Re: Why Krav?
After my encounter with an intruder in my home with my kids and I asleep (long story on another thread), my counselor invited me to a seminar, and I was hooked. I love it. And, believe me, I hate exercise, and traditional exercise bores me, but this has me jogging and doing push-ups, and now I actually enjoy it. I have a little fighter in me, and KM helps get my stress out. It’s real. Size doesn’t matter. The techniques matter. I’m still in a six-week women’s only course, but I’m signing up the minute the six weeks is over. I will never be a “victim” again.
Re: Welcome -cmon Introduce Yourself
Hello from Charleston, SC! You can tell I’m new here b/c I started a new thread to say hi before I realized there was already one. Sorry about that.
A little about myself – I’m an almost 40 (in Nov.) year old, stay-at-home mom of two boys, four and two. In June our home was broken into while we were napping. I thought the noise I heard was my son getting up early, so when I opened the bedroom door, I confronted a man in the hall getting ready to enter their room. Fortunately my words (and they weren’t pretty) did enough to get him to run out, and I chased him until he jumped the fence and I couldn’t see him anymore. That got me thinking all the what if’s. I was recommended to Krav, took a seminar they offered one Saturday, and was hooked. I’m going into week 4 of a women’s only course, and then hubby and I are going to sign up together.
My friends think I’m a little crazy b/c this is rough stuff, but the empowerment I feel is amazing, and I love the workout. Routine exercises bore me. In fact, going into my first class I hadn’t exercised in years, and I made it though w/out throwing up! I finally found something that gets my attention. Guess I have a little “meanness” in me! I’ll never be a victim again. I just wish I could get some more friends on board, those fair Southern belles 🙂
Thanks for this forum. I’m looking forward to talking with everyone.
