Core techniques and combinations in Krav Maga

David Kahn’s guide organizes Krav Maga around a selection of core combatives and the principles for executing them. Its coverage ranges from developing power and balance to upper- and lower-body techniques, combinations, and retzev, described in the source as continuous combat motion. The contents also include takedowns and throws, armbars, leglocks, and chokes. The book presents these skills as a foundation for counter-attacks, with emphasis on technique and execution. The hardcover edition includes full-color photographs.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Krav Maga trainees seeking to refine foundational combatives and combinations.
  • Security-conscious civilians, law enforcement officers, security professionals, or military personnel interested in defensive tactics.
  • People with or without a self-defense background seeking an introduction to defensive combatives, as described by the publisher.

Book overview

BECAUSE NOT ALL KRAV MAGA IS THE SAME(R)


Hardcover format includes all photos in FULL COLOR!



This book is designed for krav maga trainees, security-conscious civilians, law enforcement officers, security professionals, and military personnel alike who wish to refine their essential krav maga combatives, improve their chances of surviving a hostile attack and prevail without serious injury.




Combatives are the foundation of krav maga counter-attacks. These are the combatives of the original Israeli Krav Maga Association (Grandmaster Gidon).




It is irrefutable that you need only learn a few core combatives to be an effective fighter. Simple is easy. Easy is effective. Effective is what is required to end a violent encounter quickly, decisively, and on your terms. This book stresses doing the right things and doing them in the right way. Right technique + Correct execution = Maximum Effect.




Contents include:




  • Key strategies for achieving maximum combative effects


  • Krav maga's 12 most effective combatives


  • Developing power and balance


  • Combatives for the upper and lower body


  • Combative combinations and retzev (continuous combat motion)


  • Combatives for takedowns and throws


  • Combatives for armbars, leglocks, and chokes


 



Whatever your martial arts or defensive tactics background or if you have no self-defense background at all, this book can add defensive combatives and combinations to your defensive repertoire. Our aim is to build a strong self-defense foundation through the ability to optimally counter-attack.
