Krav Maga (Hebrew for “Contact Combat”) is not a traditional martial art; instead, it is a self-defense system developed for the Israeli military that focuses on practical techniques for real-world situations. There are no competitions or tournaments in Krav Maga. The emphasis is on survival and escape, rather than sport and competition. Students learn combatives and self-defense, taught through drills and scenarios designed to simulate realistic threats and attacks. Various combatives include, but are not limited to, punches, kicks, elbows, eye gouges, and knees. Krav Maga also incorporates grappling and ground fighting techniques, making it a well-rounded system for self-defense. Students learn to neutralize an opponent quickly and effectively, while also learning to defend against common attacks such as grabs, chokes, and bearhugs. Our system is perfect for men and women all across Costa Mesa, and we can’t wait for you to get started.
