Krav Maga defenses address a wide variety of aggressive acts, such as punches, kicks, chokes, bear-hugs, headlocks, grabs, as well as defenses against multiply assailants and assailants armed with a firearm, knife or sticks.

Krav Maga is a defense that proves most effective against any type of assault. Krav Maga applies its practical, no holds barred approach to a complete street fighting system. Learning simple techniques to end a fight as quickly as possible.
