Re: Why Krav?
quote MDeaneUSCG:
KM, at least in the base levels, is designed to give 99% of people the capability to defend themselves from 99% of the attacks they are likely to face. As my instructor put it “Would a BJJ expert be able to protect his groin while keeping you in guard? Maybe, but what are the chances you’ll be assaulted by a BJJ expert? More likely, the guy assaulting you will be some moron that watched a little too much UFC”.
So, in that regard, KM does exactly what it sets out to do, which is give real people a real defensive system, against real attacks. KM isn’t trying to win an episode of Ultimate Warrior, and be the fighting system to beat all fighting systems.
Also, I don’t know about your gym, but we have side courses that are tailored toward increasing your ground fighting abilities, with it’s own curriculum. This ability to cross train, and to incorporate other styles into KM where it works, is what makes the system effective in an ever-evolving world of self defense.
nicely put
