Krav Maga is a brutal and effective art for self-defense in everyday situations. The movements are very natural and can be accomplished by anyone. This is the official art of the Israeli military for hand-to-hand combat. Krav Maga translated into English means “contact combat.” Imi Lichtenfeld is the founder and creator of this art. The first emergence was in Hungary and Czechoslovakia in the 1930’s. Imi was teaching the Jewish community how to fight off the Nazi militias that were trying to capture them. He then went underground to train the Israeli Defense Forces until Israel became its own nation in 1948. Imi was recognized as the chief instructor for the art of Krav Maga and continued its teachings until his passing in 1998. Krav Maga is now taught all around the world to people of all ages.
