Krav Maga New York : Adult Self Defense and Fitness
Krav Maga is the official Self Defense and Fighting system of the Israeli Army and is renowned worldwide for its effectiveness against real life violent encounters.
Unlike Mixed Martial Arts, Boxing, Wrestling, BJJ, or other forms of rule-based competition, Krav Maga is designed for real world violent situations where rules simply do not apply. One of the most devastating methods for self-defense, it teaches practitioners how best to neutralize attacks and escape unharmed. Krav Maga is characterized by practical, consistent self defense techniques against realistic attacks. Because responses taught follow simple instinctive body mechanics, Krav Maga is easily learned, easily retained, and can be replicated under stress.
Krav Maga New York participants are taught to manage situations where losing would be potentially fatal. Attack and defense maneuvers aim to neutralize the threat and facilitate rapid and safe escape. Students learn combatives such as punches, kicks, knees, elbows, head butts and how to defend against common punches, kicks, chokes, grabs, and bear hugs, as well as weapons such as guns, knives, and sticks. Just as important, the instructors at Krav Maga New York teach students to function during the stress and shock of a sudden, violent encounter where there might be multiple attackers.
