Advanced Class Fight Gear Reminder
Just a reminder to everyone attending the Krav Maga Advanced class that you should always bring all your fight gear. Even when we are not running the sparring curriculum specifically, we will often include fighting in skills training and drills. If you do not have your gear, you cannot participate in class.
If you are new to the Advanced class and have not yet purchased the required gear, please do so before attending.

Assuming you cannot avoid a confrontation entirely, being able to read these precursors and developing your “when” are at the core of our self-defense training.

Two Excellent Sam Harris Essays on Self-Defense
I recently read these two essays and wanted to share because they relate so well to the principles of Krav Maga.
Krav Maga is not specifically mentioned, but the first essay most certainly draws from the same playbook.
“The Truth about Violence: 3 Principles of Self-Defense”
The second essay is apropos of all the groundfighting we’ve been training these past few weeks.
“The Pleasures of Drowning”
