Combat & defence skills & manuals; Combat sports & self-defence

For security-conscious civilians, law enforcement officers, military personnel, and security professionals alike who want to improve their chances of not just surviving an armed attack, but increase the odds of prevailing without serious injury.

Krav maga's popularity in professional law enforcement, military, and security circles is attributable to its practicality, simplicity, quick retention, easy learning curve, and brutal effectiveness. This effectiveness is built on a few core tenets and simple building blocks. General principles are applied and customized to suit the needs of a dynamic violent situation.

Contents include:

• Mind-sets, reactions, and tactics in response to violence

• The highest-level counters against multiple armed attacks and threats

• Core kick, clinch, and tackle defenses

• Core ground survival tactics

• Multiple-opponent strategies and tactics

• Impact weapon defenses

• Edged weapon defenses

• Firearm disarms and retention
