Frank Arias, a personal student of Vladimir Vasiliev for over 10 years, a Senior International Systema Instructor was recently featured in the DVD “Car Fight” and the 2007 United Nations Systema demonstration. Most recently Frank has been teaching an acclaimed seminar series at York University in Toronto. Frank brings to you years of experience from his training at headquarters. Frank’s complete control of the smallest movement along with lightening reflexes, testify to the effect of long term Systema Conditioning. Frank excels at the integration of your combative, physical and psychological resources. “When you move well, you can move continuously with the opponent. Then you can adapt to their attack and evade naturally while also staying with them, where the work you can do finds you. When you are relaxed you can see from where you are, like the branches of a tree, 3 or 4 creative possibilities for work appearing from movement, each choice creating 3 or 4 more. Imagine the interplay of shoulder, elbow, hand, hip, knee and foot. At any time, if you discount the weighted leg, 9 of 12 bilateral weapons are available.” Frank will show you how to use Systema to be continuously creative in combat, while preserving both your health and humanity. Combining subtlety with explosive bursts of power when least expected, Frank is well known for his “honesty” or realism in combat . |
