Beginner Krav Maga: Basic Combatives



This is an Excellent Basic Krav Maga Training Video!
I have been practicing the martial arts for 38 years and have been teaching for 23 years and I found this and the other Krav Maga DVD produced and taught by Michael Hodges to be excellent resources for the practice of Krav Maga and for anyone who wishes to learn the basics of effective and efficient self-defense. I am also a police instructor and full-time police officer and I am integrating some of these basic, yet effective, techniques into my training program for the officers who serve on my police department.

Mr. Hodges' teaching style is very straightforward and is appropriate for students and instructors who learn from a variety of learning modalities such as Visual (seeing - Mr. Hodges shows you the techniques), Aural (hearing - Mr. Hodges explains the techniques), and Kinesthetic (doing - Mr. Hodges has the student actually do the techniques with him).

Great instruction for self defense, well worth the price
The videos take an excellent approach to self defense. Basic, yet thorough in their content and how they approach the topic of serious self defense in today's troubled world, which by the way may be in your back yard. These videos were easy to follow and the techniques were well explained and staged for the beginner and early practitioner. I have some background in Aikido from many years ago, and I chose these videos and the techniques taught here to be able to end a serious situation before it gets worse. FYI one should always avoid conflict and be aware of your surrounding and potentially dangerous situations. Never go looking for trouble no matter how confident you are in your abilities. Be prepared but be wise!

Easy to understand
One of the best DVD's I've seen. The way it is broken down makes it easy to understand and practice one skill at a time. If someone wanted to learn Krav Maga and was unable to receive personal, face to face instruction this is the DVD set I would recomend.
