Krav Maga

For those of you interested, I highly recommend Krav Maga.

What is Krav Maga? Well its a self defense and individual combat system developed and used by the Israel Defense Forces. Please note that KM is NOT a martial art form but a self-defense/combat system. KM takes from many martial arts and stresses realistic combat situation during training (even your first day); albeit in a safer environment than you'll likely encounter in the streets.

I first learned about it during a business trip to Israel last year and have been studying/training now for the past six months. I am hooked!

I am currently training at a Krav Maga Center near Ft Belvoir, VA. Their website is at the following link: http://www.kravmaganova.com/index.htm. Check it out! The instructors are great as is the work out.

On 31 May, I am taking the level 2 test.

Wish me luck.
