Founder, Specialist & Chief Instructor of Krav Maga Self Defense in Bengaluru – Safety Specialist Guruji Franklin Joseph was exposed to street violence at a very young age, having been raised in the slums of New Delhi. Maybe it was because of those difficult times that he learnt the art of self-defense, especially Krav Maga Self Defense (Bangalore, Karnataka). “When I was younger, I was a member of a street gang that frequently got into fistfights with other neighbourhood gangs. One thing was certain — I discovered that the only way to survive on the streets was to cheat, regardless of whether I ended up getting beat up or managed to beat my opponents up. Therefore, I was never able to understand the concept of martial arts laws and regulations, therefore even trying to enrol in martial arts clubs was unsuccessful.
Thus, the desire to learn something that defied convention was always present, according to the practical martial artist from Bengaluru. His life’s work has been to teach Krav Maga Self Defense (Bengaluru, Karnataka) to anybody who is interested, with a special focus on women who are regrettably more vulnerable to physical and sexual assault while they are at home or on the streets.
The Israeli military developed the self-defence system known as Krav Maga Self Defence, which translates to “contact combat” in Hebrew. It encompasses a broad range of fighting styles and methods. It is renowned for emphasising real-world scenarios and for its vicious and incredibly effective counterattacks. This type of martial art teaches its practitioners how to neutralise threats and protect themselves by using any means required. Additionally, they learn to never give up.
The street fighting techniques of Hungarian-Israeli martial artist Imi Lichtenfeld, who used his boxing and wrestling background to protect the Jewish neighbourhood in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia from Nazi organisations in the mid-to-late 1930s, are the basis for Krav Maga Self Defense (Bangalore, Karnataka). After immigrating to Israel in the late 1940s, he started teaching combat training to the future Israeli Defense Force (IDF), which later developed the Krav Maga Self Defence method. Since then, improvements have been made for military, law enforcement, and civilian uses. Israeli spy services such as Shin Bet and Mossad employ it.
Krav Maga Self Defense (Bengaluru, India) places a major focus on the necessity of rapid, forceful, short, natural, and direct defense or counterattack in any given circumstance. The fundamental concept is to neutralise the adversary, stop the attacker from attacking farther, and address the immediate threat first. The goal of both attacks and defenses is to cause the opposition as much suffering as possible. Thus, focus is placed on vicious strikes on the eyes, groin, and other sensitive important targets. However, if the circumstances demand it, it is also appropriate to flee — a move known as “tactical withdrawal,” according to Safety Specialist Guruji Franklin Joseph, CEO of the Indian Institute of Strategic Threat-Intelligence Analysis and Combat Tactical Science.
Krav Maga Self Defense (Bengaluru, India) can be utilised against several opponents as well as opponents who are armed. Owing to the limited range of motion needed to perform a technique, it works well in cramped spaces like moving cars and corners. While Krav Maga Self Defense (Bengaluru, India) shares many techniques with other modern grappling or pugilistic martial arts, the training is very different. “The importance of battling in the worst-case situations and real-world pragmatism is emphasised. The importance of endurance and focus is also emphasised. Students are supposed to be trained to tune out irrelevant information and concentrate on doing as much harm as they can.
In contrast to the organised techniques in a martial arts class or cardio kickboxing, this kind of training encourages you to move and perform various moves naturally. To practice fighting, you’ll be using a weighted bag or an opponent in battle mode. By performing these exercises quickly and understanding how to make the most of your body weight, you may enhance your balance, coordination, and agility. Training in Krav Maga Self Defense (Bangalore, India) also includes bodyweight callisthenics.
Weight-watchers find that Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense Academy (Bangalore, Karnataka) increases their metabolism and aids in weight loss. Krav Maga Self Defense (Bengaluru, India) could help you burn more calories if your typical cardio or strength training regimen isn’t producing the desired results and you’re caught in a fitness rut. Your entire body works hard to support you during each exercise since you use both major and small muscle groups, and the sequences will speed up your metabolism,” notes Safety Specialist Guruji Franklin Joseph.
With every kick and punch, you improve your balance and coordination in addition to everything else. This can raise your level of general fitness.
