Kore Self Defense is Kore Defense Industries’ physical training center located in Loudoun County, Virginia providing self-defense training built from a Krav Maga Curriculum originally developed by Eyal Yanilov. Building from this foundation, our curriculum is fueled by continuous research in the evolution of conflict and violence in the post-modern world. Unlike other Krav Maga based programs, our goals are not based on a systemic martial arts paradigm. We focus instead on what is relevant to our students now – today. Krav Maga is our “hardware” and reality based self-defense is our “software”. Our Program Developer & Owner works collaboratively with Chiron Training & the International Violence Dynamics Team to keep our principle based self-defense training program relevant, effective, and current. Once certified, our instructors are required to continue their training; keeping their physical and instructional skills current. Like Karate, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and other martial arts, students can train and test for ranks designated by patches as a nod to our military history.

Ghost says, "SIGN UP FOR KRAV OR TREAT!" https://lnkd.in/ej4QwF-J #KoreSelfDefense #KravMaga #Halloween
If you didn't know.. the initial defense to a circular knife attack ("ice pick" attack) is the same as our "360" circular punch defense. There are some structural/movement similarities with those defenses and the high roundhouse kick defenses as well. Come out to class tonight to learn more! #KravMaga #SelfDefense
Last night we had our first extended #SelfDefense/#KravMaga class. It's 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm, with 2 parts. Part 1 (6:30 to 7:15) is for all of our adult students (all levels). Part 2 (7:15 to 8:00) is for our advanced adult students (typically P3+). This is ONE class, not two separate classes. What we work on in the 1st half will be relevant to the 2nd half. Last night was inside defenses. All of these defs have similar feet/body movements. The 1st half dealt with inside defs to strikes (typical insides, left on left, and forearm). For the 2nd part of class, we moved to weapons. One of the defs to a high straight stab is the forearm def to the outside of the channel. There is a diff compared to the forearm def to a strike in that, I'm not rotating my forearm as I come through. The forearm acts more like a strike (your ulna should hit their wrist area). Nuance is that I want to be able to get a monkey hook immediately after the deflection. Going inside the channel is similar (right handed attacker, defender uses their right arm and moves to their right), except I'm exchanging hands for a c-grip with my left during the initial part of the def. I did audible with the sticks. After we ran the knife stab, moving inside the channel, we went to long sticks with a belly stab (live side). The def hand exchange is similar to the high knife stab. Right handed attacker, I deflect the stick with my left hand, fingers down and as I move 45 degrees (in), I exchange my left hand for a right hand c-grip. We then went to short sticks and worked with minimal weapon exposed at the end, and lots of exposed weapon at the end. The attack is akin to "planting a flag" on someone's forehead. Part of the initial def to minimal weapon exposed is the defender striking the feeder's front elbow with their forearm. (Similar to high knife stab). For lots of exposed weapon, the soft side of the forearm is used against the weapon (palm faces the weapon). We didn't do the front gun def, but it was a great class. Some students were exposed to new defs last night, but we went through things they already knew, so the "leap" was manageable and less intimidating.
Can you believe it’s almost October?! To help you plan your week, check out our new Tuesday class schedule starting tomorrow, October 1st. Our 6:30 Advanced class is now an ALL LEVELS self-defense class followed by the Advanced class at 7:15. So come to striking then stay for Krav/Self-defense. And if you would like to watch the advanced class, you are always welcome to stay and hang out. Save this post, take a snap shot, or add it to your calendar now. See you on the mat! #keeptraining #selfdefense #kravmaga #korekravmaga
