Krav Maga is not fighting in a ring. It is a system designed to prepare you for real threats. Krav Maga has been tested in battle, law enforcement, and civilian situations. You will quickly learn effective self-defense techniques and tactics, because Krav Maga is based upon principles and not techniques.

Based on instinctive movements, so they are easy to learn and easy to remember under stress
Not dependent on size, strength, or special physical ability, so Krav Maga techniques can be used effectively by men and women of all ages.

This system was designed to quickly enable anyone to defend themselves. The Israeli
Defense Force created and has used Krav Maga for over 50 years; the system is now rapidly spreading across the United States and all around the world.
