Krav Maga is a military self-defence and fighting system developed for the Israel Defense Forces
Krav Maga, meaning contact combat, is a practical martial art system focused on self-defense.
It was originally created by Imi Lichtenfeld for the Israeli Defense Force for military applications. The art is intended to be ever changing, and incorporates elements from Boxing, Savate, Muay Thai, Wing Chun, Judo, Jiu-Jitsu, and Wrestling. It has since been adapted to civilian and police applications, and most Krav Maga seen in the wild today will be of the civilian variety.
Due to it's military roots, Krav Maga is designed so it can be learned quickly and by anyone. Many techniques are built off of natural reactions, like raising our hands to protect ourselves. Defensive techniques, like defending against a choke, will reuse motions, such as plucking, in other defenses making techniques more adaptable and less confusing. It also avoids complex high level techniques, like throws, in favor of striking.
