Hi Mark,
Welcome to the forum, How do you find MMA with your background of Krav Maga, do you think they compliment each other or would you say they are entirely different?
I did try Krav Maga a few years back but it wasnt for me, I found it a bit rehearsed? To be fair I didnt give it much of a chance but it seemed very, "you throw a punch with you left hand, then i ll duck this way and try to stab you with my right hand then you block like this etc etc.. It seemed like if you did actually get into a real situation, you would be buggered if i didnt go the way you had practised? Maybe thats a very ignorant view of Krav Maga but that was the impression i got form my short time doing it. I prefer MMA because its a bit more involved, I teaches you to take the punches, kicks and elbows etc and learn to deal with them instead of just trying to dodge everything which seems a bit unrealistic?
Id be interested to hear your views on both sports.
Anyway hope to see you around here often.
