What is Krav Maga?

Founder Imi Lichtenfeld

The word Krav-Maga is Hebrew for contact-combat. It is the official self defense system of the Israeli Defense Forces and was founded by Imi Lichtenfeld. Originally it was taught to the military and law enforcement agencies but is now being taught and adapted for civilian use.

Its design is based on threat neutralization, simultaneous offense and defense maneuvers and extreme aggression. It is very effective, non-competitive and uses the natural movements of the body. It is easy to learn and does not require complicated routines or katas that are difficult and time consuming to learn.

Unlike Karate, kickboxing, Judo, MMA and other forms of Martial Arts, Krav Maga is not a sport! Its primary focus is self defense and self defense ONLY. It is a fighting system that is designed to be used............. "When there is no other way

 

out".
