Do many schools offer private Krav lessons (I think I saw one site that did, but I can’t remember where)? Or is the group setting preferred for Krav?

Really? Cool!
I ask more out of curiosity than anything, but that’s not to say I wouldn’t consider it in the future.
I’d love to get the girls in my family in some lessons.

Step-child now goes to krav with me. 8)Over in Lincolnwood I know George (instructor) offers private lessons. They are a half hour, you would never make it through a one on one lesson if it were an hour.
Private lessons are good. Small classes are good. Large classes are good.
It all depends on what you’re looking for. I tell newer students to try to hit a combo of small and larger classes, b/c the energy is ALWAYS higher when the room is full, but you get less individual attention and correction/instruction.
If you don’t have a problem keeping your own energy up when you’re training, private lessons are good. I do caution people away from private lessons when their reasoning has to do with not wanting to push themselves hard during classes (strange, I know, but I’ve heard it before)
Dkst, thanks for the info. My cousin wants to take lessons, but he is not able to commit to a regular schedule. He is closer to your location than mine, so that might work out for him.
Jeff, I dig the energy of a big class. Though I’m ready to croak, I usually end up having a pretty good time.
I know private Yoga sessions (Yoga is my only frame of reference for stuff like this) can be much more effective technically. You miss out on the group thing, which is a huge part of Yoga’s charm, but the individual attention can go a long way in helping you improve. I wondered if Krav was the same way.
Yes, it is the same way. So if you already have the mindset of going 100%, private lessons will be more effective for you than for someone else who is doing so to get away from the intensity of class.
Speaking of yoga, a friend of mine had a funny thing about yoga on his blog. It’s most of the way down, but Lor, you would appreciate this…
