The Dark Truth About Modern Krav Maga Schools

I was skeptical about Krav Maga for a long time. That is until I saw videos of Itay Gil, an Israeli Special Forces commander and expert of Krav Maga. Yet is his approach to Krav Maga an exception or the rule? 00:00:00 Introduction 00:00:43 "Crash-testing" martial arts 00:12:00 The image of Self Defense online 00:21:10 How to assess a Krav Maga school 00:34:14 Finding a good self-defense school 00:44:23 How to train for real combat 00:53:41 Mental blockages in self defense 00:57:01 Developing a survival instinct 01:01:52 Unrealistic instructors 01:08:58 About “Protect Academy” 01:22:09 Is Krav Maga in Israeli Army Better? 01:31:00 Itay’s message to the viewer 01:34:00 Outro --- Welcome to the Martial Arts Journey YouTube channel! My name is Rokas. I'm a Lithuanian guy who trained Aikido for 14 years, 7 of them running a professional Aikido Dojo until eventually I realized that Aikido does not live up to what it promises. Lead by this realization I decided to make a daring step to close my Aikido Dojo and move to Portland, Oregon for six months to start training MMA at the famous Straight Blast Gym Headquarters under head coach Matt Thornton. After six months intensive training I had my first amateur MMA fight after which I moved back to Lithuania. During all of this time I am documenting my experience through my YouTube channel called "Martial Arts Journey". Now I am slowly setting up plans to continue training MMA under quality guidance and getting ready for my next MMA fight as I further document and share my journey and discoveries. --- If you want to support my journey, you can make a donation to my PayPal at [email protected] SUBSCRIBE to see when the next videos will come out: ► http://bit.ly/1KPZpv0 Check the video "Aikido vs MMA" which started this whole Martial Arts Journey: ►    • Aikido Master Challenges Pro MMA Fighter (...   If you want to support me and this channel on a regular basis check my Patreon page: ►   / rokasleo   #kravmaga #selfdefense #martialarts
