I don’t understand the fascination and love affair of Krav Maga people have. It was created by Imi Lichterfeld for the Israeli defense force and commandos. Not for civilian hand to hand or street survival.
Basically, if your rifle fails, and your handgun fails, and your knife fails, then you only need to know enough hand to hand (Krav Maga) to survive until your buddy shoots the bad guy. It was never really designed as a comprehensive fighting art.
But in some circles it has good marketing, there are some unscrupulous trainers that let you take a couple weekends of Krav Maga training, and you will be certified to teach it in your own dojo.
