i'm sure everyone understands as well that what Martin is teaching now is pretty much completely contradictary to kenpo, and cannot, i my opinion be totally comprehended in one seminar or class with him. my first systema class was a fairly big system shock for me as well, but after learning more about it and practicing it a bit more i have come to appreciate it more than i can express in words. systema does seem werid at first, even silly, but that passes if you stay with it for a little bit.
sorry about getting a little off topic.
