| Introduction | Spyro Katsigiannis has trained in various self defense systems, martial arts and combat sports since 1985. He became a certified instructor in Systema RMA in 2007, by Mikhail Ryabko and Andreas Weitzel, and he expanded his knowledge of Russian fighting styles by training in ROSS (The Native Russian System of Self Defense) with Alexander Retuinskih and Frank Etherson, in SAMBO with Vadim Kolganov, and in Systema Homo Ludens with Alexander Kostic. Spyro is a certified instructor in Filipino Kali and has a national certification as a San Shou (Chinese kickboxing) coach by the Greek ministry of sports. He has competed and coached athletes in San Shou. He has also received training in Eagle Claw Kung Fu (Ying Zhao Fan Zi Men), YiQuan and Judo. In 2008 he founded the Göteborgs Systema-RMA Klubb, today known as the Göteborg Dynamo Club, with the goal of integrating the common elements of all modern Russian Martial Art styles, rather than representing and promoting a specific Russian “brand” of martial arts activity. He represents the Russian All-Around Fighting Federation in Sweden. He has written a number of blog articles on the history and training methodology of Russian Martial Art. |
