’s martial art circles is used to cover up a lot of fear and insecurity.
We understand you train with partners not opponents. This is why we have a ZERO ego and ZERO competitive policy.
We will challenge you and you will have to dig down deep in training. But being challenged, performing at your best and reaching your full potential in martial arts doesn’t require you to destroy or beat the guy opposite you.
So if you want to train with some cool people, have fun learning an exciting and effective martial art, in a place where you can just be yourself — then Melbourne Systema is for you.
Melbourne Systema, More Than Just Fighting
In today’s competitive society there is way too much focus on the ‘fight’. Often people’s self worth is tied up in who they can and can’t beat.
While the ability to effectively apply your martial art skill in a performance environment is important and even necessary, it is not the only reason we train martial arts. The fact that most people training martial arts today will likely never use it in a ‘fight’ or in the cage — one then has to ask the obvious question why train martial arts at all?
For hundreds of years training in martial arts has always been seen as an endeavour that transcends the effectiveness of the fight, into life performance.
This is why training at Melbourne Systema will not only teach you effective martial arts, but gives you the tools to perform at your best in life and your career.
