ABOUT
What is Krav Maga?
Krav Maga translated from Hebrew meaning "Contact Combat" is a self-defence system developed for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) that brings together the best of combat styles, such as Muay Thai, Boxing, Jui-Jitsu, Wrestling & Judo trained realistically to deal with real-world scenarios, including weapons (knife, stick, etc). It is highly efficient and aimed at ending confrontations quickly & efficiently where conflict can not be avoided.
