Teaching methodology and didactics.
In 1964, when Imi Lichtenfeld the founder of Krav Maga, left the military to introduce the technique to the civilian world, he carefully considered preserving it for future generations providing a foundation for meaningful progress. To achieve this, Imi divided the technical content into graduations through belts, recognizing the student's progress and hard work.
Honoring the past helps ensure the future of the art remains true to its roots. Even with the technical updates needed to keep our students up to date, the Official Krav Maga is doing its part and mission to preserve the fundamental values ​​and traditions of the art created by Imi, guaranteeing the real Krav Maga with the quality and seriousness of teaching that our students deserve to receive.
In this initial stage, the student discovers highly
efficient basic attack and defense movements
that he could not even imagine performing.
At this stage, the student can develop more complex defenses with combinations
of techniques learned from the previous phase. The student already
feels much safer and more confident with more precise movements.
At this stage, the student starts at a more advanced level
with all the knowledge acquired previously and faces defenses against more
complex aggressions and begins to develop self-control in parallel.
Now with much more self-control, the student has much
faster reactions with consistent movements. Self-confidence
and self-esteem become much higher.
At this more advanced stage, the student is already
capable of facing various types of situations,
including much more aggressive ones.
At this highly advanced stage, the student prepares
for the black belt. The defenses reach a much more
instinctive level and with precise movements.
As a black belt and with all the knowledge learned from previous degrees,
the student reaches the top of the self-defense ladder. The body and mind are
prepared to respond instinctively and effectively to any type of threat and aggression. Achieving a black belt is a personal merit that, through dedication
and commitment, everyone is capable of achieving.
