Cross Krav Maga is not a conventional Krav Maga system
It is a self-defence survival system that is based on Krav Maga that is designed to encourage the individual to use what works for them. We are all different in our size, strength, speed, agility and perceptions. Cross Krav Maga is designed to help even the odds between you and your attacker, it teaches key survival skills and how to react wh
en attacked, it will rapidly develop an awareness of what self defense works and what doesn’t. What’s the difference? Answer by CKM founder Keith Collyer
Many times I have been asked, what is the difference between our system and traditional Krav Maga. I was an Instructor with a large Krav Maga Organisation and found the technique driven system had flaws, yes I love some of the traditional Krav but felt that the system is getting very sports orientated and not so self-defense based. We teach a set of principles first and foremost before techniques, the reason for this is we want our instructors and students to have a flexible approach to their self protection. Cross Krav Maga is not a traditional Krav Maga System. At CROSS KM we do not have such a rigid syllabus as we want our instructors and students to react quickly and calmly to a rapid change of attack, with this in mind we teach these main principles, Three points of contact, relative position, simultaneous attack and defense and balance displacement this way our instructors can teach their students to always expect the unexpected and can react positively to situations presented.
