What is the best martial art for self defense and causing the oponent harm quickly?
Krav Maga. It’s an Israeli self-defense system that focuses on eliminating a threat as quick as possible, and making sure you get out OK. You’ll do real life simulations, like maybe your class will go out in the parking lot at night and they’ll hide behind cars and come at you one at a time with different chokes, with knifes, etc, just trying to attack you. You’ll practice these moves with your eyes shut, so that way you don’t know when the attack is coming, which trains you good because if you know the attack is coming you don’t let it come, but if you don’t know, that’s a different story. In Krav, you learn techniques from many different martial arts that are used in ways to defend yourself. Many of the techniques are just additions to your natural reaction, which is why they’re so effective. Such as if someone pulls a gun on you, you put your hands up, which you would hopefully do anyway, from there you quickly turn your body and push the gun to the side while striking to the throat
