Introduction To Krav Maga Seminars
The best way to initially experience Krav Maga training is in one of our 60 minute introductory seminars. In these seminars you will be taught some of the underlying concepts and
heuristics upon which Krav Maga techniques and solutions are based, take part in some of the drills we use to help develop fighting skills and abilities, and practice a variety
of solutions to both unarmed and armed threats and attacks. You will also be taught how to work some different training pads (focus mitts, kick shields etc.) that are used in regular
classes, in a manner that is safe for both yourself and those you will be working with. Despite Krav Maga training sometimes being comprised of high stress drills that replicate some
of the facets of real-life violence, the approach stresses safety in all training methods. The upcoming dates of the next Introduction to Israeli Krav Maga seminars can be found

About Our Introductory Krav Maga Seminars
Krav Maga takes a very different approach to dealing with real-life violence, than other martial arts and fighting systems, including MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), and has no sporting component
to it. Whereas most martial arts and self-defense systems, are defined by the techniques they teach, Krav Maga is not. Because threats and violence can change e.g., In recent years some street robbers
have taken to actually piercing your flesh with a knife. Krav Maga has to be able to adapt its solutions to dealing with these changes in violent offending, without compromising its principles
or radically changing its approach. Many people think (and sometimes teach) Krav Maga, as being a system that simply takes the “best” self-defense techniques around then presents the
collection as a whole, however this is not the case. Krav Maga takes the approach of teaching its practitioners how to interpret a threat or attack, using a selection of certain concepts,
fighting ideas, and principles. This allows Krav Maga practitioners to be able to effectively respond to threats and attacks they may never have trained/experienced before. In this
introductory seminar you will be introduced to this method and approach.
The seminar is structured in a similar way to our regular classes, however each segment is broken down and explained, so that it is less fast-paced than a regular Krav Maga class. This means
that when you start attending regular classes you will understand what is being trained and accomplished in each part, rather than trying to work out why training is being conducted in this way.
The other benefit to having everybody take an introductory seminar is that every person in a class knows what they should be doing and why. This means you will never experience a complete
beginner in one of our regular Krav Maga classes, allowing you to focus solely on your own training.
For those who find that none of our introductory Krav Maga classes fit into their schedules we can offer this class as a private/small group training session. Whilst we recommend prospective students taking our regular introductory classes, we recognize that this isn’t always practical and so we offer this as a means to prepare students for regular group Krav Maga classes.
