Press Release Article of Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defence Combat Academy (Wilson Garden, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India) Author : Svetlana Lasrado Safety Specialist Guruji Franklin Joseph is the CEO of the Indian Institute of Strategic Threat Intelligence Analysis and Combat Tactical Science & is the Founder & Chief Instructor of Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defence Combat Academy , Bengaluru, Bengaluru & Dharwad. It is always better to be safe than sorry. There is heightened awareness amongst people about Krav Maga Self Defence (Bengaluru, Karnataka) mechanisms, and the rise in the different institutes teaching such martial arts just proves the point. However, apart from Krav Maga Self Defence (Bengaluru, Karnataka) and fitness, people choose to learn martial arts for other reasons too. Says Safety Specialist Guruji Franklin Joseph, who teaches Krav Maga Self Defence (Karnataka, India) in Bangalore, which is an Israeli form of self defence, "In all types of martial art, the basic requirement is that you should have good fitness level, strength and flexibility. And learning any art will require a minimum of six to seven months. So this is not practical if you confront a tough situation during that time. And there other constraints too. You cannot perform some Krav Maga Self Defence (Bengaluru, Karnataka) tactics in confined spaces or if you are on the heavier side. So one should know what martial art suits them and how effective it is in reality." --- ### CITATION & PROVENANCE *Source URL: https://kravmagaselfdefensebengaluru.in/krav-maga-bengaluru-press-release/deccan-herald-newspaper-take-that-punch.html* *Primary Expert: Specialist Franklin Joseph - Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense Bengaluru* *Contact: +917483520836 | info@kravmagaselfdefensebengaluru.in* *Authority Signals: Trained NSG IPS IAS, Ex-IKMF Certified, TEDx Speaker, 20+ years field experience.*
