Re: Why Krav?
Hi! I just started training in Krav Maga. This week I posted my first vlog (video blog) where I talk specifically about why I chose to train in Krav Maga.
It is called My Fighting Stance: a KRAV VLOG
you can find it here.Re: Why Krav?
I wanted to train in a MA that was focused primarily on practical self-defense as opposed to competitions.
Briefly trained in TKD when I was in college, but dropped out because I couldn’t execute the high kicks very well as I’m not that flexible. Also didn’t feel 100% confident in my ability to defend myself in a real-life fight or assault.
I work next to the KMW NTC in L.A., and always wanted to take classes, but couldn’t afford the tuition. Then last year my employer started offering deeply-discounted corporate memberships, and I HAD to go for it.
A year later, I’m only an L2 but still feel like I could defend myself and my loved ones long enough to get to safety if the need ever arose.
And for those of you who think you’re too old to do KM, I’m a 49-year-old heart attack survivor who is able to hold his own with the 20-something boys and girls in his classes. 🙂
To be honest, I was looking for something cool to do and be different from others, maybe playing an instrument, I thought about doing magic, or practicing a sport. A friend of my class showed me a video that completely left me speechless. Krav Maga involve everything that I was looking for, discipline, force, courage, responsibility, respect to others, and an ideology of life that complement greatly to how I want to live my life.
I found the videooo!!

I has been working out and it helped me survive my first class. But my poor shoulders killed me . Anyway ‘Im going back today fro my next class. Its real world, its a good defense, and I plan on taking the soreness till my body adapts. Its a good physical exercise as well. I’m overweight and need it . Finding new muscles I never had and am enjoying this painful feeling.
