Krav Maga is
the Israeli Defense Forces Original Intensive Training System of Hand to Hand
Combat. Like any training system, it has
peak periods and decline due to assimilation by others that posses different
mentality.
Peaked in
the 1980’s in the IDF Fighting Fitness Academy this training system was
delivered to trainee soldiers and officers over a 3 week period allowing to
regurgitate the complete training cycles three times helping to memorize the
process with hope to deliver the ability to deliver the complete system to
others.
From a young
athlete that mastered Jujitsu, Boxing, Wrestling, Gymnastics and Swimming acquiring
reality based combat during Nazi Europe Streets arriving in British Palestine
to join the efforts of creating the state of Israel, Immi Sde Or Lichtenfeld
was the official creator of this training system.
Then it was adapted
to the Israel Defense Forces Machine of intensive Training and quality control
further developed by his successor in the IDF Eli Avikzar, and perfected, documented
and analyzed comparatively to all the other hand to hand combat training
systems by Eli Avikzar successor in the IDF Boaz Aviram.
That
training system with distilled ball park of 200 techniques and 15 combat
training drills which were the essence of programming humans in timely recognition
of imminent danger, reaching opponent’s pressure points and manipulating them
with necessary and deadly force before the possibility of harm and death to
oneself is the essence of Krav Maga.
Unfortunately the name Krav Maga used by many other martial arts enthusiasts and charlatans does not reflect the system of Krav Maga!
