Sharon Friedman – Vigilance and Tranquility

It is stressed everywhere that the good are very good at the basics. Try this dril from the systema guide book and see what you can learn from it: From the ground have two people hold your arms or hands or any combination of your limbs (the head is more dangerous with its nerves and joints so leave it for later but not out of the loop) and start to roll and twist him so he has to relax under this tension and survive. It is a simple drill and not impressive to the eye but you learn to move naturally and relax inside and that is of value.
