Is Systema An Effective Martial Art?

People online often ask, "Is Systema effective?"

A fair question to be sure. Here's the truth, the effectiveness of any martial art comes from the practitioner, not the art.

We are all human and subject to the same stressors and stimuli. If you get hit correctly it's lights out.

If someone gets a proper submission hold or breaking technique applied to you, well so sorry.

It's more important that we spend the time training and pushing ourselves towards constant improvement instead of arguing over which system is superior.

Good human movement is just good human movement.
