Krav Maga - Close Quarter Combat Israeli style

Krav Maga is Hebrew for close quarter combat, fighting for survival up close and personal.

The nation of Israel was born in a struggle.

Our patriarch Jacob wrestled with an angel in the form of a man. When he emerged victorious the angel changed Jacob's name to Israel, meaning "One who has wrestled with God", and said, "You have wrestled with God and with man and have prevailed." Ever since then the nation of Israel has been fighting for survival The ancient people of Israel were a nation of warriors. The Patriarch Abraham trained all the members of his household in combat. The sons of Jacob were fierce warriors and masters of the sword. The judges of Israel combined combat prowess with great wisdom. Ehud Ben Gerah the Judge was a master of the dagger. Deborah was a master of strategy. 

Modern Krav Maga is a continuation of this ancient struggle.

Jerusalem, the Western Wall, a remnant of our ancient temple. 

The ancient Hebrew warrior has risen again. From the Warsaw Ghetto Revolt to the partisans in the forests of Poland to the Israel Defense Forces Jews have followed the words of Ze'ev Vladimir Jabotinsky and have taken up arms to defend themselves.

Krav Maga is the unarmed portion of combat: Defense against guns, knives, and hand to hand combat. It's a simple, user-friendly style designed to meet the needs of modern self defense. Unlike traditional styles it is constantly being revised and updated based on lessons learned on the battlefield, urban crime, and in combating terrorists.
