Is there really no chance of being allowed into the classes if I'm not 18? I'm 16 at the moment, and large for my age, but is it for legal reasons, or is it just a centre rule?

[somersetkravmaga]

Really sorry - Over 18's only. It will come soon enough ;-)

[somersetkravmaga]

@johnsmith1318 Sorry over 18 only.

[WatertownSurfer]

I'm in. Moving to Bristol in a week for school and I'm really looking forward to getting involved with you guys.

[somersetkravmaga]

Good Man - with CrossFit you are gonna be busy.

Great bunch here though, you'll enjoy it.

Good honest hard work, I like it! You may want to reasses locking your feet (2:04) when you have rear mount as it can leave you open to an ankle lock while you fight for the choke. That said you already had the choke and I'm not trying to troll here! Looks like a good class with good set of students.

[somersetkravmaga]

Thanks for the constructive feedback. Point taken re ankle lock. Krav does not emphasise chokes, usually reversals and eye gouges or striking to make distance and breakaway. The assumption is that there is more than 1 attacker. To be honest it happened and made good footage, In a perfect world he could have gone straight to the eyes and kicked away with legs to return to standing and run off or kicked to the face/head. Well spotted tho.

always happy to bareknuckle with anyone, especially an Israeli hahaha ;O)

K'dah!!

[kravsystems]

Well done Paul, your students are looking good!

[wolfyjournalism]

That's a very good idea ! How's Krav Maga over there ? lots people ?

[somersetkravmaga]

Krav is quite hard to sell over here as the grades are hard to get compared to some styles. Some instructors give BlackBelts out like confetti and then their students come here and get a rude awakening ;-) We have some really great students but as with anything its not to everyones taste.

[wolfyjournalism]

all those GLOVES ! we got one guy from Europe come for his level 5 test. He showed up with those gloves and everyone here in Isreal were like " wTF are those firm hard looking gloves "

u European !

[somersetkravmaga]

They are grappling gloves, allow to grab and hit. We dont use them for hard contact as they offer little protection.

Like you guys we use boxing gloves for hard contact. The video shows people doing light slow fighting. We also train bare knuckle hard contact for conditioning but not punching the head.

Nice to hear from a kravist in Israel !
