Krav Maga Practitioner Sree Ram

The Krav Maga training, we have done to improve our reflex in a crisis, saved me today..

I would have lost my right arm and right knee to an out of control 3 wheeler which hit my bike's handle bar & footrest.

Not only in a split second i moved my arm and leg inside, but managed to retain my balance with the left hand.

Just drove away without a jolt or a scratch... and smiling to myself - I felt that was pretty good for a guy who is touching 50.

Thanks to Krav Maga and its intense reflex training. :)

It’s never too late to learn a how to defend yourself — after all, the streets aren’t getting any safer

You could be petite or small-built, but never underestimate what your body can actually do. And that goes even for the women. The world isn’t getting any safer and one of the best ways to protect oneself is to learn a form of art that will come handy when you’re in trouble. From judo, karate, kick-boxing, kalari — there are plenty of options. Even a form that has its roots far away in Israel like Krav Maga is fast-gaining popularity in Bangalore.

Krav Maga enables you to defend yourself without having to use a weapon.

Frank, a certified instruction, has been training 200 people and most of his students are women. "It is important for women to learn this more than the men as they can defend themselves better during a blind-attack situation as they kick and punch their way through the brawl. This form of martial art also instills confidence and improves a person’s body language," he says.

Many women have secured themselves from the fear of being attacked and harassed by kicking and punching away in Krav Maga style. Frank has been trained by Vicky Kapoor, chief instructor, Krav Maga, India, who has also trained Abhay Deol for his upcoming film.

"My tryst with Krav Maga began while I was living alone in Delhi, since it was an unsafe city. It was when I met a few army officers who told me about this martial art that I developed a passion towards it and finally turned into my profession," says Frank.

There is no specific criterion required to learn Krav Maga and Frank says, "There is no strength factor involved in this form.  Krav Maga does not mean getting into a fight. Instead, it works as a stress buster that helps you get away from it."

Mumbai: "Twist and turn ...straight punch" — an instructor barks out these orders in a room full of women learning to kick and punch their way out of trouble.

It's a place where young female professionals are undergoing training in Krav Maga, the lethal Israeli martial art. With an alarming rise in crime against women professionals, many firms have started offering self-defence training courses to their female employees.

The trend is more pronounced in the BPO industry where women often have to work on the graveyard shift. As more and more women swipe into offices, harassment is one of the issues they encounter as they step out of their homes.

Manisha Bedi (name changed), a 24-year-old executive, is thrilled about a session organised by her employer where she discovered the technique of how to kick, strike a blow and get out of an attacker's grip.

Crimes against women, including sexual harassment and rape, have gone up 93% and 40%, respectively, in 2007 compared to 1996, according to National Crime Records Bureau and Home Ministry. A significant number of women are employed in the services sector — IT-BPO, airlines, hospitality, hospitals and retail.

Over 35% women comprise the workforce of the $60 billion IT BPO sector. A few years ago, the rape and murder of a call centre executive had rocked the industry, underscoring the lapses and loopholes in corporate security practices. To safeguard women's interests, companies are conducting self-defence workshops on the campus.

A power-to-telecom corporate has arranged a post-lunch 90-minute session for its women employees to practise fist-to-face moves. Such initiatives help in promoting women empowerment and gender inclusiveness, said industry observers. At these  workshops, women are not only given training in the physical aspects of warding off an attack but are also taught to be mentally alert.

Let’s face it — it is easy to tire of workouts. Running on the treadmill every day or following the same weight-training routine for a few months can become boring. It also ceases being challenging when your body gets used to it.

To mix things up a bit, take up a martial art. It’s a great workout that tones your body, jogs your mind, and also sharpens your reflexes, keeping you safe on the streets. Not only are there plenty of options to choose from, but you’ll also never have a dull moment in your workout.

Whether you pick a “soft” martial art like t’ai chi chuan, which focuses less on combat and more on holistic health, or a “harder” martial art like karate that teaches you how to protect yourself in everyday situations, you are certain to reap health benefits.

Krav maga

Less a martial art and more a system of hand-to-hand combat devised by the Israeli defence forces, Krav Maga isn’t for the weak-willed. The system combines grappling and wrestling techniques with street-fighting skills. You learn how to break the stranglehold of an attacker by going for his groin, face or knee. Unlike in martial arts where certain moves are not permissible, the focus of Krav Maga is crystal clear: be aware of threats and deal with them as effectively as possible.

Trust us, this ends up giving you as good a workout as any. “Krav Maga improves your cardiovascular strength to the highest level,” says Vicky Kapoor, chief instructor of Krav Maga India. “It also increases your muscular strength.” Apart from improving your coordination and flexibility, Krav Maga also helps you burn calories. “Each workout is an hour-long and can help you burn nearly 800 calories,” he says. A stress-busting workout that makes you think on your feet? Now that’s what we’d call a win-win situation.

How to choose a street smart self defense system

How to choose a street smart self defense system
(My Original Blog Post: http://vickykapoor.com/quotes/street-smart-system/)

Krav Maga Practioner Sree Ram

Often I have come across this sarcastic query, "Do martial arts really work in a street fight! Is it worth training at all!?"

That may be asking like why maintain a fire brigade since it is idle most of the time. Any physical activity is beneficial in some manner.

It could be games, yoga, swimming, cycling, dance or anything. It could improve some element of total fitness – either cardio-vascular, muscular endurance, flexibility or atleast co-ordination and quick thinking; which help in a crisis. But, if you are in a job prone to confrontations like security, policing, hotel bouncer etc., learning fighting arts is definitely a plus.

Or if your life style makes you vulnerable, like living in a crime prone locality, commuting late or transporting valuables.

But a word of caution, look out for these inherent failures in any fighting art before signing up. These system weaknesses make you victim and at worst a casualty. So choose carefully. Your life depends on it.

What are the signs that a martial art is NOT street-smart -

1) CHOREOGRAPHED MOVEMENTS - That is nice in dance. In the street it can make one look ridiculous. Because the most shocking realization in the street is the ‘unpredictability’. Choose a fighting method like KravMaga, which constantly exposes you to attacks from different directions, angles and timings, which makes one adaptable.

2) NO AGGRESSION TRAINING – Having an obliging partner who holds back his punches politely, stands still till the partner goes through all the movements makes one complacent. Choose a method which teaches you the basic skills, then escalates physical and mental stress. KravMaga classes have some energy sapping aggression training.

3) TRAINING IN A SINGLE METHOD LIKE STANDING STYLE OR GROUND STYLE The reality is, one could be standing, sitting or on the ground when attacked. Or it could be even an attack by more than one. Or it could be in a suffocating crowd. If you are training in a martial art which says punching & kicking will solve all problems, or just grappling will do, start praying in a street fight. Better still, choose KravMaga which trains one in kicking, punching, grappling, restraining with locks / holds. And to face street weapons like sticks and knives too.

4) COMPLICATED AND EXOTIC TECHNIQUES Looks great in movies. Or in a demo to school kids. On the street it’s quick and decisive movements which count. Fancy kicks and locks fail miserably in reality, unless you are facing a still dummy. And they take years of repeated practice to be effective. Leave that to the grey-haired masters.

5) PHILOSOPHICAL MUMBO-JUMBO IN CLASS Philosophical nuggets went along with the movie Karate Kid. A self-defense class is about facing a rapist, a mugger or a bunch of drunken goons. Learn that first before worrying about self-actualization.

It’s raining fitness clubs in India. Every month, there is a new chain of ‘the best fitness club’ making its foray into the country. Indian fitness companies are not too far behind either. Among these ‘world-class’ clubs, one name that still stands out rather prominently is Ozone

Fitness & Spa. Wait. Don’t pack your gym bag and definitely don’t write that cheque yet.

How big is the brand?

Ozone is not a pan-India chain yet. They have six studios in the country with three in New Delhi and one each in Gurgaon, Hyderabad and Chandigarh.

How’s the equipment?

“The circular cardio section at the Chandigarh club was quite good and there was ample floor space,” says Men’s Health India editor Jamal Shaikh. But MH contributor and fitness expert Vesna Pericevic-Jacob doesn’t feel the same about the club in Delhi’s Defence Colony. “The cardio section at the Defence Colony club was well laid out but I wouldn’t call it great. The spin studio is cramped. I loved the area designated for yoga, Bollywood dancing, Krav Maga and Pilates though,” she says. On the strength area, they reiterate the same verdict: Inadequate. “It’s definitely not for lifters like me and the place is very cramped,” says Rajiv Khati, assistant editor, Men’s Health.

What about the staff?

“I was very impressed with the reception staff. Well informed, not too pushy and very precise,” says Jacob. “But if you have a small car, like I do, don’t park it in front of the entrance, because according to the valets, the place is reserved for big cars like Mercs, Audis and Beemers,” Khati points out.

Are the trainers any good?

“Unlike other studios, the trainers here were quite hands on, especially in the strength area,” says Jacob. “They knew their stuff, but some of them were carrying a slight paunch, which I think reflects badly on the brand,” says Khati.

What about the cost?

A whopping Rs 82,725 per annum for single entry and Rs 1,43,390 for a couple.

Any extras?

The fee includes the use of the steam and sauna facilities, as well as a fairly impressive range of optional classes. Plus, a member can use any of the gyms in the country four times a month. “In Chandigarh, the path leading to the gym is laden with posters of bulky figures and thanks to the blue light, it feels like you are entering a dingy night club even during the day,” says Shaikh. So much for extras!

Verdict: Ozone still holds its guns and is one of the better places to workout, provided you want to and can shell out that kind of cash. But if your main aim of joining a health club is to socialise, go on, you may write that cheque now!
