What are Krav Maga classes like?
If you’re thinking of taking up krav maga classes then you’re probably interested in exactly what goes on in them. I can only speak from my experience as naturally the exact nature of the training will vary depending on where you train. A typical class begins with a brisk warmup, this can take the form of stretching, various ‘games’ to get the heart pumping, slow fighting (using combinations of combatives either against an imaginary opponent or a partner or the whole class even!) and lots of conditioning excercises such as press ups, sit ups, squats etc. The instructors usually find plenty of ways to mix things up so that the warmup is both interesting but also physically taxing. Don’t worry though, if you’re not in the best shape no one will shout at you if you can’t do every excercise, do as much as you can. Krav maga is supposed to be inclusive, for all to be able to learn regardless of age, strength or gender. From then on there are any number of possible drills that will be worked
