An Unprecedented Collaboration
Systema Singapore is extremely excited to host one of the most exciting collaborations in the martial art world this December. Join us for 4 days of intensive training with leading instructors Kwan Lee and Ryo Onishi for a tidal wave of power and acuity work that will accelerate the development of any martial artist’s skills and open them up to the possibilities of the martial art world.
Tactics of Perception is a topic chosen to be the through line to which both of these instructors can pour out their knowledge into the participating crew. This seminar is designed for martial artists looking to bring their skills to a higher level or for those looking to further explore the boundaries of human capability. We welcome anyone new to Systema to the seminar to participate but we highly recommend some preparatory classes for this seminar to best benefit from it.
Kwan Lee
Kwan Lee is the founder and director of Systema USA and is based in Seattle.
As described by Vladimir Vasiliev who is a Distinguished Veteran of High-Risk Special Operations Units and Founder of Systema:
“Certainly one of the top and most experienced Systema Instructors, Mr. Kwan Lee has exceptional skills in Systema. Kwan moves in a true Systema style, smooth and precise, his understanding of every aspect of Systema is deep and profound. Kwan’s fundamental personal integrity, strength and talent make him an outstanding instructor. I know that training with Kwan will make students competent in self defense as well as more healthy and solid individuals.”
Aside from his accomplishments in his combative skills, Kwan has extensive firearms and survival training and has taught the military and law enforcements as well as advised on security orginizations.
An engineer by trade, Kwan’s teaching style is highly analytical and methodological. His background in the martial arts include Shotokan Karate, Chinese Kung Fu, Indonesian Pencak Silat, and Philipino Martial Arts.
Kwan is featured in the “Strength and Flexibility” film from Systema HQ.
Ryo Onishi
The chief instructor of Systema Osaka, Ryo Onishi is based in the Kansai region of Japan.
“It is very important to study from him, because he has very good knowledge – he is a very good master” – Vladimir Vasiliev
Well known for his intuitive teaching style, Ryo is one of the most demanded instructors and frequently travels to teach in seminars from the UK, Europe and Asia.
His background includes more than 20 years of Kendo, Goju-Ryu Karate, Judo and Bujinkan Budo Taijutsu. He has been featured in the films “From Relaxation to Power” and “Tension & Impact”
18 hours of training
Whether you are new to Systema or just giving it a try for the first time, the special class and seminar provides a good amount of time for you to soak into the lessons. With a nurturing community and open learning format, you will be sure to take back a huge amount of learning through the course of the weekend.
Designed for skill development
The seminar is targeted at practitioners with some background looking to increase their skills. The training itself will still be suitable for people of all levels, but we do make the recommendation for those completely new to any art form of practice to attend all the special classes aside from the seminar as the special classes help to provide a fundamental skillset from which to understand the seminar topics and how to apply them to your art.
To help with the seminar learning, we will be offering a special deal for new comers to Systema by offering 4 sessions of training at a highly discounted rate. Please take advantage of the sessions.
Seminar etiquette
Our seminars are held in a friendly manner – if you have a question or request, don’t be afraid to ask your training partner or the instructors for help and we will do what we can to help. All we ask is that you help to maintain a respectful environment for the other attendees and a culture of helping each other to learn.
Please dress in comfortable and modest clothing that you do not mind getting ruined – it could happen! We also recommend bringing a change of clothes.
During the seminar days, the break might not be long enough to head out to buy food or drinks. We recommend bringing some drinks and snacks sufficient to keep your energy levels up. Eating extremely large meals is not recommended.
