  • ... now stop. lol

    

  • careful with knee's in street fight one headbutt while your clinching means your fucked

  • @channelin Kind of hard to headbutt with an elbow in your throat.

  • @channelin shelly, your statement is bizarre, if you hold the clinch too long you can easily get headbutt nobody throws elbows simulatenously whilst throwing knees in a clinch. you WILL get headbutt

  • tough girl :)

  • OMG IS WOMEN  D:

  • thats nothing compared to MUAY THAI

  • @MrSpider732 the knees, elbows, low kicks, and some punching techniques in krav maga where all taken from muay thai's big older brother muay boran :P

  • A muay thai clinch around the neck might be even more effective into preventing the guy from escaping her "massage".

  • @machintruc313 You would think so, however as someone who practices krav and has actually had to use krav, the way we are instructed to grasp our opponent is HIGHLY effective for control. However, I have also been told to feel free to use a muay thai clinch in the even that it becomes the most effective and simple thing to do. However I can speak from experience and say that it's not always easy to get your opponent in a clinch, especially on the street.

  • Feel sorry 4 the fucker that marrys u! Don't like ya dinner!....... sshh shhh sshh ssshh!!!

  • if you are looking to good technicaly training fights, try to find that with women, women have less strength so they attack with their fule power (men dont, to dont harm instructor or opponent), and the fight looks like it should, more realistical !!!

  • OK note to self dont attack this chick.

  • Thats all well and good, but even a novice would hook the knee and sweep leg or topple.

  • @skunkapotamus

    You do that in krav as well. This is just showing the power you can get behind knee strikes - its not meant to ALL that you do.

  • Ahhhh sorry dear ~~! I won't do it again ....!

  • to bad im wearing a cup

  • no groin, no krav maga. hello groin!!

  • just try to rape her !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • WOW that girl has crazy good knees for her size, imagine her doing a muay thai clinch with all that leverage omgg lol

  • I'm a 22 year old woman and I love Krav Maga I broke my ankle doing a high kick and landing wrong but I miss it, she did a great job.

  • good job, great demo!

  • use your left leg too

  • she only uses one leg because it is the stronger of the two, this martial art is for use in real life and death combat situations. if you try to knee someone with your left and you don't hit hard enough or you miss your target, chances are you die. if your sides are even then fair enough mix it up, but one side is enough.

  • @4seraphiel4 Yes and no. (KM Instructor here) She uses one knee in this training not only because it's her strong leg, but she would have to switch sides on her hold to throw a good knee with the other leg.

    Sure, doable, and that is trained, but if she can throw knees like that (provided she's not blocked) then do it.

  • Those are kind of thai boxe knees. Krav maga knees are different eheheeheheh...

    I don't know why they title everything KM.

  • Comment removed

  • Holy Cow! Pretty sure she'd seriously injure a guy w/o pad/cup w/ one of those.

  • Knees are a most under-rated striking method.

    Okay, so they don't have the range that kicks do... but using a knee is usually more accurate (less to go wrong you see), is quicker and you can also pull your attacker down onto it adding to the force of impact.

    Also, for the person using the knees - they're safer that kicks... Ask anyone who's kicked a heavy punch bag and hit toes first....

  • knee strikes and no fucking joke you kick them in the groin then knee them in the fucking face as hard as you can and then you rip there fucking eyes out of there sockets

    my Krav class is very counter terrorist orinted so thats why were so violent i guess. were also taught to take the knife from an attaker and use it on him

  • Guy or girl..?

  • well done, im 4"6 and getting into krav, hope to be this powerful :)

  • she's a teacher, so i think she may know how to handle herself in case the guy got out.

  • The fact that she is a teacher makes it even more serious of a problem. If she is a teacher, she is demonstrating a fundamental Krav Maga technique with basic and unnecessary mistakes. This way of doing the technique leaves you open to a stab if that person has a knife, a body shot (maybe to the kidney), a tackle, a bearhug, or any number of things. And the risk of all that can be done if she had better control of the attackers arm.

  • her elbows are pretty well in, and the fact is, it's just a demonstration. she's just showing the basics, once they master the basics, you get into the little details

  • First, I am not pointing out the finer points of Krav Maga. I understand that this is a basic technique so the fact that this is a basic technique does change anything. Second, my point about the elbow concerns where her hand is relative to HIS elbow. She should keep her right hand closer to where HIS right elbow is rather than his shoulder, otherwise she has uneccesary vulnerability.

  • i understand what you're saying, but from those guys, i've always been instructed to hold the tricep, closer to the shoulder, rather closer to the elbow. if you hold closer to the shoulder, they can create a little more space and you don't have any leverage. the closer you are to the shoulder, you close the gap of any space, and you get a little more control of the arm.

  • Here is the problem, the arm has range of motion and even though there is no space or little space between the bodies, the arm is free to do, like pushing you away, hugging you (the fact that you have no space works both ways here, he can grab and tackle.), or stab you (if he has a knife already in the hand, or within reach). If thats how they are teaching it to you, I suppose there is a good reason for it, but I don't see the leverage you are talking about. Levarage over what?

  • the arm does have a range of motion, but it is very difficut to move it when you're being kneed, and when they're holding it, it's hard to move it(i've tried in a drill. it's not easy).

    I didn't mean leverage. I couldn't think of the word, so I put leverage in instead. Should've put a little more thought into it.

  • When you tried it? Was the impact on the pad hard?

  • it was real hard

  • Sorry for the trick question, but I wanted to make sure that you were holding a pad. Any analysis you've made about how difficult it is to move your arm and the range of motion it has needs to take into account the fact that you were holding that big pad and using it to keep yourself from getting kneed in the face or the gut. Take that pad away, and your arm is free to do a whole lot of things.

  • good point. well, if her fundamentals are out, even 1 knee would be the end of it. 1 knee will knock the air out of you, and you're done.

  • I am not a big fan of clinching and kneeing as a street defence or attack technique, some young punk once tried on a neck clinch with and knee to the face with me, obviously done a bit of Muay Thai, but I just blocked his knee with my own knee and twisted his balls. Needless to say, he released his grip in a hurry. When he reached down with his hands to try and free his family jewels, I elbowed him in the face.

  • Not only does grabbing and kneeing open you up for various counter attacks, (Its not a Muay Thai ring fight.) it also tieds you up too much to the one spot. When you grab someone to gain better control over them, by some measure they also have control over you; especially when the attackers friends are tanking it in all at once.

  • Thats true. But you can say that about any technique, that it opens you up for certain attack. Every technique has its place. This technique (I don't agree with about some of the details of the way the technique is illustrated, but I'll go with it) is done when someone is reaching out for you, say after someone tried to choke you (and you got them to release your throat), or someone tries to punch, you block the attacking arm, and then make a few knees.

  • But it has to be said, the Krav Maga style clinch is not as commited as the Muay Thai neck clinch, it is easier for the Krav Maga practioner to release the attacker and back away than it is for the attacker to free himself and back off. If you can excute fast knee accurate knee strikes, and manage to hit your intended target in one or two attempts, the fight is over.

  • As far as tying you up to one spot, we train to actually move the person around for this technique. We train to put the person as a human shield between ourselves and a second attacker. You wont be able to jump or attack from this technique but you have control of the arm, the body, and can transiton to all sorts of strikes and takes down. And even if you don't transition, you have some goodies to knee. The way this individual illustrates imo is not doing right, however.

  • Using a person as a human shield will only work if a gang attacks only from one direction, this rarely or never happens, more likely they will all try and flank you, using an aggressor as a shield will become a tricky task to say the least, if attacks are pouring in at both flanks, you will be moving closer toward another attacker whether you circle left or right.

  • Then again, if you are able to seize one of them and back yourself into a doorway, the human shield tactic would certainly buy some time.

  • Good points.Its all about time.Time to finish off the person you are kneeing,or time to figure out what to do, or time to get away. And its about very little time,a few seconds,not minutes.Dealing with an entire gang,however,thats really a worse case scenario,especially if they are organized and coordinated.I think in that case you are pretty much SOL.The best you can hope for in a scenario involving a gang is to get away,knocking stuff over to make the chase difficult,and possibly getting help.

  • With gang attacks, I much prefer the way an American football player deals with it; surely you'll have seen some of these top players avoid ten of the opposition tanking it in and try and bring him down. He doesn't let ANYONE grab hold of him; under any cost. (Within the rules of the game.)

  • Every technioque has a counter. Knees have been proven to be very effective in an out of the ring. In Krav/street fights, MMA and yes in the MT ring. Ask Rick Franklin what he thinks about dealing with the knees of Anderson Silva.

  • Some techniques are easier to counter than others. Knee strikes from an inexperienced fighter are easy to defend, very slow and can be seen from a mile away. (I mean easy when an actual fight is begun and both fighters are ready, and not a surprise attack. In a sudden and unexpected attack, almost any technique can put someone down and general doesnt take much skill.)

  • Anderson Silva probably trains his knee strikes 8 hours or more a day every day, together with the rest of his techniques. It is his profession. Knee strikes and elbow strikes are powerful strikes, even in the hands of a beginner, but its short range is its weakness, unless combined with a jump etc. to close the distance. But I like Krav Maga by the way, I have tried a few different types a martial arts and there are only a few I like to cross train in, one of them is Krav Maga.

  • Personally I don't like using knee strikes unless I have no other choice, because it hinders mobility, as knee strikes are best used when you have hold of the opponent for leverage and I don't like getting hit with knees! :D If someone tries to knee me, I work hard on getting him the hell off me, not stand and knee with him. But as I said if you manage to land a good shot in, it will general be the only shot youll need.

  • What systems do you train in yourself? I do JKD, Wing Chun and Krav Maga - it isn't much work as it sounds; I am not a hard core MA enthusiast, they all complement each other very well. (Done Boxing, and Muay Thai in the past. they are hard work; expecially the boxing.)

  • thanx for making my point! I am 5'4 120 lbs. As I said, they learned real quick don't mess with the American scientist. If she is kneeing a pad, imagine what it feels like with no pad! :0 I don't care if this is authorized... it is THE BEST thing a woman can do to protect herself. PERIOD. Learn it. Live it. Use it.I do!

  • she's bad ass. i love it.

  • All I can say..."This has worked very well for me in wartime Guatemala & I had to deal with unscrupulous soldiers. I'd love to see YOUR face after just 1 knee jab... I have seen 6 soldiers faces when I used it on them @ various times! I KNOW I taught them to leave civilian women alone...especially ME.This works & I am not a soldier just an archeologist."

  • And who says Indiana Jones is just a movie!

  • lol

  • You know, I do have a criticism about this individual's technique. Her knees have alot of force, but her left hand, the one that is on the guy's right arm. She is putting it too high. She should be putting that arm closer to the elbow. As is, her knees have alot of poer, but but her left hand won't stop or slow down the guy if he decides to punch her, or try some sort of tackle. If it were closer to the elbow, she would have more effective control of that guy's right arm.

  • now if you had sex with her and she didn't like it is this what you can expect?

  • more likely than not.

  • Mdroudian: If you think the knees are used as an opening attack and properly executed knees wont take the fight out of you, you are so wrong. Try holding pads for those knees and see how they make you feel. Better yet, dont use pads. Those are Thai knees (used in KM) are those are the most dangerous tools in the ring. They are also a good technique on the street. I am currently training in KM and have trained for years in other martial arts as well. I know how painful those knees are.

  • You wouldn't even expect it, Because all she has to do if give you a good punch, and since unskilled people would let there bodies recover from that before they attacked, one knee you'd feel very week, the next 35 she'd give you and your done....

    Try watching a fight between them

    (I've been in a fight with it and I won)

    and see how WELL it works

  • Dude, she is kneeing a pad, working on a specific attack.I'm sure she knows the difference between a drill where you give all you got while you do a series of knees to a person holding a bag,and an actual situation where a knee(or a hammerfist,or a punch,or an eyegouge, or a block, or a palmrstrike, or a kick,etc.)would be called for.And you can bet that she practiced doing those too.The only thing you can possibly get out that clip is what they knee attack would look like when she delivers it.

  • Haha, oops. I posted that comment below on a different vid.

    What I meant to say is that those were some serious knees. I can't even do them that good.

  • Nice! I'm training here in Arizona right now by Manny. Thanks for showing this video! I'll subscribe.
