Krav Maga really rocks!. Review on Krav Maga

Well, I am a student of Mr. Vcky Kapoor, Director and chief instructor of Krav Maga in delhi. Trainng with him is simply out of this world. I also like the website as it contain lot of cool stuff like freeblie wallpapers and huge photo gallery. My my I bet they do a lot of stuff inside that studio.:)

I truly feel self defense training is a important factor for todays men and women. not only it help you deal with anything bad out there in the streets but your whole attitude towards life changes. You start to work on on solutions the minute your hit on a problem.

Recently, I attended instructor course and the teaching quality of the course was quite intensive and educative. Mr. Avi Moyal our israeli instructor took many subjects like ground fighting, VIP protections, combat tactics and ofcourse self defense classes.

Krav Maga Self Defense

(Hebrew??: "contact combat") is a self-defense and military hand-to-hand combat system developed in Israel, which assumes no quarter, and emphasizes maximum threat neutralization in a "real life" context.

Krav Maga Training: Introduction

We emphasize two paradoxical training rules: there are no rules in a fight and one must not injure oneself or one's partner when training. Training is an intense mixed aerobic and anaerobic workout, relying heavily on protective pads in order to experience both delivery and defense of strikes at full force. Senior classes will incorporate "Strike and Fight, " which consists of full-contact sparring with protection gears, face masks etc intended to familiarize the practitioner with the stresses of a violent situation.

Training may employ a speaker system blasting loud music, or fog machine, meant to train the practitioner to ignore peripheral distractions and focus on causing as much damage as possible. Training might also contain ways to deal with situations which could end in fights. Physical and verbal methods to avoid violence whenever possible will be taught.

A typical Krav Maga session is about an hour long and mixes conditioning with self-defense teaching. As levels increase, we will focus a little more on complicated and less common types of attacks, such as knife attacks, hostage situations and defense under extreme duress.

Survival Stress Management: Krav Maga Dynamic Simulation Training

During or after a violent attack everyone experiences SSR(Survival Stress Reaction). It relates to combat is; "a state where a "perceived" high threat stimulus automatically engages the parasympathetic nervous system" The parasympathetic nervous system is an autonomic response process which, when activated, one has little control of. Because when activated, SSR has both a psychological and physiological effect to the body which could effect one's perception of threat in a negative way.

# Increased Heart Rate: finger dexterity, eye hand co-ordination, multi tasking becomes difficult

# Effects To Visual System: pupils will dilate and flatten, tunnel vision, visual tracking becomes difficult, difficult to focus on close objects etc

# Effects To The Auditory System: brain that hears, shuts down

# Effects To The Brain: difficulty remembering what took place or what they did during a confrontation

Krav Maga through its system of training reduced the effects of SSR thus in any real-life situation ro voilent attach, the practitioner is better prepared since he/she knows has trained in Krav Maga Survival Stress Management.

# Experience increases and builds confidence

# With more and more realistic training experience one can minimize the effects of SSR

# Control and regulate breathing in order to excel in performance

# Stimulates muscle memory to react faster and effectively.

Krav Maga Techniques: Ever-evolving hybrid system

Krav Maga shares many techniques with other martial arts, such as boxing, savate and muay thai, jujutsu, judo and wrestling but, there are no predefined sequences of moves or choreographed styles; instead Krav Maga emphasizes rapid learning and the retzev("continuous combat motion"), with the sole imperative being effectiveness, for either attack or defensive situations.
