Krav Maga is the hand to hand combat system of the Israeli Military. It’s simple, straight forward method and realistic approach make Krav Maga an exceptional choice for anyone wanting practical self protection skills. The British Krav Maga Association promotes the teaching and training in authentic Israeli Krav Maga. Krav Maga is an extraordinary self protection system from Israel. Krav Maga was designed to enable ordinary men and women to protect themselves in the shortest time possible. It is not a martial art; it is a fighting system focused on protecting yourself or the people you love. Seventy years of training, field use and evolution have resulted in a methodology that’s simple, intuitive and highly effective.
Krav Maga is focused entirely on simplicity and realism. If it’s complicated or hard to learn, it won’t be taught and it won’t work in the real world. Krav Maga is a field-stripped ‘martial art’ with the sole focus on surviving and escaping. There is a strong emphasis on simple, natural movements, as these are are faster to learn and more effective under stress. Krav Maga values a practical and realistic approach to training. It has no sporting or competitive elements. Krav Maga comes from Israel. The system was developed as a simple and effective method of teaching conscripts how to protect themselves should they be captured or loose their weapon. The Krav Maga training proved so successful that it is now used by over 500 military and law enforcement agencies across the world. Krav Maga is the only ‘martial art’ with over 70 years continuous battlefield use and testing. Krav Maga teaches intelligent, socially appropriate methods of avoiding or responding to danger. We train ordinary people to protect themselves within the bounds of law. We don’t encourage violence or aggression. Violence and aggression are not the objective of Krav Maga. Training includes verbal de-escalation drills, body language and an approach to self protection that is inline with UK laws and moral behavior.
Krav Maga was designed for everyone. Not just elite military units. Krav Maga is for teachers, doctors, nurses, mothers, grandfathers and even children. Krav Maga is learned by ordinary people with an interest in fitness or protecting themselves. Krav Maga is learned by normal people – in fact, people just like you.
