Commando Krav Maga is a reality based system that understands the importance of being universal. In real life street fighting, you never know what environment you will be in when the time comes that you must defend yourself. So, it is very important to be able to adapt to different surroundings in order to ensure your survival.

One of the most important points of adapting to your environment with CKM is knowing your escape routes. When you are confronted with an attacker, he is the main priority when it comes to your attention. You also want to be sure that you can quickly find an escape route after you have engaged and debilitated the attacker, so you can get yourself to safety.

When it comes to knowing your surroundings, also be aware of anything around you that you may also use as a weapon if needed. In Commando Krav Maga you learn that many things can be used as a weapon when used properly. Objects such as chairs, bats, chains and many more diverse objects can quickly and easily become lethal tools in combat.

Straight Punch Defense CKM

Commando Krav Maga Vancouver

There are many Commando Krav Maga techniques that are designed for different types of attacks. For this example, we are going to describe what you would do if an attacker tried to punch you from the front.

So you have the attacker in front of you and he swings a straight punch your way. You quickly raise both hands up and deflect his punch down and away from your face. At the same time, you bring your other arm up and use your forearm to strike the attacker as you lean to the side of him.

As the attacker continues to lunge forward with his punch, you step to the side and eventually behind him. From here, you continue to pull your arms around and apply a rear choke on the attacker. This leaves the attacker debilitated and immediately begins to bring him down as you apply pressure from the choke. This now gives you the ability to get yourself away from the attacker, safe and unharmed.

Mental Strength Wins The Fight

Commando Krav Maga is not just focused on physical strength and ability. A large part of CKM is mental and psychological as well. The tactics and techniques can be lethal and are not meant to satisfy one's ego as CKM is meant only for your protection and the protection of others. You should never be the one to instigate the confrontation and force should only be used if absolutely necessary.

Remember, the only winner in any fight is the one who goes home safe and doesn't end up in jail or the hospital. Many fights are started because someone's ego is in the way of their judgment. CKM teaches you to never let your ego cloud your judgment if confronted with a fight. Engage and disengage as fast as possible. There is no sense in beating someone senseless if you can simply counter-attack and then immediately get yourself and your loved ones to safety.

Your mental strength ultimately determines the limits of your physical strength. For example, if you were going to arm wrestle a friend of yours and the entire time you were thinking that you were probably going to lose, you would have a much higher chance of losing that match than if you were constantly thinking that you were going to win. If you were to interview people that have achieved things that are considered very successful goals, especially fighters and athletes, they would never tell you that they won the fight or achieved their goals by telling themselves that they didn't think they could do it.

In Commando Krav Maga, the training is completely reality based. The training you go through is intended to maximize your chances of survival on the streets. You learn how to survive the most unpredictable situations. A real life street fight does not have rules or any type of honor system by which people have boundaries that they do not cross. There is no telling what your attacker may use as a weapon or how many people may come to help them.

In your CKM training, you will learn skills and techniques that will give you the ability to survive any attack, regardless of whether you are in your own home, a parking lot, or virtually anywhere else you may find yourself. You’ll learn how to defeat any attacker, even if they have a weapon such as a gun or knife. Commando Krav Maga teaches you the same techniques that are taught to elite military units and SWAT units worldwide.

To learn how you can get the same hand-to-hand combat training as commandos from all around the world, click the link below.

Faced with a Gun? Here is what you do!

The example listed below is just a short, basic example of how Commando Krav Maga could mean life or death for you in a given situation.

Let’s say that you are approached on the street by a man who thinks you are someone else and he wants to fight you. Naturally, you do not want any confrontation and you do not wish to fight this man. As a person with Commando Krav Maga Training, you quickly realize that even though you hope for the best, you must also prepare for the worst.

Your first step in resolving this issue with the man would be to announce loudly (so that others around you can hear you) that you do not wish to fight with the man or have any type of confrontation. The man becomes even more frustrated and pulls a gun out and puts it against your chest. This is the time that you must quickly engage your attacker, and get yourself to safety as fast as possible.

You quickly rotate your torso to the side so that the gun is now pointing away from you as your chest is now rotated to the side of the gun. As you do this you grab the man’s wrist, pulling him forward and throwing him off balance. From here, you take your other hand and grab the barrel of the gun and twist it towards the man using your torso to rotate into the motion. This overpowers the man’s grip on the gun and now you have full possession of the gun and can now move yourself to safety without anyone being hurt.

Commando Krav Maga Vancouver

In CKM, simplicity is extremely vital. Any technique that takes more than 2 gross motor skills is too difficult to perform under stress. Most of the tactics in Commando Krav Maga have been designed to be simple and powerful so you do not have to think about the move under a stressful situation. The techniques learned in CKM work regardless of the attacker's size, or the direction from which they are coming from.

Many mixed martial arts or MMA Fighters have added Commando Krav Maga training into their training for their fights. This is largely due to the fact that the moves and techniques that are taught in CKM are so simple and yet so effective and powerful. A fight on the streets is extremely unpredictable so there are no guidelines to follow or rules to go by. Much like a real fight, MMA fights are very fast-paced so the fighter has to be able to think quickly and his movement and techniques need to be simple so they can become as close to instinct as possible.

As simple as the techniques in Commando Krav Maga are, it took many years of research and testing to truly evolve CKM to the level that it is today. CKM has been evolving into what is today ever since the second world war. Once you have learned the simple but powerful CKM techniques, you will have a much greater chance of survival on the streets.

Engage and Disengage

Commando Krav Maga Vancouver

A core concept of Commanda Krav Maga is Engaging and Disengaging as fast as possible. Having a big ego in a street fight can be the difference between life and death. Staying engaged with your attacker is dangerous as it allows more time for them to use a weapon, or for their friends to come and help them attack you. Disengaging whenever possible is just as important as engaging as quickly as possible. As soon as you can, you should disengage your enemy and get to safety.

To take this a step further, CKM also holds the concept of inflicting the maximum amount of damage, in the absolute minimal amount of time. Commando Krav Maga tactics and techniques are designed to do exactly that. CKM trains you to debilitate your attacker with simple, yet effective street tactics that will ensure your safety and survival.

Commando Krav Maga - Concepts of Combat

Commando Krav Maga Vancouver

Commando Krav Maga is a reality based system. CKM Provides a solution to real life, face to face encounters. On the streets, there are no rules, no referees, and combat is very unpredictable. Your attacker could easily pull a gun, knife, or have friends that could attack you as well.

So what is a "Reality Based System?" To sum it up, Commando Krav Maga is not built on rules and regulations, but rather it is built on real-life scenarios. So rather than just training on techniques and movements, CKM actually implements real-life situations such as knife attacks, gun attacks, baseball bat attacks, punches, kicks, tackles, chokes and many more. The harsh reality of combat is that it is not fair and there are no rules. This is why Commando Krav Maga is utilized by some of the toughest soldiers in the world such as the Israeli Army as well as some SWAT teams and other law enforcement groups.

Commando Krav Maga is based on the concept of thinking like a Commando. That is to say, you engage your enemy only if it is absolutely necessary, and use your enemy's weaknesses to create maximum damage in minimal time. Then, disengage your enemy just as quickly so there is no chance for them to introduce a weapon or for their friends to come to help them. The goal is simple: Survival. This is the reality of the street.

Commando Krav Maga Vancouver

Up until 1948, the fighting system used by the Israeli Army was KAPAP, which means “Fighting Face to Face.” Krav Maga, or “Combat Contact,” was developed by Imi Lichtenfeld, who was in the Israeli Army. By 1964, Imi left the Israeli Army and the Israeli Army had adopted the Krav Maga fighting style.The Israeli Army followed Imi's Krav Maga concepts until 1973 when Moni Aizik, an officer in the Israeli Army at the time, was put in charge of teaching the Israeli soldiers the combat system. Moni Aizik developed and updated the system into what is now known as Commando Krav Maga (CKM).

In 2004, Moni officially released Commando Krav Maga in its modern form to the public. Moni also released several variation courses of CKM that are specifically tailored to different groups, such as the Smartsafe Program for women, and the WIN Program for children. In 2005, Moni launched the CKM Instructor Certification Course/Intensive Boot Camp. Today, CKM is still growing at a face pace and is accepted in over 17 countries world-wide by both civilians and professionals.

Commando Krav Maga has been featured on many News reports as well as Television shows such as Human Weapon. CKM has also been featured in multiple magazines including Black Belt Magazine.

With violence on the rise in many parts of the world, it is important to be able to protect yourself and your loved ones, should you need to. To find out how you can begin protecting yourself while achieving the best physical shape of your life, click below.
