Krav Maga

Greetings all!  I'm new to the site and obviously to the group.

I'm a student of KM, which is considered "more martial than art" ...  A reality based SD system developed for the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) which essentially has combined many aspects of different disciplines.  Our striking emphasizes knees and elbow as well as kicks primarily in the flavor of muay thai; punching is essentially analogous to American boxing and while we emphasize not going to the ground (or getting up as quickly as possible) we do some ground work  as well.  Additionally KM is big on weapons defense.  In our school we also do some MMA (utilizing BJJ for groundwork).  Awesome workout, and one of the fastest, easiest to learn systems available!!! 

I have great respect for all arts,  and am curious about training regimines for other disciplines.

Look forward to hearing from everyone!
