Krav Maga - Self Defense for ALL

Krav Maga (KM) covers the basics of self-defense, including strikes with various body parts (hands, elbows, knees, feet) as well as releasing from common grabs and holds (chokes, headlocks). Participants will also learn the basics of ground-safety, such as getting up when pinned down and protecting themselves when falling onto the floor. A unique aspect of KM training is the drills designed for participants to react under stress and develop the necessary aggression to resolve a threatening situation. It will also cover the improvement of their every-day safety, the psychology of aggressors, and legal issues involved in violent confrontation. The goal of Krav Maga is not becoming a fighter throughout trainings but is to teach participants how to walk home safely and protect the ones around them in a simple and efficient way.

All the equipment will be provided during the lesson.
