Thinking about Krav Maga- Here's the problem/question

[Foz-man]

So I've been doing Brazilian Ju-Jitsu for a while and don't particularily like the training. Too much rolling on the floor with other guys, seriously, it gets gross.

I've been looking at Krav videos, could someone point me to a good one? Just about all of them are demonstrations, not real fights or real matches. Are any of someone in a street fight using good Krav Maga, or a match/bout using Krav Maga?

All the ones I see use the one thing that I hate, the paralyzed other hand. Seriously, look at all the videos which are basically coordinated demonstrations, where the attacker is being repelled by the KM practicioner, but they are not using their second hand at all. It just flops by their side. This is a horrible thing to do in a demonstration. It's not realistic unless your attacker is using everything at their disposale, the same way you are using yours.

Does Krav Maga spar? And if so, are there any good videos showing it or a street fight using KM? Not demonstrations like this one, which is cool until you notice the attacker not using their other hand:

I think the Mastering Krav Maga DVDs by David Kahn of the IKMA are as good as it gets. Good demonstration that considers how the attacker may continue an attack.

Keep in mind that KM is not sport fighting like BJJ. We are trained to strike potentially lethal points on the body, therefore, great care has to be taken in training. In the videos that you are watching consider that the instructors are demonstrating specific techniques and there has to be some amount of choreography between teacher and pupil. You will also notice when learning a new technique it will seem impossible with a partner who attacks badly.
As far as sparring.....lots of people do but it is more like kickboxing since a lot of our favorite targets and techniques are off limits.

You are in luck because you are near 4 locations that are affiliated with KMWW. You should just go visit a school and watch a class, try a class and talk to the instructors.

I think that is the program run by a very talented Kravist (Oneness) who is also one of the main instructors of the Bas Rutten Fight Club.
