Re: 3 vs 1 … Like your odds?
I agree the whole thing could have been avoided. I have a question, though, about de-escalating the whole thing verbally before it comes to an actual fight. Where can you go to get guidelines or examples of how to do this? Are there any training videos available? Seems to me, talking your way out of it is a technique in and of itself, and probably one that will keep you the most out of trouble.
Re: Why Krav?
For many of the reasons already posted. I’ve long been interested in martial arts but life gets in the way and I end up not training. I’ve tried judo, karate, kung fu and boxing and never stuck with any beyond a few years. I’m 40 and would like to actually become proficient in something.
Also, I want the spillover confidence that comes from training in something physicial. In my short krav maga career, I’ve found that work or other problems seem less serious after spending time trying to escape from a choke.
It’s inspiring to see so many older students on this board. At 40, I often feel like the oldest person in my school.
