A730: Self-Defense: Conflict Resolution and Martial Arts in the Modern World. in Cascade! Winter 2011 (Jan. 25, 2011)
There are many martial art systems in the world, but when it comes to personal protection in a modern, urban environment, the Israeli Martial Arts stand out. As one of the most effective, intuitive, and comprehensive self-defense systems in the world, Krav Maga trains practitioners to avoid, prevent, and resolve conflicts. In this class, you will learn a number of basic martial arts techniques and defenses against various attacks (such as chokes and tackles). You will also learn theories about non-violent conflict resolution, and how you, as a martial artist, should understand your responsibilities and rights in self-defense. No prior martial art or athletic experience is required, and whether you have taken martial arts before or have never tried one out, you will be at home in this class. Everyone can learn self-defense techniques, and this class will give you tools to protect yourself, your family, and members of your community.
