Krav Maga

[Frogman]

Anyone studied Krav Maga or have an opinion(s) on the Israeli martial art?

[Pacificshore]

I had the opportunity to take one of their gun seminars. I thought it was good. The defense movements were simple and easy to retain. The seminar in itself was pretty intense. That has been my only experience with that art.

I don't have any experience with it but from what I've seen I have a lot of respect for it.

krav maga is good for defensive but moderate for offensive striking moves. weak against BJJ, sambo and other arts that is good in grappling.

[Freestyler]

Krav maga has basic grappling, enough to hold your own on the street unless you come up against a full-on grappler.

 

I don't know if I'd say it's moderate in offensive striking moves, the principle behind krav maga is aggressive attacking for defense, and to keep attacking until your opponent has been dropped.

I know very little about it, any one got any good sites? Especially Techniques?

 

Yours in Aiki.
