Re: First Time Jitters
If you came to KMD the first time there would not be a single person who would ridicule you. KM is not about being a bad ass as Krav Math and Yoshi said. It is about physically and mentally preparing yourself to protect yourself and the people you care about.
Try not to get the attitude that you “need to be a bad ass”. Each day you go to the gym to come out better than you went in. That should be your only goal IMO. Do not do Krav to be intimidating, go for yourself.
The reality is that you will get exhausted, beat up, and made to look silly quite often. But you will have people there to help you get up and keep going.
