About the Group
The Systema training group "St. Alexander Nevski" began in November 2016, in the Dorcol neighborhood of Belgrade. Since then, we've attended and participated in several international seminars, as well as hosting a number of local workshops and seminars, in collaboration with the training group from Zarkovo.
Why St. Alexander Nevski? First, very simple - our first training location was located directly behind the church dedicated to the saint. Secondly, the Prince of Novgorod Alexander Nevsky and later saint, was well known as a defender of Russia and Orthodoxy against various external threads. He is known for the addage - "who comes to us by the sword, shall die by it".
The group, and the trainings are lead by Nikola Smiljanic
