Krav Maga: The official self defense and Krav Maga techniques were developed and tested on real battlefields. They were designed to work, for men and women, large or small, young or old. The tactics are proven to quickly eliminate threats and keep you out of harm's way. The moves are simple to perform because they were designed to work powerfully with your body's natural instincts. This makes Krav Maga easier to master, even for a novice. With Krav Maga you will become physically fit and gain the peace of mind that comes from not being afraid. This street oriented self defense system is favored by federal, state and local law enforcement agencies accross the U.S. The Clackamas County Sheriff's Office and the Canby Police Dept. have recently adopted Krav Maga as their official defensive tactics training. Many officers from the Portland Police Bureau and other local agencies also train here at our school in Milwaukie. While experienced fighters and law enforcement officers have consistently praised its highly practical applications, Krav Maga also has a broad appeal because of its simple, no-nonsense approach to safely surviving modern day physical violence, including attacks with guns and knives, and multiple attackers. Designed by a team of top defensive tactics instructors and fitness experts at Krav Maga Worldwide, our program places a heavy emphasis on conditioning. All our classes use modern sports training techniques to build muscle and burn fat. Krav Maga is self defense for the modern world. Krav Maga trains you to deal with real life situations using battle-tested techniques, tactics and strategies that can be learned and quickly mastered by anyone, regardless of age, size, strength, or previous training. Most students report that their confidence in their ability to protect themselves rapidly improves in a matter of months, not years, as is typical for those training in many traditional martial arts. "Unlike most martial arts, Krav Maga is extremely effective for the street. "Hi Mark, I just wanted to let you know the training I received while living in Portland and the rape defense seminars saved my mom and my life. My mom and I were in Bangkok, two blocks from the American embassy and got into a metered taxi to take us home after the night bazaar. We were driven out of Bangkok into the country at 1 AM. The taxi stopped in the middle of a dark field and we were beaten and left there in the middle of nowhere. I am fine, I just have 6 stitches in the back of my head where the cab driver hit me with a tire iron. My mom is bruised on her back where he hit her. I kicked him in the throat, pinned him to the roof of the taxi with my foot. As the fight moved outside the car, he attacked me from the rear, hitting me in the head with the tire iron. I was bent over and realized I was in a familiar position to strike him in the groin. I attacked, then grabbed the tire iron, elbowed him in the throat and disarmed the tire iron from him. |
