Takedowns Workshop

Military and law enforcement operators need a uniquely different way to finish a fight/altercation compared to civilians. They don’t have the luxury of being able to leave the environment immediately as their role requires a need to capture or incapacitate.

This workshop explores the devastating takedowns of the Krav Maga system in a contextualised and scenario based way. Active shooters, threats of explosive devices, detaining violent offenders or softer approaches to mentally ill persons all require a way to control and decentralise a person for the safety of themselves, the Operator or the community.

Learn how to employ various takedowns when faced with difficult or life threatening situations that you just can’t run away from.  We will apply these techniques in close range combat, as counters to certain attacks, and as part of the finishing mode of some of our basic Krav Maga defences.
