Krav Maga Self Defense Training Classes Protect Women and Children from Danger Building Self-Esteem

July 26, 2011 - PRLog -- Krav Maga self defense training classes at Stockton Karate touted as best form of self protection for women and children.

According to Chris, who is a master of the Krav Maga art of self defense training, Stockton California residents, especially women and children who often found themselves victims of assault and bullying, can be taught how to defend themselves against common choke holds, grabs, and bear hugs, which are often use by their attackers.

“The Krav Maga art of self defense is not traditional martial arts,” said Chris Ost. “It involves no kata routines, or none of the usual karate or Kung Fu rituals. But it is the official hand-to-hand combat system used by members of the elite Israeli Defense Force.”

“Krav Maga is also the preferred system for U.S. Military and law enforcement personnel tool,” he added. Krav Maga self-defense training classes are based on simple principles and instinctive movements, this reality-based system is designed to teach real self defense in the shortest possible time.

This Krav Maga defence system, Ost noted, is ideal for defending one’s self against weapons such as guns, knives, and sticks. “Most important for Krav Maga students is learning to function during the stress and shock of a sudden, violent encounter,” said Ost, who added that it has been tested on the battlefield and in the streets, and has proven to be one of the most practical approaches to defending oneself self-defense and feeling safer and more secure in the process.

Krav Maga self-defense, which is not based on physical strength and brute force, according to Ost, is perfect for women and kids who are usually smaller and have less upper body strength. “They may look like a victim, but their assailant is not expecting them to defend themselves. Their counter attack will catch him off guard,” he said.

“Unlike most Martial Arts, Krav Maga self defense training is extremely effective for the street. Krav Maga is the real thing,” so endorsed by Bas Rutten, the Former UFC Heavy Weight Champion.

However, unlike wrestling or kick boxing, Ost said the Krav Maga self defense training is not all about fighting. In fact, it’s more about getting to the point very quickly.

“Krav Maga involves a quick burst of energy and then you get away. Krav Maga depends upon a few quick strikes strategically placed to vulnerable parts of the body, and then you run. If you hit the right spots you do not require a lot of power to be effective,” explained Chris Ost, a 3rd degree black belt and Krav Maga self defense training classes instructor at Stockton Karate American Martial Arts Academy.

His Krav Maga self defense training classes are held at his martial arts and Stockton Karate dojo located at 6295 Pacific Ave. Stockton, CA 95207.
