Last night, to end our knife takedown/close quarter combat course, I put an isolation drill in the training. What is meant by an isolation drill is when you train with loads of space, it is easier to get your attacker to the ground, but when I limit the space, you have to think on your feet and adapt to your surroundings.

When I do these drills, I don’t tell my students what to do; I allow them to problem-solve for themselves. That way, they won’t panic in a real-life situation when you don’t have loads of space, when I won’t be there to egg them on/tell them what to do, and when there won’t be a referee to tell them when the fight is over. It’s the most realistic training I can give them in a controlled training environment!

I tried my best to simulate being on a train with limited space. As you might have heard, this type of attack happened last year – https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cp8py1n500lo. It could happen to anyone.

Everyone did brilliantly! I definitely would feel safer travelling with these students!

Last night, we focused on straight-stab defence, followed by practicing takedowns.

In today's world, learning knife defence is essential; simply watching the news on television will highlight this fact. Knives, along with all edged weapons, pose significant dangers – they are extremely perilous.

Regardless of your level of training, it is always advisable to avoid confronting a knife-wielding assailant. Do not attempt to "test your skills". The principle of avoidance remains the most prudent approach.

When it comes to defending against a knife, you may have two potential strategies: defend and fight back, or escape. I use the term "may" because escape is not always feasible; you could find yourself trapped. Consequently, last night we focused on techniques for control and restraint.

We began our session by throwing the knife to one another as a warm-up exercise. This not only prepared you physically but also trained you to evade the line of attack, enabling you to catch the knife without sustaining injury.

It was an excellent class, building upon the takedown session we conducted just two weeks ago, which is beneficial for reinforcing muscle memory. Excellent effort those that attended!

Massive well done to our Kadet’s on their successful grading! Even though the clocks went forward, it was early on a Sunday morning; you absolutely smashed it and were super focused throughout. Keep at it, guys; the skills you learn are a very important life skill! Well done, all! Coach Rob and Instructor Mick are very proud of you all! 👊💪👍 👌!

Special well done to our K6 (Logan) and K7 (Michael & Ronan) grades; these guys have shown so much dedication and discipline to get to this level 👊💪! Also, when it comes to becoming an adult student, they will have a massive head start on someone that is doing Krav Maga for the first time as an adult beginner! Keep smashing it lads!

Very wise words from the founder of Krav Maga!

If you want to walk in peace knowing you won’t freeze when you get attacked and that you will do something rather than nothing, come and learn Krav Maga!
