krav maga is like zumba its become some pointless fad, everyone is an expert now. Simple understanding of human movement kinetics and basic street fighting (defence) understanding is krav maga. I find this hilarious it is the zumba of the martial arts world now lol
@Samwerly It was the Zumba even when it started in the US. The biggest bs about Krav was that in order to push it, they needed a UFC fighter like Bas Rutten to promote it. Ridiculous, also most of those moves are not gonna work against uncooperative oponents, but that would be impossible to sell to Mrs average housewife or the average gym goer.
@jbravo41 it was big before Bas Rutten started talking about it and also why do you think he does talk about it? because its effective. you should really check things out before you try to bad mouth them. you wouldnt look so ignorant if you did
@Clinton51988 I did check it out. More of an intense kickboxing workout to start the class. That was alright and I have no problem with it, as most people in that class were average folks, for whom it was "intense". If you have spent that many years doing Martial Arts as I did, then it was ok, but nothing special. The defense techniques against knives and guns (!) were ridiculous. The instructor got nervous when I began slashing and stabbing movements like a real attacker would do.
@jbravo41 please let me appologize. i failed to ask if you took a commando krav maga class or was it a class taught by a certified krav maga worldwide instructor? i've trained with commando krav and yes i agree with you 100% its crap and not actual real krav maga. but with KM worldwide its a whole different story
IT SEEMS THAT EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE PEOPLE TAKE SOMETHING THAT HAS ALREADY EXISTED FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS AND DECIDE TO RENAME IT ( KRAV MAGA, BRAZILIAN JUJUTSU FOR EXAMPLE) AND CLAIM ITS SOMETHING NEW
if someone put a weapon to you, give them anything they want. the only time you should use this stuff is when it is to protect your or your loved one's life when its in serious danger
Adapted, krav maga defence to offence tactics can be used to attack. The hammer, and cub can easily be used when advancing. It is meant for self defence, but im not one to disarm my would be killer and then run for my fucking life, im gonna stay and fuck him up.
Its great for a street fight, in the ring true krav maga cant be used, because there is no rules when it comes down to it, if you need to hit someone in the balls, do it, if you need to crush someones throat, do it, if you need to completely blind some one, do it, if there is a sharp stick by u, stab them in the face, thats true krav maga. but only nut jobs and military personal do it to kill, the rest of us do it for self defense.
I'm training KM myself but imo this video is so fucking stupid. total overdramatization. watching this it makes you believe that krav maga is only about destroying because that's what people want to see. but it's also about de-escalation and has lots of "soft" ways to deal with certain threats... you know you don't have to poke out someone's eye "just because" he's joking you for example. it's the same with MMA - Krav Maga seems only to advertise it's brutality and that's a sad fact
so ur saying krav maga is something you can become lethal very quick because its based on natural instincts? from what i have learned your natural instincts can get you into trouble in many situations .. if your willing to put in a bit more time and learn the ways of BJJ it will teach your body to react with proper technique knowing your APPONENT'S "natural instinct reactions" and you can become much more efficient and effective. only thing krav maga may be good for is weapon defense
@chadtrevor you can't use bjj against multiple *opponents* like krav teaches you to do. and you aren't having anybody punching you in the face while you are rolling around in bjj. krav teaches many bjj,akido and tae kwon do moves for the ground that allows you to protect your face while on the ground, cause in a real fight if you try to wrestle someone down they are going to hit you in the face, or their friend is gonna smack you one while you're trying.
krav maga was created in Bratislava, Slovakia, during second world war. Imi lived here with his family in the city centre where was huge jewish ghetto and nacis came regularly to beat them, So he learned others how to protect themselves and there were even bigger street fights after this. Only then after the war he imigrated to israel. Check your information about origin. He was born in Budapest, Hungary, but lived in Bratislava, Slovakia.
WTF!?!?! "the fact that my son and daughter can cause great harm is rly great!!" krav maga is about protecting yourself or others not hurting ppl dumb bitch
@chevygearhead454 No Krav Maga was created to kill the enemy, all real moves was for combat, not sport, civilian use is for defense but it was created to kill, not injure like most martial arts, but completely kill the opponent.
Ha, ha, ha. You can't be serious. No, wait I know...it was developed by Moeses to help jews fight the Egyptians who had slaved them. Krav maga was developed in the army the same way many armiew create their own fighting system. There is no need to dramatize
It was not developed by the Israeli military. It was developed by Jewish martial arts expert in the 40's before Israel even existed in order for Jews to defend themselves from the Palestinians who were attacking them after Jews started immigrating illegally in large numbers.

@Runnerrmejor krav maga is made to defend yourself against all possible situations with minimum risk.
most of the times it means "kill your enemy as fast as you can".

@chevygearhead454
here's an idea: How about you go back to 2:55 and quote it exactly.
Wait, I'll do it for you because I doubt your abilities:
"the fact that my daughter can cause great harm and defend herself"
dumb.... dumb. just dumb. Seriously, learn to quote before trying to call someone out.

"The fact that my daughter can cause great harm and DEFEND herself is awesome. And the fact that my son can do the same is really great."
I know your comment is old, but if you are going to quote someone. QUOTE someone and don't just leave out, or ad words she didn't say.

I disagree, the forerunner to Krav Maga was made by Imi Lichtenfield BUT I believe it majorly developed by the IDF.
Just my own opinion.
