Krav Maga - Israeli System of Self-defense: 100 Attack and Defense Movements

"A book for everyone". When I first thought about writing this book, I put myself in my student’s shoes. Volume 1 is written in such a way that is suitable for those with Krav Maga experience, as well as those who are just starting or have recently acquired an interest in the art. The techniques are explained through illustrations and simple didactic texts, making the reading enjoyable and easy to understand. This book is an easy-to-read practical and objective guide to learning movements, fully illustrated with Krav Maga's defense and attack techniques. Containing exercises that start from basic and progress to more advanced situations, you will learn the technical details of each circumstance - after all, in Krav Maga, one detail can make all the difference. This book is also an excellent resource for my students and those who practice the art, as it facilitates the understanding of each of the movements practiced during classes. Born in São Paulo, the most populated city and the financial center of Brasil, Sergio Nisenbaum began his Krav Maga journey in late 1999, where he was afforded the opportunity to learn the Israeli martial art in a responsible and legitimate manner. After 5 years of training, he excelled as a student and was considered a candidate for the instructor course. After a rigorous selection, which was divided into 3 stages: physical, technical, psychological, he was chosen to participate in the training course. After 400 hours consisting of theory, philosophy, and didactics of techniques, he was approved and was given the title of a Krav Maga instructor in August 2005. Since then, he has been teaching students of all ages as well as conducting different types of training designed for specific groups.
