It's Krav Maga. Magav is the Israeli border police.

Magav is also a squeegee or windshield wiper :D

Laav davka border police.

More and more law enforcement agencies and armies started using krav maga.

Within a relatively short time, you can learn to defend and fight quite well.

I believe they teach krav maga in the Israeli Army. Maybe approach an army graduate and ask him (or her) to think about opening a class...You never know :-)

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

They teach basic krav maga in the army, not enough to teach others or start a class.

I trained under this guy
http://youtu.be/xnZ0sfOiuIM
fantastic teacher but it isn't pure Krav Maga. Krav is a basic self defense system. The advantage of it is it's very very effective and simple. The disadvantage is IMHO that it isn't comprehensive enough with grappling situations. This guy's background is in Judo/Jiu jitsu so we focused on that as well. If you looking for something that you want to stick with long term, see if you can find a place that offers more then just basic KM.

Not to say KM isn't a great start and something that you can always work on. Its a fantastic system (not an art), much like Jeet Kune Do, if not more basic.

I know that army krav maga does not qualify anyone to be an instructor, but for beginner's purposes he might be able to provide introductory instruction.
I would def understand if people would not feel comfortable with that...Good luck!

Many of my friends went to the IDF, several to very good units. Only the ones who went to top units (Duv Duvan for instance) had advance training in KM. Most learn only the most basic defense, usually utilizing their rifle/carbine in most of their defense moves. Being that in the civilian world you normally aren't carrying one, it makes alot of the training useless. Its a good start for them, but in the same Dojo the Roy (the video above) teaches at, there are several former IDF guys (Golani, etc) who told me the training they received from Roy is light years ahead of their army training. Just bc someone was in the IDF doesn't make him a qualified teacher.
