🔷 Systema in Children – Growing Up Strong, Flexible and Confident
In a world where young people are subject to constant social, academic and emotional pressures, it is essential to offer them the tools to build themselves solidly, with confidence, calm and resilience.
the Systema, a martial art of Russian origin, offers exactly that: a complete approach that develops body, mind and emotional intelligence, without ever seeking to glorify violence.
🔹 Learning in motion… and in play
With the Systema Kids & Juniors, young people learn having funEach game, each exercise is designed to allow them to:
- know their body better,
- move with ease,
- fall and roll properly without hurting yourself,
- to free oneself from a seizure,
- use space to their advantage,
- work in pairs with respect for others,
- breathe consciously to manage effort, stress and pain.
From Yannick (chief instructor): Sometimes tough or military training, the lessons are rhythmic, lively, often fun, but always meaningful.
Every movement is a disguised lesson, which helps the child to gain autonomy, coordination, confidence and strength.
🔹 Progressive content, adapted to each age
👦 The youngest (kids) work mainly:
- of the simple projections (rolls, imbalances, passages on the ground without impact),
- there managing the fear of falling,
- there bobology (learning to get up, recognizing your limits, not panicking in case of minor pain),
- learning the softness in touch, and the channeling of energy,
- breathing in movement and on the ground, to stay calm and relaxed.
🧑 The juniors (pre-teens/teens) begin to:
- discover the striking system, its principles, its logic and its effects,
- learn to take it with the body, consciously, without brutality,
- explore more complex projections, where fluidity, balance and relaxation become central,
- deepen their mastery of advanced rolls and falls,
- strengthen their emotional and respiratory management in the face of pressure and impact.
🔹 Useful skills in everyday life
By practicing Systema, young people develop:
✅ Their flexibility, their functional strength and their adaptability
✅ Their self-confidence, by learning to defend yourself without brutality
✅ Their emotion management (stress, fear, frustration, anger)
✅ Their breathing, essential for calming down, recovering better and staying centered
✅ Their attention, their pressure resistance and their decision speed
✅ Their mastery of the body in movement, including on the ground
🔹 A human, educational and protective approach
The instructors are trained to supervise young people with kindness and rigor.
They are both educators, guides and mentors, listening to fears, small tensions and “dramas” that we learn to manage together with humor and calm.
Injuries are avoided thanks to specific work on falls, blockages, and above all, on self-control.
🔹 Like a little soldier… but in the service of humanity
The goal is not not to turn children into beastly, chewing fighters because in an ideal world, no child should ever have to defend themselves.
But in the real world, It is essential to give them the means to be stable, confident, resilient and resistant..
the Systema Kids & Juniors provides them with a solid physical, mental and emotional foundation without rigidity or fear.
Through play and practice, children progress without even realizing it.
And what they build… stays with them their whole lives.
🔹 Come and try
For the modest sum of 10 CHF, don't hesitate to come and discover this new kind of discipline.
A lively, human and profound course, where your children will learn much more than defending themselves.
