006 Self Defense Law - Krav Maga Podcast
19/07/2015 Duration: 09minTodays podcast is about Self Defense LawsIt’s important that you research and find what laws govern your country and state. I’m my experience in different counties is that they widely differ in self defense. Once, I was in a place that required you by law to flee the situation and not fight back. Basically it was illegal to defend yourself. In another country I visited recently, if the threat had a 9 cal bullet that he was shooting you with, you could not have a higher caliber gun then the threat. Pretty crazy!Each states varies in some aspects of the law of self defense so do your self a favor and know your states laws. Simply search your state + Self defense laws and you should be able to find what you need.In the USA, we have a basic right to defend ourselves and others if it’s lawful..What is Lawful?California self-defense law requires the following “elements” of the defense to be true:When you committed your crime, you reasonably believed that you were in imminent danger of being killed, seriously injure

005 What is more dangerous, gun or a knife? - Krav Maga Podcast
03/07/2015 Duration: 10minThis is a semi loaded question. Obviously, if there is gun to your head or a knife to your throat it doesn’t matter which is more dangerous at that moment. All that matters is that you survive no matter what. But if we decided to break down knife vs gun threats, or attacks we can really see deep inside the problem and discuss certain theories. Let’s start with the pistol and lets not talk about rifles at the moment sense they are long range and not typically close hand to hand range like a knife or even a pistol are. Guns are amazing tools. They allow you to shoot a target at a close, medium, and semi far distance. They don’t need a lot of skill to be fired or used as a tool of intimidation. Knifes on the other hand you must be close. But knifes are amazing weapons to because they never jam. They never need to reloaded. They are easily concealed. And they a cheap and easily to get. Pistols are “less” personal as a knife is a very personal attack. What I mean is, you have to be up close to stab some one

004 Fighting Back (and why we should) - Krav Maga Podcast
03/06/2015 Duration: 11minThe Truth about fighting BackFor more go to www.kravmagaxd.com Is resistance an effective strategy for preventing crime? Almost all studies show that resistance is successful in preventing the completion of a personal crime. This holds true in rape, robbery, and assault (23). Resistance is an especially effective tactic in preventing most rapes. A woman who physically resists a rapist doubles her chance of escaping rape (24). and that even includes NOT having proper training. Woman with self defense training have outstanding odds. In fact, sociologist Jocelyn Hollander did a study and looks at the outcomes for 117 college students who received this self-defense training versus a control group of 169 students who did not. Of those, seventy-five from the first group and 108 from the second agreed to take part in a follow-up survey or interview. The results are clear: a much lower percentage of the women who took the self-defense class reported incidents of unwanted sexual contact than t

003 Freezing in a Fight - Krav Maga Podcast
31/05/2015 Duration: 10minFreezing in a fight is one of the biggest fears I find in myself and my students. We train hard to try and eliminate the fear of freezing but when it boils down to it, we can’t eliminate freeze but we can decrease it’s power over us with proper training, understanding, and knowledge of this topic. Let’s cover the different types of freezes there are according to Rory Miller in “Facing Violence”. Bye the way, I did not invent these ideas. This is my interpretation, research, and takeaway from Rory Miller’s Facing Violence and my own experiences. Types of Freezes Tactical Freeze.This is when you freeze on purpose to not expose yourself (you freeze to not be noticed) or to gather more information (you feel something is wrong so you freeze to gather information to find the problem. Also a strategic way to use this freeze is while in a situation where you freeze (or stop interacting) with the threat to let them cool down. But not if the fight has already started. This is more of a pre fight strategy. You mus

002 We Should Start Self Defense Training at an Early Age - Krav Maga Podcast
25/05/2015 Duration: 05minIf I were the president of the United States my first order of business would be to start a mandatory self-defense policy at age 12. In the beginning, people would probably oppose this idea and want to rebel against it. But the long term the results would be astounding. Imagine the statistical anomaly that would happen if every kid learned self-defense techniques and concepts at the early age of 12. Did you know that 1 in 3 females are estimated to be attacked or molested in some way? Mostly this occurs between the ages of 12-17. That is terrible and shocking thing to consider. What do you think the number would be if every child had the self-confidence, knowledge, and understanding of self-defense, and knew how to stand up for themselves? I think that the statistics would change dramatically.Next, let’s talk about predators and prey. Most attacks on adults (and kids) are premeditated. Attackers scope out the “kill” and plan their attack. They look for the odd person out of the herd. The person that is timid,

It is essential to master the way we think and prepare for attacks. If we are not mentally prepared, it is going to be difficult to perform well when beingattacked no matter your level of physical skills.HOW do we mentally train?We call it shortening freeze time. The Stoics called it Negative Visualization.It is a very good drill to perform because it allows you to anticipate mentally the steps you need to be successful in ANY given situation. You can use itin physical training, in your work life, in your relationships….Freeze Time-the time you are literally “frozen” in a situation without knowing what to do.Basically, what you are doing is taking any given situation and imagining it from absolute worst- case s
