Episode 37: Josafath Herrera




Systema For Life show

Summary: "What is scary to you?  You are affected by your fear of pain, or your fear of the situation...So when you say 'violence', I say 'no - you have fear of the emotional state of the other guy'."Empassioned and uncompromising conversation with Josafath Herrera - veteran Systema Instructor, trainer to elite military and police teams, and founder of Systema Mexico. Here, we discuss the concept of congruence in a martial art; the body-mind feedback loop; attitudes toward violence; the fallacy of "pressure testing" with protective equipment; the critical importance of finding the right instructor; and the (questionable) value of experience.A lengthy discussion, but one rich with hard-earned truths. I hope you'll agree.Follow Systema Mexico on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/SystemaMexico/ (https://www.facebook.com/SystemaMexico/)Find out more about training with Josafath at https://www.facebook.com/inkoga/ (https://www.facebook.com/inkoga/) View a free video lesson on control and restraint here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBd9oqCmuxk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBd9oqCmuxk)
