Contactless combat how to learn. Non-contact combat: principles, foundations and counteraction

Published an article in a local magazine. I think it is interesting to my readers in LiveJournal.
In one of the previous issues, we promised to tell in more detail about non-contact combat - the biggest myth in modern martial arts. Since there are very few reliable sources, the author had to rely mostly on his own experience.

Origin of the myth

In the fact that an opponent can be hit without touching a finger, many adherents various kinds martial arts have always been believed. The grounds for this were all sorts of internal oriental styles and magical rituals. Even Fidel Castro was credited with the ability to control a person and hit him with the help of the magical passes of the African voodoo tribe. In Russia, a surge of interest in non-contact hand-to-hand combat occurred after the show on the REN-TV channel in the program "Military Secret" of frames from documentary film"Special Forces". Two people, dressed in the form of reconnaissance units of the Soviet model, scattered conditional opponents without the slightest touch.
This turned out to be enough to give rise to versions that since Soviet times, fighters of secret military units have been studying non-contact combat.

Later, witnesses appeared who, almost with their own eyes, observed how the founder of the Russian style Alexei Kadochnikov acted in a similar way .. There is even a corresponding view.

So the myth of non-contact combat acquired a Russian accent.

myth theory
The theoretical substantiation of contactless has western and eastern versions. The Western one is based on the fact that a person can be influenced remotely as a result of the concentration of mental and physical energy, which creates various voids and curvature in space, torsion fields, ultra-high frequency waves and similar things that are still incomprehensible to science. Hypnosis and a number of other psychotechniques are cited in favor of Western theory. To explain, then they explain, but no one can demonstrate, and most importantly, show the methodology for teaching such things. After all scientific approach and lies in the fact that any experiment based on proven laws can be repeated.
The eastern version, oddly enough, is more plausible. It is based on the fact that life energy circulates in a person in various forms and, knowing its laws, one can influence the state of the body. All oriental reflexology is built on this principle.
The martial application of the knowledge of internal energy has been embodied in numerous internal styles. Energy, along with blood, comes close to the surface of the body at different times of the day in different ways, and the fighter only needs to know the course of its circulation in order to strike at that part of the body where the blood is close to the surface. In this case, severe injury is likely to be inflicted, possibly even with subsequent death. The blow is also applied with the direction of one's own energy and not necessarily with a fist. A light touch is enough for masters to send you to the forefathers.
But if very light contact is possible, then why not contact at all? After all, masters who practice qigong therapy to treat patients in many cases do not even touch them with a finger.

Kiai-jutsu and Arkhangelsk tales
One of the real-life varieties of contactless hand-to-hand combat influence on the enemy by voice can be considered. In the system of Japanese martial arts, there is albeit a rare kiai-jutsu - the art of screaming. For the first time, it became known to wide circles after the release in 1962 of John Gilby's book "Secret Martial Arts". John Gilbey was a kind of American Kharlampiev, who collected around the world not techniques for fighting sambo, but methods capable of quickly and effectively, if not killing, then reliably incapacitating a person. By coincidence, Gilby met with a Japanese specialist in Tokyo and experienced the effects of kiai jutsu on himself. From the cry of the Japanese american fighter who had excellent physical form just passed out
In Japanese kiai-jutsu there is nothing unusual for Europe, for a Russian person. The Japanese simply, in their own style, noticed the ability of a sound of a certain frequency and longitude to affect the human body and developed training techniques. We just scream and sing. Many cases have been recorded when Russian people, including women, met wild animals in the forest and even bears fell dead from an unexpected cry. From the voice of famous opera singers, for example, Caruso, glass glasses and goblets burst. The militant cry of "Hurrah" awed the opponents on the battlefield. Yes, and the word "panic" was born from the name of the ancient Greek god Pan, whose cries frightened people.
And remember the folklore - the Italian fairy tale about the boy Gelsamino, who had the strongest voice, or the tales of the Russian coast-dwellers. Based on one of the fairy tales, a magnificent cartoon was shot, dubbed by Evgeny Leonov, about a woman-Pilikha, who filled up a bear with her voice. So, the Japanese master of kiai-jutsu is by no means a literary fiction of John Gilbey.

I don't see, I don't believe...
Despite my almost complete religious education in martial arts, I always refrain from mysticism and therefore am guided by the principle of "if I don't see, I won't believe." And even better - until I spar, I won’t believe it. I was lucky that in the period from 1988 to 1998 I had the opportunity to see a lot of fighters, to train in various sections and schools of hand-to-hand combat, incl. and in the section of Tadeusz Kasyanov, who played the role of the boatswain in the famous film Pirates of the 20th Century. I saw different fighters and heard different tales, but I never saw the real use of non-contact combat. Neither in civilian life, nor while serving in the army.
Supporters of the version that non-contact combat exists and is practiced are appealed by numerous videos. However demonstration performances modern, incl. Russian fighters raise serious doubts about the reality of what is happening. One of the few trustworthy records are the speeches of the founder of aikido, Morihei Ueshiba. The aikido master has repeatedly demonstrated how men of different heights and different weight, karateka, judoists flew away from one of his strokes. And he never refused to demonstrate his art.

Reliable can be considered evidence of the ability to hit the enemy without making contact, the creator of modern judo Jigaro Kano, as well as Sun Lutang (Sun Fuquan) - one of the greatest masters in the history of Chinese wushu and a number of Chinese specialists whose names will say little to Stavropol to the reader.
There are several reasons to trust these masters. Firstly, they devoted their whole lives to the comprehension of martial arts. Secondly, they all emphasized the development and management of internal energy. Thirdly, each of them spent real life fights not for life, but for death.

The "Master Touchless" promised $5,000 to fight him. Here's what came out of it...

On the way to comprehension
Naturally, being interested in such things, I myself repeatedly began to study internal various internal styles, methods for controlling internal energy and the possibility of defeating the enemy at a distance. What was the concrete outcome of this? Indeed, as sparring with various partners shows, the combat technique has become softer and more economical. Opponents, even physically much stronger, get tired much faster. During the period of intensive training, the movements become an order of magnitude faster, in the palms of the hands one feels a certain warmth and heaviness, which you transmit at the moment of contact with the opponent, and he loses his balance outwardly from mild pushes. However, in a real fight, I am unlikely to trust the internal styles, and even more so the developments in non-contact combat, and I will wait until a hooligan on the street hits me in the jaw with his fist. Most likely, I myself will inflict some kind of “dirty” crown blow - for example, with a foot in the knee area or with a fist on spread fingers or on outside brushes. Or I'll try to knock out my elbow. Believe me - it is very painful and effective. If not a fracture, then a strong pain shock is provided. And most importantly - very unexpected.
Nevertheless, the exercises that the great masters did gave quite concrete results, albeit in a different plane. First, reducing the time needed for sleep to 5-6 hours. Secondly, the ability to concentrate. By exercising, you will be less distracted by various temptations. I would compare this effect with the smart work of prayer, which the monks do every second. Consciousness moves in the shortest way to the chosen goal and is not distracted by interference.
Thirdly, the ability to unconsciously predict the situation and a more holistic perception of the world. It will sometimes seem to you that you are a prophet without five minutes. But in reality it is more effective work brain. In addition, you will read information from the surrounding space, incl. and that which is not perceived by the senses. This effect will expand your creativity, whether you are in business, administrative work or journalism.
Fourth, not only improving your health, but also the ability to help other people. Management of internal energy at first requires certain knowledge of how the “chi” energy flows inside the body, but by practicing, you yourself begin to comprehend the laws of its movement. And if necessary, you can alleviate the condition of strangers in a couple of minutes and greatly reduce or remove altogether, for example, a headache or toothache. Or treat diseases. By the way, practicing martial internal styles or health-improving forms of qigong and tai chi practically guarantee getting rid of such a very common and painful nuisance as a migraine, which modern medicine has not yet learned to fully cope with.
Fifthly, it has become easier to communicate with people, to get in touch. Sometimes I caught myself thinking that I was on the verge of manipulating my interlocutor. This effect was quite successfully implemented in journalism and in one of my main activities of the recent past - I was involved in elections, developed strategies for election campaigns, created campaign materials, commercials, etc. But I hope I gave up on elections.

Where to begin? First steps
The key to mastering non-contact combat is a good state of health, the accumulation of internal energy. Only in a healthy body can internal energy accumulate and be directed to an external source. Therefore, at first, you will work on restoring health, curing diseases. Classes along with other activities (herbal medicine, taking bee products, diet, restoration of intestinal flora, etc.) will significantly improve your condition in a few months. In a strong half, including a sharp increase in male abilities.
The second stage is the possibility of the consciousness reaching the borderline state. Thanks to this, you will achieve a number of the above effects.
The third step is the ability to concentrate. In training, you should concentrate on your physical energy sensations - how your hand moves, how energy flows, what you feel around you. First at rest, then in motion.
As for the exercises themselves and the time for training. At first, any internal styles will suit you, as well as a simple complex breathing exercises and plus training in the skill of "standing a pillar." Especially effective are tai chi, bagua and some types of qigong.
Ideally, the more you do, the better. But in practice, the effect will be even from morning classes lasting an hour and a half. It is advisable to add to them evening or daily workouts. If classes are only in the morning, then 40-45 minutes should be devoted to breathing and standing in a column.
In general, standing as a pillar is one of the best exercises of the preparatory stage. Therefore, I will dwell on it in more detail. It is not necessary to stand in the classic tai chi or bagua pose. Stand straight, feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent. The body is relaxed, hands in front of you, in elbow joint bent more than 90 degrees. In the wrist joint also bend. The palms are half open, the fingers are spread and look at each other. As if you are holding the ball in front of you. The tip of the tongue is pressed against the upper palate. Breathing is even, quiet. Wait for 10 minutes, listen to the sensations. Were you able? what about 20 minutes? Try not to think about anything else. It is concentration at rest, you master the inner consciousness. The movement requires even more concentration, because you are not only doing exercises, but also assessing the surrounding situation in terms of energy. It's much more difficult than waving your arms.
These recommendations will be enough for you for the first months, and then fate and the body will tell you where to go next. Of course, it is best to learn these things with an instructor, but people with an open mind have access to all the secrets of this world. You just have to want.

One big, small "but"
Comprehension at advanced stages of controlling one's own, as well as an opponent, energy and consciousness requires not only time and perseverance, but one very serious limitation - limiting the number of sexual contacts, especially those ending in ejaculation. Strongly without going into theory, we can say that there are two reasons for this. First, energy consumption. The Taoists who laid the foundation for internal styles believed that sexual intercourse takes away internal energy. An overly active sex life along with training will undermine your health, instead of strengthening it. Of course, there is a way out, such as practicing the Tao of Love, but this is a completely different topic. The second reason is a kind of restructuring of consciousness. A person in whose mind the sexual instincts are suppressed and consciously controlled thinks quite differently. He becomes less aggressive.
A similar position is held not only by the methods of combat use of energy and consciousness, but also by other spiritual and physical practices. For example, Christianity. It is no secret to anyone that Orthodox monks and Catholic priests adhere to a vow of celibacy. Celibacy was also adhered to by the fathers of the Christian Church, numerous saints who performed miracles much more incomprehensible than the skills of martial artists. Among the wellness practices, I will note the well-known complex Tibetan monks"Eye of rebirth", restoring youth and health. It is actively promoted by a well-known acrobatics coach in our region and a supporter of healthy lifestyle life of Vasily Skakun. However, in his classes, five exercises of the complex are given. The sixth can be performed only when sexual intercourse has ceased.
I hope that it will become clear to the reader who has mastered this text to the end - that contactless combat theoretically has the right to exist. But in modern life we are unlikely to meet people who own it at the level of practical application. Too many of them have to give up in order to later become famous and transfer their knowledge to incomprehensible hands and heads.

Many martial artists have been aware of the existence of non-contact combat since ancient times. Its essence is that opponents can hit each other without any physical contact.

The opponent becomes ill, he honors the pain, loses his balance and this is far from all that can be done. This happens due to the influence on the biofield of the enemy, the energy of the body, which cannot be seen.

Non-contact combat technique with proper assimilation - powerful weapon. The masters say that it makes no sense to learn it if you have no experience in ordinary martial arts and you do not know hand-to-hand combat, at least the basics.

Advantages

What is contactless combat is understandable, but what are its advantages? The answer to this question is obvious. A fighter who owns this technique is able to fight with a dozen enemies, doing it easily and simply.

However, he does not need to touch the enemy, at all. In this case, there is an invisible influence on the human biofield, his consciousness. That's fantastic!

Fight without bruises, fractures or bruises of all kinds. If you master the technique, you can fight with the enemy, and you do not need to have huge biceps. Only willpower and strength of mind are important here.

First steps in learning

This is a whole art, you can master the technique while being healthy, having a good physical shape, having accumulated internal energy, and doing it at home.

But it can accumulate only if the body is completely healthy.

So, first of all, you need to put your body in order, heal yourself from various diseases. The education system is quite complex.

The next step is that you can reach the consciousness of the borderline state. This will allow you to achieve many beneficial effects, including those mentioned above.

The third step is learning concentration. While training, you must learn to concentrate on your own sensations, to feel how the hand moves, and energy flows through it. First learn this at rest, and then on the move.

Of course, the more time you spend on training, the better. A positive result will be, even if you practice in the morning for 30-40 minutes.

It is even better to practice in the evening. By the way, best exercise- standing upright. Try to do it as often as possible and other useful tricks.

Good to know: classes at times will increase the state of your health, men will improve potency.

Notable fighters

Morihei Ueshiba

One of the masters who laid the foundations of non-contact combat is Morihei Ueshiba, the founder of .

Even as an old man, he continued to show the lessons of his mastery of this combat technique.

He carried out the purification of his own body, as well as the spirit, every day in the morning, going out under an icy mountain waterfall.

The Japanese Sensei, Founder and Great Teacher lived to be 85 years old.

Gerard Blaise

Another example is the French master Gerard Blaise.

He had many teachers, already in 1996 he achieved the fact that he was able to get the 7th dan of aikido.

He has been engaged in martial arts for 48 years, his whole life is wrestling.

Already at a respectable age, Gerard became interested in non-contact combat.

Many great masters were able to master non-contact combat only after 30-40 years of hard training.

Perhaps it is at this age that a person begins to realize that this technique is not fiction or mysticism.

This type of combat is based on the fact that you need to interact with the enemy at the level of consciousness, share your energy with him, positive or negative.

Kadochnikov A. A.

This fighting style is a combination of the knowledge that has been gained, as well as the fortitude and thought process.

Among the Russian gurus, of course, it is necessary to note the creator of one of the most famous hand-to-hand combat systems in the world, Alexei Alekseevich Kadochnikov. Read more about his training system at.

Of course, there are people who refute this technique, considering the adherents of this movement to be sick people.

Everyone has the right to their opinion, and there is no point in trying to convince anyone that contactless combat is a reality.

Contactless fight- this is the ability to influence the enemy without contact with him.
If you type in Google search for the phrase "non-contact combat", then you can get at least a couple of thousand results. More than half will assure you that this technique is available to them, and others that by paying a certain amount of money, it will be available to you. And all this power in just a couple of dozen sessions. Is it so?
Let's see which of the famous masters demonstrated non-contact combat. Perhaps the most famous of the masters is O-Sensei (Morihei Ueshiba)- Founder of Aikido.

Indeed, there are shots where he demonstrates a non-contact fight, but first, it should be noted that he demonstrates this already at an advanced age, having practiced ju-jutsu (柔術) and ken-jutsu (剣術) for about 40 years, as well as being master of Daito-ryu Aiki-jujutsu. It is also reliably known that Morihei Ueshiba practiced the misogi rite - cleansing the body and spirit under a cold mountain waterfall falling directly on the top of the head.

Another of the martial artists demonstrating non-contact combat - This is Gerard Blaise.

Demonstrates truly outstanding non-contact fighting skills. How did he learn this? At the age of 17, he began to practice judo and aikido in France, then went to Japan and studied for five years with a ponytail at the Hombu Dojo in Tokyo with Kisshomaru Ueshiba and Seigo Yamaguchi. Then he began to study with Michio Hititsuchi. As a result, in 1996 he received the 7th dan of Aikido. He also has 7th dan Shindo Muso-ryu Jojutsu, 5th dan Masakatsu Bojutsu. The total experience of martial arts is approximately 48 years.

The next on the list of non-contact combat masters is Alexander Lavrov.

This is where it starts very interesting story. Firstly, there is practically no exact information about this person. Rumor has it that he served in the GRU special forces and, together with A. Kadochnikov, conducted training for personnel. Although there is no confirmation of this fact. It is known that he created the Shkval survival system, and was seen in joint seminars with V. Starov. I know more complete information about this person, although there are enough videos with his demonstrations of non-contact combat on the network.

Oddly enough, but these are all masters who demonstrate non-contact combat in public, and not only on their students, but on everyone. But then the mysticism begins. Well, firstly, the smaller the club or section and the more exotic the direction, the more masters of non-contact combat. All sorts of secret schools of Cossack combat, Old Slavic pagan schools and other extra-secret styles that give their adherents complete invulnerability, will require a certain fee. True, this is bad luck, they demonstrate this mainly on their own students and refuse to demonstrate on the audience under the pretext of preserving the life and health of the audience. Yes, and that's true, otherwise the spectator is a boxer, and he is not familiar with such a concept as a non-contact fight. He, to that adherent, of the “great mumba-yumba” style, sticks straight lines and finishes the demonstration with an uppercut. Sadness will be with contactless combat.
So what conclusion can be drawn about non-contact combat? It is hardly possible to dispute its existence. This phenomenon is present and recorded by both famous martial artists and modern scientists. But none of the masters clearly indicate that his fighting style or training methodology leads to the development of non-contact combat. All masters are engaged in CONTACT fighting, and only after a very long time, usually more than 30-40 years, do they begin to demonstrate non-contact fighting techniques. If you are offered to study the “secret” style, to learn the secrets of the original Slavic, Chinese, Mumba-Yumba tribes and for just one seminar or a few thousand rubles, then you can be sure that this is a divorce and profanity. And it’s better to spend your time and money on training in a normal gym, where, of course, they won’t teach you how to win with the power of thought, but they will definitely teach you how to keep your bones intact. And yes, it will be healthier. And if you don’t know where to go to train, then go to the “Map” section on the site and choose proven martial arts schools in Togliatti.

Many martial artists have known about non-contact combat since ancient times. This is a technique when there is no physical contact between opponents, there is no impact of physical force, but at the same time your opponent feels their impact. He loses his balance, falls, feels pain, and may even become completely out of action. Mastery of non-contact combat is considered the highest level of achievement in various techniques fight. Other techniques are also used here - this is work with the biofield, the invisible energy of the body. Non-contact combat is a terrible weapon if you master it competently and correctly. Masters say that it makes no sense to master this technique if you have no experience in ordinary martial arts.

Where does the GRU get contactless combat from?

The theory of the origin of this technique has both eastern and western variants. The most famous master of non-contact combat in the East is Morihei Ueshiba, the founder of aikido. The masters explain the phenomenon of this technique by the presence of Qi energy, the density of which can be regulated and thus significantly affect the opponent. An outstanding Russian master teaching non-contact combat, Alexander Leonidovich Lavrov, entered the history of special services along with such names as Kadochnikov and Vishnevetsky. These people theoretically and practically developed training methods for both hand-to-hand and non-contact combat. Alexander Lavrov - specialist in the preparation of parts of the development unit practices, resorted to the peculiarities of human psychology and psychophysics.

But his abilities seem magical only at first glance, when a person himself begins to practice, he understands that the technique of non-contact combat is knowledge of psychology, anatomy, physiology and energy-information structures of a person. The Lavrov system was created in order to reduce the number of casualties among military personnel. It includes the basics of Russian combat techniques Kadochnikov and Vishnevetsky.

Shkval system

This system, proposed by Lavrov, is aimed at saving the lives of soldiers and officers in combat conditions. In it he used own methods, sometimes going against the grain. For example, his students slept with their personal weapons, although according to the rules they were required to hand them over. Thus, they ceased to be afraid of a knife or a pistol, realized their lethality, but they themselves no longer fell into a stupor when attacking the enemy. The fighters began to better navigate in combat conditions, better wielded weapons. Lavrov notices: people learn faster in war, and explains this by a feature of the psyche. When a real threat of death looms over a person, reserve abilities wake up in him. Non-contact combat using the Shkval system is a development that has not only helped dozens of fighters return alive from combat zones. It was also noted that they did not have a post-war syndrome and psychological trauma. All Lavrov's techniques are scientifically substantiated today, as the colonel worked with leading neurophysicists in Russia, understanding the features of the human brain.
