WEAPONS: Beyond the Edge Seminar with Vladimir Vasiliev
📅 November 7–8, 2026
📍 Systema HQ Toronto

Take the rare opportunity to master your skills of working against and with edged weapons, impact weapons, spike weapons, and training fi****ms.

Practice at various distances, positions, and speeds. Learn the dangers each weapon presents, how to protect yourself against them, recognize the signs of a pending attack, and ways to prevent it.

You will study:
• How to work against stabs, cuts, single jabs, and shanking
• How not to freeze before the blade if the attacker feints a stab
• Escape and counter in one move versus multi-directional movements. Plus much more, including awareness, relaxation, movement, prevention, and control.

Train to be ready when the threat is real.
In-person or online.

FAQ: Why do we train slowly? 💬

In Systema, we train at middle speed, not necessarily slowly. It looks slow because the movements are smooth and relaxed.

Speed has to be reasonable so that you understand where the movement was wrong and are able to learn. Understanding liberates you from fear and tension. So, what seems slow is actually calm.
