    Subscribed. A teacher like this is exactly what you need in your training. You don't need someone who delicately touches you when showing how you'll get grabbed on the street. You want the shock and pressure to be in the gym, not on the street.

      How real is it when he wont use a small person to do the experiment with, he squats down to mimic a shorter person BUT can still reach his opponent?? If you're tiny that wont be just a height thing, now your arm span would be shorter. He actually lowered his body to mimic eg a smaller woman BUT still threw a punch with an arm span of a tall person?? lmao how is that realistic?? Tall people should not teach marial arts, this guy can use brute force and beat anyone, styles/tactics are for those who are disadvantaged in power or stature (size)

    I like this guy. He adds some realism into the situation. Yes, if you are getting choked, you messed up several times before this. I love the fact he calls out BS on some of the other techniques posted. I can't count the number of times, I've seen an instructor pick a small aggressor to demonstrate the attack. We've always said if you are attacked, the person will either be larger, has a weapon or there is a gang. Often it will be a combination of the three, no one wants to be the aggressor in a "fair" fight.

      I have met guys who can take a decent groinshot without blinking or slowing down in a fight. With enough addrenaline in their system...
      At one time it was a steel toed boot that went right up without a response. However the guy was high as f* and went berserk unprovoced alone against 4 sober guys who know how to handle themselves in an ordinary brawl. He eventually went down but lets just say that they had to work for it. However I can not comment on his ability to procriate after the incident...
      Another incident a teenager get jumped by two others of the same age. After the intial strike he grabs the hair of one and jump knees him in the face. When he land the other one is right behind him and kicks hard right up in the jumped kid's balls, straight on with full force. The attacked kid went with the momentum of the kick and spin-jump around to outer side of the attacker behind him facing him, and on the way down from that spin-jump he kicks the guy in the back of the head, neck and shoulders (not a clean shot). The jumped kid fought off his attackers, did not flinch at a full force shot to the groin in the heat of the moment, but afterward, when the adrenaline whent down, he felt it like ton of bricks and was totaly incapacitated.
      And this is just two examples of many.
      This is why UCs groinkicks up beyond the pelvis is so effective; they do not only rely on pain alone but on structural/posture destruction and follow up. If you can get the guy up on his toes over balancing (key thing) and you can take advantage of that, the level of pain from the groin shot is not as important, it is just a bonus.
      Also if you know how an ordinary groin shot is quite easy to defend very quickly so it do not become a clean hit. It will most hurt like hell afterwards but it will make you able to keep on fighting in the heat of things. I have used it myself several times and comming out on top because of it.
      The moral of my rant is to never ever rely on pain alone, always aim for posture destruction and follow up. A groin shot is not the silver bullet many (often womens) self defence courses paint it to be. It is a means to an end, not a certain end in it self.
      (I am sure you know this already but others reading the comments might not, so that is why I wrote).

    I'm a Krav Maga coach myself and I have to agree with you: all the techniques against static chokes in open spaces are very silly because nobody outside of a self defense class would ever attack like that. The better KM schools point that fact out but I still don't understand why we teach these techniques at all (I don't if I can avoid but as a teacher within one of the bigger associations my say in that is at some points limited). Standard answer is "To teach some principles", which of course is not very satisfying at all. The truth is that KM is now very much in the process of becoming a "traditional" martial art in the sense that anything Imi ever said or did is forever set in stone. Which in itself is silly because Imi was a very analytical and critical person and would have probably been the first to throw out irrelevant techniques. I don't want to be too negative. There are some great people in Krav Maga and I am lucky enough to work in a school where there is a healthy degree of criticism towards some of the more recent developments and where we are still asking the relevant questions: Is this attack realistic? Is this technique applicable under extreme stress? How could someone end up being attacked like this in the first place and what would have been steps to prevent this? I appreciate that in UC you ask these questions consistently and I admit that you guys influenced my approach to reality based self defense quite a bit. Thanks for that!

They happen occasionally, of course (Murphy's Law: any idiotic thing will happen eventually, given enough time and people). But even when they do, getting out of the line via side step and using your shoulder as a leverage is the superior solution.

If you think this language is the hard..click on and move on. Hit the unfollow button. But please understand that this is how the criminal will use language.

    I got choked like that once in high school. The fool's pressure was entirely on my traps and sternomastoids, and all I had to do was tense up -- I could breathe just fine.
    I had a pen in my hand, and ended up having this weird mental argument with myself: "Stick it in his eye." "I can't do that in a classroom full of people!" "In his throat, then." "Also no!" I literally could not think of any moves that DIDN'T involve stabbing.
    Meanwhile, he realized I wasn't choking, and genuinely looked frustrated and baffled. I can imagine him thinking "Why won't you die!?"
    Eventually two other guys pulled us apart. Not exactly a proud moment for either of us. 😖

      I’ve been there. The reason I started training hand to hand was because a big guy attacked me and I had no idea what to do. I’ve always been athletic and in good shape so I thought I’d be fine if I ever had to defend myself. I was wrong. I froze and didn’t know what to do. Been training for many years now. Only had to use it once on the street since I’ve been training. It was 2 guys who attacked 1 guy. I jumped in to break up. I dropped the 1st guy unconscious in seconds with a choke and after that the other one just put his hands up and said it’s cool man. It was much easier than I thought. Untrained fighters have no defense. I’m used to going against guys who also train like I do. The untrained guy doesn’t have a chance.
      By the way, a trained fighter would never try to choke someone like in this video. You’ll never pull that choke off against anyone who has trained for even a short time.

In a life and death situation, SIMPLE techniques and BRUTAL techniques are the most important things. My years of training would make me react using a quick punch, leg sweep and a finishing break of a limb on the ground but those things would only be natural to me because of the many years of training i have and the repeated movements i don't need to think about. But not many people have that and this guy is very good at taking the thinking element out of it. Keep things simple and devastating.

    The thing with my own hands on the hands of the attacker is that it is due to the natural instinct. Many people have the reflex I see in class. In the moment of attack you grab the hands, move the head back and kick the groin.

    Good self-defence lessons. Always a refreshing view, when the bell notifies about his vids. It reminds me not to be solely focused on Kickboxing/MMA, or any other combatsports, because often in the streets and in crowded areas it's a completely different story. Also love the energy of this guy, he mimics the bad dudes so well while telling you what to do in certain situations.

    Great video. I done Krav for two years and agree with the one you demonstrated. WOuld only work against a weak or very little person. Those hooks splitting their arms would work 1 in 10 times if lucky! I always prefered the change the computer response. If you don't change their mind you won't win! I like one I learned in Kickboxing which uses the arm as an anchor inbetween their arms and reinforce it. That is best also after softening them up though imho. Love ya teachings sir, remarkable channel this is.

  • @aarontours
    @aarontours Год назад +19

    What you are demonstrating at 4:00 about « stepping out of line » is in fact an official low level Krav technique for pushing chokes in open space. The added Krav sauce is repositioning your feet for stability, a raised arm while pivoting out os line to apply pressure to the choking wrist (the girl student does this halfway) and a subsequent elbow strike (because you are positioned for it after stepping out of line).

    • @aarontours
      @aarontours Год назад +13

      Furthermore at 5:00 the « pluck » in Krav is ALWAYS accompanied with a groin knee or palm strike to nose/chin. That’s a fundamental principle of Krav: simultaneous defense and strike. Krav 101.

      @@schoolofselfprotection the technique you are teaching isn’t really gross motor skill either.
      If you lined up 10 untrained people and choked them, at the late stage where they have hands around the neck, their natural response would be to protect their airway by grabbing the wrists and forearms of the attacker. It’s very natural behaviour.
      What you teach is trained, fine motor skill and an early phase response, that’s also not great against taller super aggressive attackers.
      You are demonstrating a lack of understanding around timelines, mindset, motor skills and technical limitations - and with an uneducated understanding of what many KM instructors and schools teach.

    Thank you for this video, I really like the intensity in the teaching, has always worked best for me as a student.
    I was taught another method of getting out of the choke besides the plucking technique. This works while moving backwards or against a wall. When someone has both hands on your throat, you raise your arm with your shoulder near your own ear, twist your body into their grip and bring your arm in an elbow strike movement down and across the attackers arms to break their grip.
    I'm a small guy (5'9", 160lbs), and I always asked the biggest student / instructor to grab me like you are instructing, as hard as they can while pushing me backwards, or against a wall. I never had a problem breaking their grip, and it also trapped their arms under mine. You can throw an elbow into their face as you bring their arms down, and this gives you time for additional strikes or even to get away.
    What are your thoughts on this?
