Your First Training Session

Getting Ready to Train

Before your first session, make sure you have:

• A small space to move (2x2 meters is enough)
• Comfortable workout clothes
• Water nearby
• Optional: Training gloves, focus mitts

Types of Training

SAMI-X offers several ways to train:

Guided Trainings

Guided trainings are video-led workout sessions where you follow along with an instructor. They suit beginners well because:

• Clear instructions for each technique
• Warm-up and cool-down included
• Various difficulty levels
• Each session takes about 30 minutes

How to start:

1. Go to Train → Guided Trainings
2. Choose a training based on your level and available time
3. Press play and follow along!

Technique Library

The technique library contains individual technique videos organized by Combat System. Use it to:

• Learn specific techniques at your own pace
• Review techniques after a guided training
• Build your own training playlist

Live Trainings

Join real-time training sessions with SAMI instructors. Live trainings allow you to:

• Train with others from around the world
• Get real-time feedback
• Ask questions during the session

Your First Guided Training

We recommend starting with a guided training in your Combat System:

1. Navigate to Guided Trainings
2. Filter by your Combat System at the top
3. Choose a session (each takes about 30 minutes)
4. Follow the on-screen instructions

Tips for Success

• Start slow: Don't worry about perfection in your first sessions
• Stay consistent: Even 10 minutes daily is better than one long session per week
• Use the pause button: Take breaks when needed
• Track your progress: Mark lessons as complete to see your advancement

What's Next?

After your first few sessions, consider:

• Exploring different Combat Systems
• Following a Training Plan for structured progression
