HIT DIFFERENT .

With the light and simple movement of his fist alone, Vladimir Vasiliev is able to apply stealthy and shocking power of greater depth and freedom than professional heavyweight boxers can achieve with their entire focused mass, strength, torque, and momentum.

Vladimir's spontaneous and intelligent strikes work against any target, from any position, for immediate resolution of armed or unarmed confrontations, for energizing a partner, and even for healing. These strikes are the culmination of precise movement, impeccable timing, exact contact calibration and extraordinary emotional clarity. This is the meaning of "Hit Different".

In STRIKES: Soul Meets Body, chief Systema instructor Vladimir Vasiliev reveals the physical and psychological training regimen that underlies this unprecedented martial arts capability, rooted in centuries of Russian combative and spiritual tradition.

From the depth of the soul to the edge of the knuckles,
experience the truth and the power.

« Un couteau qui s’approche de vous est aussi oppressant que la mort.

Sentir la menace et y répondre doivent se faire simultanément »

-Vladimir Vasiliev

Ceci n’est pas n’importe quel livre. La plupart des ouvrages sur le sujet vous disent : « Il n’y a pas de défense possible, il faut juste courir » ou « Commencez par frapper l’arrière de la main de votre adversaire… ». Que se passe-t-il si vous paniquez et que vos mains tremblent, que vous avez peur et que vous vous figez sur place, appréciez mal la distance et que vous vous faites poignarder ou si un membre de votre famille est présent et que vous ne pouvez pas vous enfuir ? Le problème est trop profond pour y répondre avec des techniques et des slogans.

Les trois sections de ce livre (Le couteau en main, À la pointe du couteau et Signes de danger) vous donnent tout ce qui est nécessaire pour développer votre intuition, votre vigilance, votre dextérité, la fluidité de vos esquives et une véritable liberté de mouvement.

Vladimir Vasiliev, un des fondateurs du Systema, vous apprend à désarmer un couteau à n’importe quelle étape d’une attaque. Son programme d’entraînement va révolutionner votre perception et vous permettre se sentir une attaque arriver bien avant que votre vie ne soit en jeu et vous donner une chance de survivre.

Désarmez votre peur, aiguisez votre vigilance et votre maîtrise.
