Re: Krav Maga article by real IDF instructors
This article is worth printing out and hanging on to, IMNSHO. Here’s an excerpt that sums up why Krav Maga is the best, most practical self-defense system available:
“You can look at an individual who is an accomplished martial artist with years of training behind him, who has unmatched technique, is quick, and dominates the ring or the mat in training and in competition. If this individual doesnít possess the proper mindset for combat, and is suddenly attacked and overtaken by fear and shock, chances are more than probable that he will not survive that encounter. If his mind shuts down, his body will not function and will not even allow him to use any of the great skills he has.
However, you can take an individual who has absolutely no training experience behind him, but possesses the proper survival mindset that will not allow him to lose under any circumstances. If this individual is suddenly attacked, his mind will take over and drive him to fight for his life without stopping, even if he gets hurt, until his attacker is no longer a threat to him. In this situation there will be no proper technique used, due to the individualís lack of experience, thereís even the chance that due to the lack of proper technique the individual himself will get injured by not properly striking his target, however he will almost always end up with better results in surviving the attack than the martial artist in the first example whose mind will shut down during the attack and not help him survive at all.”
Thanks for posting this.
