This episode, we catch up with world-renowned martial artist, Senior Systema Instructor, and founder of The Academy, Los Angeles - Martin Wheeler. Recorded shortly after the East Coast Systema Summit 2019, we discuss his groudbreaking lessons and demonstrations at the Summit, and reveal some of the thinking behind his training and teaching methods. Including:
the inherent value of orthodox (or 'classical') fighting wisdom
training for a fight, versus training for its own sake
the dangers of arrogance, hubris, and certainty of knoweldge in martial arts
