CAN YOU CROSS THE RED VELVET ROPE? Can you be one of the select few to practice SYSTEMA, the Russian Martial Art? PROBABLY NOT. This unique martial system requires those chosen to look into themselves and follow a path of dynamic growth and development. It is probably too much for you. It isn't for most people. SYSTEMA brings so much more to the rare individuals who are able to appreciate it that it requires something more from them too. Just showing up when you feel like it and going through the motions wont cut it. Sorry. It has been said, to know SYSTEMA you must come to KNOW YOURSELF, and it is doubtful you can separate yourself from the herd and rise to the challenge. It's ok! There are plenty of McDojos out there teaching "partial arts". They are ready to stroke your ego with promotions and take your money with testing fees. Practice your forms and get another stripe on your belt; this is where most people are comfortable and probably where you will feel most at home. Leave SYSTEMA for people who want to walk "the road less traveled", who want a challenge and to dig for the deeper lessons. The secrets SYSTEMA reveals are outside your comfort zone, so you probably shouldn't even bother.
If, however, you are tired of the typical martial arts experience and you want a practice with the potential to change your life, ROANOKE SYSTEMA GROUP is taking applications for new student enrollment, visit www.systema-va.com, or call 540-312-9832 to learn more.
