[@FreefIow]

YOO I know her, she was my teacher when I was little

[@anniedenison7760]

Awesome tips, thanks for sharing

[@ColoradoKravMaga]

Thanks for watching!

[@forsakenafterlife4585]

can you do a self defense armbar hold from mount position

[@ColoradoKravMaga]

We are doing mount position VERY soon! Make sure you sub so you don't miss it.

[@claudioolate2516]

I'm very ignorant about martial arts and stuff but, why make those sounds after every punch you throw? Is it something that you are taught or just a personal thing? ( Like i said, i really don't know)

[@deepaklather8487]

German suplex

[@Jazzman-bj9fq]

This is one of the few demonstrations that looks to be at least moderately effective. I think it would ring a little more true if you pick a fellow demonstrator with sufficiently larger size and strength. Yes, many women are taller and more athletically built but the real challenge is if you have a woman defender who is much smaller than the male attacker. Good demonstration!

I'm doing Krav Maga and found that when my male partner is wearing a cup, groin kicks don't seem
to work very well

[@ColoradoKravMaga]

Don't hurt your training partners lol! The groin kick doesn't end the fight it usually starts a fight (and gives you a split second to begin to end it with more combatives)

[@ashleejohnson2753]

Do you think a groin kick can be still effective through a cup?

[@ColoradoKravMaga]

It's still going to hurt pretty badly. Watch any UFC groin kick on TH-cam some of these guys take 5 minutes out of a professional fight after an *accidental* groin kick. Imagine hitting someone with intent. The risk of kicking a cup as hard as you can is hurting your shin. Just to reiterate you should not be trying to injure your training partners. They wear cups for safety.

[@ashleejohnson2753]

@@ColoradoKravMaga do you recommend working with pads instead of your partner for those types of kicks?

[@ColoradoKravMaga]

Yes we are always using a tombstone pad. It's a smaller version of a kick shield. You can also use a focus mitt or a kick shield.

[@aliasalias9768]

Awesome Krav Maga so cool

[@ColoradoKravMaga]

Thanks!

[@Campuska04]

I love Colorado Krav Maga, but there's no way this kick from behind possibly works against an uncooperative man 🤷‍♂️

[@ColoradoKravMaga]

It's a last resort. You're up in the air and you don't have a lot of options.

[@jefferyking8132]

I disagree, as a man training with women that I can easily pick up off the ground, when that heal scissors up it's a very effective strike. The two hardest kicks I've taken to the groin in class are doing bear hug with a lift as part of 'surprise' drill. Without properly wearing my cup, I would have been on my hands and knees for a long time.
