Systema group classes

A living martial art, a path to personal progression

Group classes are the best way to discover Systema in all its richness: bare-handed work, defense against fake weapons (knife, stick, gun), stress management, breathing, movement and emotions.

Here, no grades or competitions : the emphasis is on developing your true effectiveness, your adaptability, and your inner calm. You evolve within a framework of mutual learning, where each partner helps you better understand your reactions, your automatisms, and transform them.

Each session is based on the fundamental principles of Systema :

  • a biomechanics without internal tension to move with ease and efficiency,

  • a fluid percussion, resulting from relaxation and structure,

  • a functional breathing to keep calm and recover,

  • a internal relaxation to defuse physical and mental tensions,

  • a work on the nervous system, to remain lucid in the face of the unexpected,

  • and training in invisible movement, without tension or ostentation, to neutralize without attacking.

Systema invites you to explore your body and mind from the inside out. You learn to manage pressure, defuse conflict, and cope with fluidity and discernment—whether in action or in everyday life.

Joining a group class means choosing a living, human and deeply educational martial art.
Come discover a free, respectful and demanding training space, where we progress together to become more aware, more responsive, and more serene.

🔍 WHY DO SYSTEMA? – A new vision of confrontation

In a world where confrontation is often experienced as brutal opposition—of force, ego, control—Systema offers a radically different path: understand before resisting, breathe before acting, feel before striking.

Because the real danger is not always the other: it is our own tension, our fear, our rigidity in the face of the unexpected.

Systema is a martial art that teaches you to manage intensity without tension, to move under pressure without breaking, to remain human even in extreme situations. It relies on simple, powerful, coherent tools, which transform you profoundly:

✅ Breathing as an anchor, to calm the mind, move through pain and maintain clear vision in the chaos.
✅ Natural biomechanics, to relearn how to move without getting hurt, hit without tension, fall without suffering.
✅ Internal relaxation, to defuse destructive automatisms, avoid overreaction and remain lucid.
✅ The nervous system as a compass, in order to listen to what is happening inside you… and around you.
✅ The so-called invisible work, where effectiveness is not measured by visible force, but by the ability to neutralize without provoking.

the "how" is simple: we start with the breath, we enter into the movement, we let the body find its natural intelligence.
The goal? Emerging from the conflict in one piece — physically, mentally, emotionally.

This course is aimed at anyone who wishes to:
– move away from a binary vision of combat,
– regain power without violence,
– improve your calm in crisis situations,
– or simply feel free, stable and ready, whatever the circumstances.

💬 When combat no longer transforms you into a frozen block or a punching machine, but into a living, adaptive and lucid being... then the confrontation becomes a dance, and no longer a war.

Great course 👏. I was surprised by all the activities done to show us that it is Systema. An art of living, moving and controlling an attacker. I really liked it and would like to learn more. Thank you very much Yannick
