July 19 Level 1/2 @ 5:30

Recap of the 5:30 class

What a great class! Good job 5:30, y'all are a hard working group!

We covered Palm Heel Strikes, a basic forward elbow, knees, and knees from our knees!

It is important to know that as Krav Maga practitioners that we can fight from any position whether it be standing up (preferred), our knees, or on our backs AND that we can deliver more than just hammerfists (as our popular drill loves to demonstrate) ^_^
Almost every combative we learn and practice in Krav Maga can be delivered when we aren't on both our feet and the circumstances for that will vary depending on the situation. The reality of it is, many many many fights end up going to the ground at some point or another, let's just hope WE can avoid that! Stick around in my class - we will play with other combatives from various positions on the ground, like round kicks, elbows, and head butts as well as some choke defenses! It won't be the main focus, but like I said, you should know that should the situation present itself, you can do what you know how to do from ANY position

For our self-defense today we practiced Choke from the Front, 1 Handed Pluck

Remember:

* The pluck and the strike are simultaneous
* Your weight should always be going forward
* Recoil your strikes!
