Systema Workshop: Mastering Multi-Attacker Dynamics

Time: 10am-4pm
Location: Iron Forge Jui Jitsu, 3412 GA-38, Blackshear, GA 31516

Instructor: Mark Jakabcsin (Studying Systema since 2001, Instructor since 2004)
Format: Training 10am-12:30pm, 1 hour break, train 1:30-4pm
Explore the critical nuances of Systema movement and structure (both physical and mental) when facing multiple attackers and escalating intensity.
While effective against a single opponent, conventional stances or tactics often prove inefficient in dynamic, multi-attacker scenarios. This intensive workshop will challenge your current understanding and develop your adaptive capabilities.
We’ll delve deep into how freedom of movement and relaxation are not just desirable traits, but essential catalysts for creative problem-solving in the chaotic environment of multiple threats. Prepare to enhance your skills by progressively introducing:
- Increased stress with weapons
- Higher numbers of attackers
- More intense attack dynamics
This workshop offers a unique opportunity to refine your Systema practice, equipping you with the adaptability and resilience needed for real-world application.
