Krav Maga anybody?

[LtStryker]

I was told by my instructor that formal instruction in Krav Maga was rare, does anybody else here use it?

Well, my 29 year old son, since learning Krav Maga, can now kick my azz. Therefore, I no longer mess with him.

What do you mean by "formal?"

 

[LtStryker]

I say formal meaning taught by a qualified instructor or someone who has used it in a combat situation.

I thought that was the norm?? Atleast it is here in Australia.

well, I know a lot of people who claim to use krav maga techniques but learned from watching youtube videos.

I have about two years of formal training. It is an excellent system. Unfortunately now, it is hard to find good places of instruction and when you do they are expensive.

Well I didn't include them.

Either that, or they watched J-Lo in 'Enough'.:sarc:

If you don´t get military KM instruction I recommend you taking up ballet.
It is about as useful in a HtoH situation.
Or you could do one of them dancing martial arts..

[LtStryker]

I have used Krav Maga several times and it seems to me to be an extremely effective form. especially when it becomes a natural thing

I´m militarily trained - G1.
I also practice Shuri-ryu.
