10 people now training with Steve in our Systema Start-Up program at ICS. I had the chance to watch as he guided them through the Relaxation pillar tonight. Articulate, precise and engaging instruction by Steve established a bond of trust and care. Systema at its best. And Steve reminded me in his approach that we should strive to keep the proper sense of balance, of proportion, that serves us not only in Systema, but also in life. We can - and should - strive to do the VERY BEST of which we are capable, but at the same time we neednt feel responsibility for things beyond our control. Olympic athletes have become champions by learning to focus on what they can control, unleashing their best-strengths, and to dismiss the rest. Thank you Steve.
