#AMoveForThat #FearlessWednesday

@maryf:


Yes and they are applicable in more than one aspect.


The system I teach, Urban Krav Maga (urbankravmaga.org), draws on many years of experience in various fighting systems and martials arts such as classic Krav Maga, Karate, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Traditional Jiu Jitsu, Aikido, Boxing, Muay Thai, Vale Tudo and MMA. This experience along with real life experiences have been combined in a way that only functional techniques -i.e. techniques that have proven to be applicable in real life situations, taking into account the effects of stress and adrenaline- are part of the syllabus. In other terms, only functional and applicable techniques are selected and taught.


The organisation is open-minded and the system is constantly refined as instructors get feedbacks from unfortunate students who got into situations, from police and security professionals (we work closely with both), from CCTV and phone footages, from research studies, etc. We're not dogmatic about the techniques, we just focus on what's effective. Obviously what would work for a 6ft4 17 stones guy might not work for a 5ft6 9 stones person, so we're always questioning the techniques we teach and we're constantly trying to find better, more effective, ways.


Additionally, techniques are considered as tools that can be used in a variety of ways for a variety of situations. As I've already mentioned, Urban Krav Maga instructors are not stuck to any martial art dogma, so training focuses on acquiring and developing (fighting) skills and being able to improvise in order to adapt to any situation. These skills can be transfered to other sports and activities.


Lastly, being able to handle physical violence and learning to deal with aggressive behaviour leads to an increased self-confidence and self-esteem which, of course, will impact many aspects of your life.


I hope this answers your question. Why about you come some Wednesday and give it a (free) try?

    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down! 
    • Because of the weather which delayed completion with roofer only being able to work certain days, it was up from November - end of January. Went slightly higher than gutters (we also had guttering replaced).
    • It's tough being a courier and the pay which is largely based on the number they deliver is miserable. Hence the staff turnover is high. EFRI was previously branded as HERMES but they had to create a new brand name because of poor performance. We get regular courier deliveries and EVRI are by far the worst. They just drop the parcel at the front door - often without ringing the bell. But worst is when they deliver to the equivalent door number on LL instead of ours on EDG. Best are ParcelForce, DHL and DPD by a wide margin.
    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
