I trained in Krav in Las Vegas with the famous Donavin Britt, we were taught to avoid fighting at all cost, if you can’t do that, then end the fight as quickly as possible. A lot of guys studying different disciplines don’t consider Krav a martial art and I would agree, there’s nothing “artistic” about it, it’s brutally effective.
I consider it a martial art! But you are right it’s brutally effective I’ve only had to use it twice. I was scared but my adrenaline and this came 2nd nature and with out surprise I succeeded.
Just started taking Krav Maga training and these videos supplement what I learn. I watch them before and after each session to get more perspective. Great videos.
@@m3cha131 Stop an opponent, that's why it's called a self-defense style, not a martial art. There is no below the belt in Krav, ears, eyes, groin, breaking fingers, everything is allowed. If you want to fight, do MMA.
Krav Maga is self defense. It’s not meant to be offensive but rather defensive. You can cross train with MMA or other martial arts then you can be more offensive but Krav Maga is anything goes, low shots, grappling, combatives, etc. Techniques are meant to be quick and simple to more complex and dangerous. Not about points but doing what you have to do to get home.
Fantastic explanations. Really appreciate the way you break down the moves with simple, clear instructions. You're a great instructor.. Didn't think to protect my jaw when striking so thank you. I just singed up at a local gym in town but I like the additional teaching/learning so going to be signing up for your university. The private lessons are 100$ an hour and this is much more affordable and convenient.
@@Ishan_Singla I meant that fitting in a video whenever might mesh better with irregular schedules, in a "money isn't the only currency" sort of way. Second language, so I'm not entirely sure whether i'm just failing to communicate or making a distinction without a difference.
Coming from a boxing background, I was sceptical about this technique. However, logically it makes sense. You can hit a wall harder with your palm than your fist (with no broken knuckles), Less chance of deflection, will catch your attacker off guard and (in my opinion) more accurate. I like to mix up conventional striking with palm striking depending on the situation. Non the less, a very good skill to have in your defence armoury.
Palm strike also lines up the bones of the forearm, requires less conscious effort to keep from injuring your wrist. Done boxing and martial arts and it makes good sense to palm strike. Especially on the street with no gloves or mouth pieces, a "fight bite" is a HUGE injury. Teeth especially if they break are fekkin sharp and loaded with bacteria. Saw an investigation show where the killer was caught because he had a fight bite from his victim and nearly lost his hand....justice served by bacteria
Good, stay sharp. I trained for four years. But haven’t practiced since 2018. I still remember the basics, strikes and kicks. But I feel quite rusty. And I honestly don’t feel as confident as I use to. So don’t lose that momentum.
I'm 11 and I have my first class tomorrow I'm super exited Update:I never realized how many replies I got to this comment I made this when I was 11 and didnt even know anyone saw it I'm 13 now and havent done it in a year due to covid because of covid we couldnt do it and they were still charging my dad and its expensive especially to not even get anything out of it. I currently do soccer and am in a program in young marines and soon to be in civil air patrol. Thank u for all the support in my replies tho if I saw all those when I was 11 I probably would have put even more effort into it. I might start doing some sort of martial arts again if I do I'll go back to doing krav or maybe takewondo Update once again: I'm no longer in Young Marines but I'm in CAP. And I'm might be joining taekwondo cuz like 3 of my friends in cap also do taekwondo (one just got his blackbelt) so I might be in that soon
Then you have no clue about real Krav Maga my friend, as what you see here, doesn’t even come close. And as a starter system to what? Please don’t say MMA because real Krav is for the battlefield, or in life or death situations…..it isn’t for the ring. And you say for women or older people? You seriously don’t know what you’re talking about do you lol. Do some research on real Krav Maga as devised for the IDF Israeli Defence Force’s special forces. And you say for old people……🤦🏻♂️😂. Real Krav, we don’t use gloves or matts, or fake weapons and we don’t touch spar. People get hurt whilst studying krav. Whatever this guy is teaching, is not what I’ve spent 20 years of my life, 1/2 of that in the military, teaching to soldiers, prison officers and police. Do some real research my friend, it’s sounds as if you’d find it fascinating
I am trying to learn kraw maga at home cause I have my exam next year so can't go somewhere else and I think this video is really good.Also I think these punching techniques are really same to the boxing techniques. Thank you ❤️
I've had my jaw broken from a punch and it stunned me but it just felt like my teeth got knocked out. I think shots to the temple that just "glance off" 11:06 are actually much more effective (or dangerous) in the street. bc while I wasnt knocked out I saw 2 or 3 other people who were.
i think the idea is that your shoulder will take the force of the strike, leaving your forehead with a gentle hit to deal with which is much more preferable than being smacked in the jaw in my opinion
This is awesome. I would love to see a lot more videos of Krav Maga for each belt from Yellow to Black belt. Plus self-defense, weapons, etc. I did see some videos for Orange belt which is cool.
I also used to hold my stance duck footed like jeet kune do, but I like the stance. It reminds me the book of five rings, "make your combat stance, your every day stance." So if you are walking, you are in krav maga stance.
It's crazy to see basics of Krav Maga are what I without having knowledge of this had incorporated because of experience. This demonstrates the effectiveness of this MA.
Love the nitpicky back-and-forth in the comments over whether or not Krav Maga is a "martial art." Every fighting technique, from basic hand-to-hand combat to the application of advanced weaponry to strike at an enemy is technically a martial art, in that it is a methodology applicable to the waging of war/conflict. Sun Tzu didn't title his definitive work "The Activity of War". The argument that Krav Maga isn't a martial art is based on the fundamental misunderstanding of the word "art" in this application. It comes from folks who are so focused on the wrong definition of that word (it has more than one, you know), and who are so obsessed with things like styles, belts, etc., that they've almost completely forgotten the operative word in the phrase - "martial."
Michael it would be nice if you show the movements for more times instead to ask the lady to do it. I want to see you doing the movement because you do it right.
2 stances in krav neutral or passive stance and your fighting stance , can’t forget to keep your back foot off the ground just a smidge with weight on the ball of the foot to allow for bursting. Good video
This definitely was payback for my school bully he never comes to me again for the risk of his face bleeding now I'm known as the guy to stay away from at school - Thanks!
It's been a long time since I studied any form fighting & defense. About 20 years ago I was in the CORPS and was trained in L.I.N.E. which contains an element of Krav Magah used by Security Forces, MSG, FAST and a number of other specialized units. I thought I lost my touch until my Christmas party. Drunk Marines are the ones you can find playing with dangerous toys at unsupervised parties. My friend (having tought him some stuff) stabbed me. I then got a little disgruntled, to teach a firearm retention and disarming technique I had learned (if you read this, DO NOT attempt any of this as it is STUPID AND LIFE THREATENING. LEAVE IT TO PROFESSIONAL IDIOTS, we get paid to do DUMB stuff.) he emptied and showed clear his sidearm. I asked to point it, hold to me, whatever. He asked if, "is this one those, swing at me with that hand". I replied, "no, this is going friggin hurt". He his weapon approximately a foot and a half away. I took his weapon and put him down hard in three seconds without even thinking about it. I realized then with shock awe, that I still had it. Unbeknownst to me, forget to the mag out when he showed me the emptied chamber. What seemingly was supposed to be good training was in fact life threatening. So, in closing, it's a video game. These types of training should be taken lightly and stupidly can(will) get you killed. Use it cautiously and attention to detail. Your course, having just a glimpse, reminded me how great teachers like yourself, humble me. I thank you, and no more Marine insane parties ( we learned our lesson.
I took a few krav maga classes about 15 years ago.before it became a thing.6 months to be precise.i can always remember the instructor saying there is no belt system in krav maga.just come in ordinary clothes because it needs to be as realistic as possible.
I've fought a guy who used palm stikes yea he hit me a lot but it didnt hurt my fist on the other hand crushed his nose broke his jaw and fractured his cheekbone. I'm not worried about how my hands are gonna feel tomorrow. Proper punching technique will prevent you from hurting your wrists. If you have to bust a knuckle to one and done a mf to keep him from hurting you or anyone else I say its worth it
I agree, I'm skeptical about open hands in general. Every good martial art (including boxing) teaches to always keep fists closed the whole fight, to become instinctual and always ready if an opening for a punch opens up. 1. Fingers are EXTREMELY easy to catch/snag/break. 2. Learning how to align punches right is monumentally necessary to keep from easily spraining wrists if you ever DO use a fist. 3. Yes, a palm cushions the blow. Open hand muscle memory/training kinda comes off as a recipe for disaster and getting used to bad habits
Women really shouldn't fight closed fisted. Unless we are trained well, we do more than scuff our knuckles. We break entire hands. For 20 years, I was fighting almost daily. Mostly with men. I've done some damage and have never used a closed fist. I used a lot of elbows and knees though. Lol
Bruce Lee once said that he isn't afraid of a person knowing and practicing many strikes many times, but of the person who practices one strike a hundred times or more. I have been in the entertainment industry for many years (30 years) and I have seen a lot of bar fights and street fights. The only thing that works all the time is speed, accuracy of strike and the power to knock someone to the ground. In grappling fights short but hard hits are best along with akido style grips and moves. In a bar fight one has just a few seconds to act and bar fights are way more messy than street fights. Bar fights people bust bottles, throw glasses and bar stools. Bar fights also are where the on lookers join in to fight. The brawl is insane multiple fighters entering the fight at different times and from different angles, plus the dim to bright lights cast shadows. Bouncers in Bars are typically great fighters and their job is to end a fight. When I ask the bouncers about their style of fighting they typically say mixed martial art. The baddest bouncer I ever had was a guy named Vance. He was ugly, about 6 feet tall, completely bald, athletic body type and very agile. He would be lightning fast and loved to smile at the opponent before he broke bones. I had to fire him and now he works overseas doing security stuff.... This bad ass was only 22 years old. Music, drinks and girls make men do stupid shit.
Lol..aikido. You're probably thinking ninjitsu. Aikido is IRL the worst style you'd ever come across for practical/realistic techniques. In addition, its principles are not to hurt the opponent...worst philosophy from the get go for a bar/street fight
I'm a 14 year old girl who is really into bushcraft and self defense, just because a lot of times as a woman, I feel vulnerable, especially being so young, so this will help me, and I'm not going to be the one you'd want to mess with in the end, lmao
There really isn't an effective defense against a well trained individual in Krav M. It's designed so that even defensive actions are Naturally transformed into an offensive attack. Awesome Art.
@@daprimedabg4539 yeah unless you haven't trained to kick, then you can screw yourself with kicks I mean to slow you can get grabbed then knee broken, leg kicked out from under, opened up for strikes. To sum up if not experienced kicks suck
norm yes thats what would happen. personally id use a knife edge block with the side of my foot from chinese kenpo. but in a life or death situation u will do whatever u have to do to get out of a fight. rather it be a palm block. or in my case a foot block. all martal arts have there good moves and bad.
Great instruction. Where are you (palm striking)? I suggest the Forehead (between the eyes) is the best 1st distraction then proceed from there. Thank you for sharing your video.
@Jonathon Fassold he might not have any but I’m certain this dude teaching you the palm strike does, and also Bruce Lee founded an entire martial arts on his own and it’s still taught today.
Look in the mirror at how your arms hang Always a slight kink That’s how your legs should be Always ready to move Boxing is all about footwork - just watch usyk Make your stance natural like your arms and you will always be quick to move 👍🏽
The orthodox boxing stance with the back foot at an angle seems a lot better than all 10 toes facing forward for power, balance, and movement. Just my opinion. I do like the idea of using open hands for self defense to avoid injury.
@@cassieramirez9938 Krav Maga isn’t martial art Krav Maga is the usage of other martial arts. Striking comes from muey Thai also you can’t even kick in Krav Maga you’re half assing it
5:20 i wouldn't recommend hopping, at least if you are facing against opponent that knows what he's doing, as if he catches you in the right moment he can sweep away your leg much easier, although crossing your feet is incorrect on which i agree, as it doesn't provide much stability, I have few more nit picks but she's just white belt so I'm forgiving her on this one ^^

The brawl is insane multiple fighters entering the fight at different times and from different angles, plus the dim to bright lights cast shadows. Bouncers in Bars are typically great fighters and their job is to end a fight. When I ask the bouncers about their style of fighting they typically say mixed martial art. The baddest bouncer I ever had was a guy named Vance. He was ugly, about 6 feet tall, completely bald, athletic body type and very agile. He would be lightning fast and loved to smile at the opponent before he broke bones. I had to fire him and now he works overseas doing security stuff.... This bad ass was only 22 years old. Music, drinks and girls make men do stupid shit.
Lol..aikido.
You're probably thinking ninjitsu.
Aikido is IRL the worst style you'd ever come across for practical/realistic techniques. In addition, its principles are not to hurt the opponent...worst philosophy from the get go for a bar/street fight
This is awesome, I love Krav Maga…a martial art originating from Israel means a lot more being a Christian!
yuck
I'm a 14 year old girl who is really into bushcraft and self defense, just because a lot of times as a woman, I feel vulnerable, especially being so young, so this will help me, and I'm not going to be the one you'd want to mess with in the end, lmao
I can see a patriot in the making here :)
Krav is well spoke of. Where it sounds as there's civilian style, then combat style. I wush I could had done Krav.
You still can! globalmartialarts.university/course/kravmaga/ :)
"she might get an accidental eye gouge... which is fine"
yep, definitely krav maga 😂
I want to learn as many martial arts as possible by the time I’m 25 so I’m trying to find which ones I like most
There really isn't an effective defense against a well trained individual in Krav M. It's designed so that even defensive actions are Naturally transformed into an offensive attack. Awesome Art.
in my experience blocking strikes especially kicks with open hands is an easy way to break or dislocate a finger
unholyXromance you can also catch a kick which is easier than a fist

@@daprimedabg4539 yeah unless you haven't trained to kick, then you can screw yourself with kicks I mean to slow you can get grabbed then knee broken, leg kicked out from under, opened up for strikes. To sum up if not experienced kicks suck
norm yes thats what would happen. personally id use a knife edge block with the side of my foot from chinese kenpo. but in a life or death situation u will do whatever u have to do to get out of a fight. rather it be a palm block. or in my case a foot block. all martal arts have there good moves and bad.
These are combatives not defenses. The palm strike is used as an attack so we don't break our knuckles on hard face bones.
Great pace
I'm not a big believer in palm strikes. That would just piss somebody off. KM also uses elbo strikes. Those can be very effective.
Great instruction. Where are you (palm striking)? I suggest the Forehead (between the eyes) is the best 1st distraction then proceed from there. Thank you for sharing your video.
well palm stries are pretty effective than fists in some situations
Yeah but they have ab three to four inches less reach which can def be a detriment
No broken knuckles!
Thank you this actually help me to fight the people who bully me at school
🤨
It was really helpful
I think krav maga might be another decent martial art for me to learn based off this vid and what ive seen
Bruh this finna be so easy since ive done so many other martial arts im just a natural, first try i look like a pro already
It's a highly effective defense system, and we have a fantastic program: globalmartialarts.university/course/kravmaga/
All of these movements have always come very naturally too me without really trying
Never use your fist in a street fight.
Bruce lee
@Jonathon Fassold he was an martial artist turned actor and it would be impossible to see ufc and other mma if that guy didnt invent jeet kund do
@Jonathon Fassold he might not have any but I’m certain this dude teaching you the palm strike does, and also Bruce Lee founded an entire martial arts on his own and it’s still taught today.
@@sudhasainath2876 mma existed as valetudo before Bruce Lee. It also existed in ancient Greece as pankration. Don't make up bs
@@canismajoris6733 of course there were many but the modern mma is inspired by lee..
Can someone tell me hiw accurate these vids are compared to irl exp since ion have enoguh money to pay trainings and i want to learn from here
Well explained! Thanks for sharing !
I
Glad you liked it!
These techniques are very helpful
Thanks for all that good stuff.
Awesome skill
Thank you 🤗
When a pad holder tries to hit my hands out of the air, or ‘meet me half way’ it’s time to get a new pad holder!
I really enjoy the video. I learn somting
Look in the mirror at how your arms hang
Always a slight kink
That’s how your legs should be
Always ready to move
Boxing is all about footwork - just watch usyk
Make your stance natural like your arms and you will always be quick to move 👍🏽
ok let’s do this i’ll do my best
I just subscribed to your channel since the video was so useful. Where do you teach in person classes? I live in Raleigh Durham, NC on the east coast.
Hi, the GMAU does not teach in-person classes. All of our martial arts programs are online at: globalmartialarts.university/ :)
@@GlobalMartialArtsUniversity Thanks for the reply :).
Great instructions!
I have mastered the Palm Strike
The orthodox boxing stance with the back foot at an angle seems a lot better than all 10 toes facing forward for power, balance, and movement. Just my opinion. I do like the idea of using open hands for self defense to avoid injury.
The follow-up to combatives is escaping, which is easier done with the foot facing the way it will when you run.
I have an odd feeling I should learn all this
Same, so this world shall know pain
I’m trying to learn so I can be like Batman and protect myself. Also go around saying I’m Batman bishes 😎😈
@@cassieramirez9938 yeah I don’t think Krav Maga would help you be Batman 💀 I suggest bjj or muey Thai
@@NutriGlowK I gonna try to learn that too. But Krav Maga is also one of his main martial arts
@@cassieramirez9938 Krav Maga isn’t martial art Krav Maga is the usage of other martial arts. Striking comes from muey Thai also you can’t even kick in Krav Maga you’re half assing it
5:20 i wouldn't recommend hopping, at least if you are facing against opponent that knows what he's doing, as if he catches you in the right moment he can sweep away your leg much easier, although crossing your feet is incorrect on which i agree, as it doesn't provide much stability, I have few more nit picks but she's just white belt so I'm forgiving her on this one ^^
La base de tout système de combats rapprocher. Bonne leçon. Merci
Anyone else watching lying on the bed 😂😂
Support me please!!
😂
Military friend sent me your videos, I'm greatful this great educational experience, thanks so much

Thank you! 👍🏼
I like it so much.
It is indeed powerful
all that good stuff
I like this a lot I think that it is nice thank you.
Thank you too! globalmartialarts.university/course/kravmaga/
hmm interesting what mike said about the backhand having more rotation
How can a person test without a training partner???
That's a good question. We do recommend that our Krav students have a training/testing partner as they get into the higher ranks :) globalmartialarts.university/course/kravmaga/
