Training Philosophy
With our team at Krav Maga Middle East, we will teach you a variety of techniques and help you find those techniques that work best for you. Our training programs focus on the use of drills to instill in your muscle memory the defensive (blocks) and offensive (counter attacks) maneuvers that will keep you alive during a violent attack. Through this approach, your response to a threat will be instinctive. You will act immediately, without thinking, and avoid leaving yourself vulnerable to the mistakes people often make in high-stress situations.
