Systema: The Third Weapon DVD by Max Franz

The special seminar conducted by Max Franz in Tokyo in July 2015 focused on "Strikes and knife defense from movement," showcasing his expertise as a senior instructor at Systema Toronto headquarters. Over two days, Franz covered essential topics such as posture alignment with breath control, preparing for strikes, understanding the impact of punches, and strategies for footwork and positioning relative to opponents.

The seminar also delved into techniques for grappling, managing fear in combat situations, and effectively handling knife attacks through precise distance management, angle positioning, and control methods. Participants gained insights into Systema's principles of movement, relaxation, and strategic combat applications, tailored to enhance their practical skills in self-defense and martial arts training.
