    Krav Maga who's practicing it?

    I'm thinking of starting a course for it...I know how to fight pretty well but
    I guess never can fight well enough.....saw some youtube clips and I like
    that simpleness and effectiveness of it. So who's practicing it and how do you
    like it?

      Ok Cool thanks, maybe I should add I'm not interested in learning howto
      fight pretty....I don't care about pretty and complex techniques...what I
      like is quick, cruel, effective dissabling the opponent....

        Hey,

        Elke zaterdag om 10:30 geven ze krav maga boven de Vomar in Heemskerk...

        Je hebt het ookin Beverwijk bij Frank Pfilipoon(ofzo) Ik vond Frank beter/leuker en dan kon je 2-3 keer per week komen. Echter bij de Vomar is het wat effectiever denk ik. Bij Frank leer je ook meer Jiu jutsu erbij enzo
        Questions?

          Harold rijkserkend krav maga instructeur.
          Gisteren hebben Harold en Richard van Asdonck de rijkserkenning voor krav maga instructeur gekregen. Uit handen van Frank Philipoom docent opleidingen van de Stichting Japanse Krijgskunsten kregen Harold en Richard het diploma.

          Samen met Frank Philipoom zijn Harold en Richard momenteel de enigste in Nederland die de rijkserkening voor Krav Maga hebben. De voorgaande de diploma's die bij verschillende Israelische instructeurs behaald waren zijn in Nederland niet geldig. Ondanks dat krav maga geen Japanse- en helemaal geen krijgskunst is, is het Krav Maga wel ondergebracht bij deze bond. Dus na Frank Philipoom hebben nu ook twee E.I.K.M. instructeur de rijkserkenning.
          Questions?

              lol, I took Krav Maga in the 7th grade, and from what I remember it's 90% oriented in the balls area... kick in the balls, elbow the balls, bit the ballz.. funniest Karate style ever!

                Krav Maga is a bit of a strange beast. I personally don't like any martial art that teaches you to disarm guns, because in all reality it's very silly.

                An example is in Costa Rica we had a guy who's trained a lot in Krav, and he insisted and showing various techniques. One day he asked me to "hold your fingers like a gun and put them to my head". I obliged and he did a pretty slick and pretty quick disarm technique. When I asked to start again but this time I just took 2 steps backwards in to a modified weaver stance before pretending to point my fake gun, he just stood there staring at me. Nothing he could do, and he knew it.

                Personally, I would look in to some Judo. It's loaded with tradition and it's a really usable, effecient art. If you can throw somebody hard, it takes all the fight out of them right on the spot nine times out of ten.

                Just my two cents.

                    I tapped out a Krav Maga guy who practiced for over 10 years.

                    His ego got hurt and never came back.


                    Anyway, don't waste your money on bullshit martial arts. Take a boxing class, kick boxing class or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

                      I'm black belt Judo and have done a decent amount of Jiu Jitsu... I know
                      it's not all very realistic.....IF your oponent knows what's about to happen
                      but usually they don't a big part of the effectiviness seems like the suprise
                      effect as a guy with a weapon usually doesn't expect his target to make
                      a move for it.....

                      Another part what attracts me is the training of natural responses and
                      reflexes which Krav greatly depends on unlike most other forms of martial
                      defense arts. I'm not going to try it with the idea to become unbeatable
                      or some badass street fighter.....but I get what you're saying

                        Done boxing for years too....you can beat anyone even if without fighting
                        skills.....a big heavy object like a glass ashtray can knock out anyone especially
                        when he least expects it....

                            i forgot where his gym is. i don't think its in Amsterdam... i keep thinking its in rotterdam. if you really want to learn effective, practical fighting - i.e. devastating striking and kicking that has been proven in centuries of real world fighting, rather than centuries of jackasses in small, typical martial arts schools with everyone focused on living a fantasy of being a "fighter", there is nothing better in my opinion than muay thai/kick boxing and holland has a lot of great fighters and gyms.

                                  I would suggest kickboxing or muay thai if you want to know how to pummel people in real life. Pretty much any martial arts only work if they guy youre fighting is fighting by the same rules as you. That shit is for movies.
