Krav maga is a hand to hand combat system that originated in Israel and was developed by Imi Lichtenfeld, a professional boxer and wrestler, in the mid-1930's. It is an intense self defence technique with no rules.
The fighting style aims to teach its students how to attack and counter attack in real life situations. For this reason, training can be brutal. Some techniques include blindfolding the trainee and forcing the trainee to exercise to near exhaustion before attacking. Men and women are put through the same drills and manoeuvres.
Krav maga is an intense aerobic and anaerobic sport and a high level of fitness is required. If you would like to learn, enrol at one of these Brisbane based krav maga schools:
