It is a comprehensive system that prepares students to effectively neutralize any violent threat. Students quickly gain a high level of competence in all aspects of the use of firearms, becoming more highly trained than many firearm instructors. Students are also taught simple, effective Krav Maga techniques for unarmed defense against armed or stronger attackers. Krav Maga is known for its extremely efficient and brutal counter-attacks.The Israeli Method is designed to be as practical for off-duty police or civilians as it is for Special Forces operating behind enemy lines. It can be effectively used by an individual operating alone, a team of two, a SWAT team, or an infantry platoon.
