Women's Commando Krav Maga Lesson Layout

Classes are 60 minutes in duration, however longer sessions are avaible by private arrangement. Seminars also take place on occasion.

A typical 60 minute lesson consists of:-

* A basic warm up (Streches, running and balance)
* Fitness Drills ( light pad work, reaction training etc)
* Re-cap of previous techniques
* New techniques
* High Intensity Drills (these work on the basis of indivual best effort)
* Stress Testing (Continuous attacks)

In Women's Commando Krav Maga classes the Instructor will focus on equipping women, as quickly as possible, to be able to identify and aviod a possible confrontation, mental and emotional clarity and focus in the face of danger. Defend themselves on the street wheater it be against a sexual assult, an attacker with a weapon or mulitple attackers. Students work under stress so as to simulate a real street situtation. Drills are conducted with a scenario e.g. mugger on the street, or sexual assult in a side street. The student is taught basic fight psychology to help control and asses a situtaion and to look for the first opportunity to disengage; where this is not possible, the student is taught to deal with the attacker quickly and effectively. There is also a high emphasis on mental toughness training to help develop a 'never give up' frame of mind.
