I trained at Toronto headquarters and trust me mate it is not rehearsed at all - watching Vlad work is incredible and believe me systema is a great martial art - I learnt more in 5 weeks than I learnt doing 14 years of other martial arts.
But don't take my word for it - try a class - it will be a life changing decision. Good luck to you

straight up in systema you learn much faster.
systema is a methology of learning and discovering.There are no techniques or katas or list of names to remember.Just major concepts and a lot of excercise and learning to relax and feel comfortable
I have done Aikido .You learn much faster in systema.
and it is lights years ahead of karate
Systema seem to me what aikido should have been

I could watch, do and talk about Systema all day. Love it. In fact, nothing I don't love about it. Wonderful. I'm going to go before I start going on about how good it is. :D

great video.In fact one of his best.
easy to learn from and in fact when you watch it you will even wonder why you yourself did not realise what you could have done against multiple attackers
-
he looks so chill and nonchalant about fending off three guys lol
-
this may be one of his top three videos.I love this DVD
I like "in confined space"
After watching his knife fundamental DVD I was bitten by the systema bug

wow long time ago you posted this.
I hope you still reply.
I know for a fact that in aikido they strive to be empty in your mind while you fight.
The last dan have to fight like nobody is "there".
In order to achieve that you have to practice for 15 years 3 a 4 times per week.
How is that going in Systema ?
Very curious.
It looks easy when it's choreographed!

Understandable it may seem that way if you havent tried Systema first hand. In fact, in ANY Systema DVDs, demos or classes nothing is ever choreographed, prearranged or rehearsed. All moves are spontaneous, natural & free. This makes Systema different. Unrehearsed response IS the only way to acquire true skill & be ready for any attack. Those who studied Systema with Mikhail or myself have experienced this spontaneity. If not, you are always welcome to check out any training sessions or events
