Krav Maga has been mentioned, a few times, over the course of these articles.
During the Krav Maga Seminar a few weeks ago, one of the attendees was one Tsahi Shemesh (Sa-he, She-mesh). Tshai runs his own Krav Maga school in Manhattan, as part of International Krav Maga, at Upper West Side Manhattan. 2726 Broadway - 3rd floor.
And, as of October 2, 2011, he is running a Women's self defense course every Sunday.
The classes intend to teach women.
-
How to escape hair grabs and hand grabs
- How to get out of bear hug from behind and in front of you
- Escape chokes, holds and strangles.
- How to a get a person off you if he/she is on top of you
- Disable an armed attacker
- Using your personal belongings to defend yourself
Yes, these are all topics covered in previous articles in this column, but having a place the train and go over these manuevers repeatedly is essential to mastering them.
These classes take place on a weekly basis. It is recommended that you register well in advance.
For further details, you can check out the website here (http://www.ikmkravmaga.us/womens-self-defense) or call Tashi at (646)206.3670. Or, you can fire off an email at him at Tsahi@ikmkravmaga.us.
Be safe everyone.
