About Krav Maga
Master Dave Sealey is also a 2nd level instructor and Honorary UK President in WKMA Krav Maga which has allowed the club to naturally move into self defence as well as Tae Kwon Do. Master Dave Sealey has taken the powerful low kicks from Tae Kwon Do and introduced them into Krav Maga to create “Hosinsool”, which is Korean for “self defence”. The result is an effective self defence system that now longer requires you to learn the patterns usually associated with Tae Kwon Do.
This has been very popular for the students as GTKD as it covers many defence moves against an array of attacks, including gun and knife attacks.
Krav Maga or “contact combat” (Israeli translation) is a non-competitive tactical self defence system which was developed in Israel. It combines a number of sports and martial arts including boxing, Muay Thai, Wing Chun, Jiu-Jitsu, wrestling and now Tae Kwon Do.
Krav Maga has gained a reputation as an no-nonsense and extremely efficient form of defence that has been developed for real-world situations.
The methods used are on the whole simple to learn and execute and with some practice it is a suitable self defence system for men, women, young and old.
