Spiro Spanos

Spiro began his journey into Systema in 2004 just as he started to study for a kinesiology degree at Camosun. By 2009 Spiro decided that Systema was a better fit, so he opened his own gym and began to run Systema classes.

Classes ran successfully for 7 years before he took some time out to focus on family. But the training never stopped and has become an integral part of his life as a means to stay healthy and able. Systema is not just about being a “bad ass” martial art, but a way to manage and remove stress and tension from the mind and body.

This has untold realistic reach for people in all walks of life and is at the core of why he continues to teach this unique and profound art.
