FAIRFIELD COUNTY, Conn. -- There is a trendy martial art -- it's called Krav Maga, it was developed by the Israeli Defense Force and you can learn it in Fairfield County.
Why learn Krav Maga -- which apparently means "hand-to-hand" combat in Hebrew? It's good exercise and, according to Darien Krav Maga, which teaches classes at 172 Heights Road, this martial art is "the most efficient self-defense system for real-life situations."
"As the no-nonsense fighting method of choice for many law enforcement agencies like the FBI, Krav Maga is known to be a particularly efficient way of kicking butt in hand-to-hand combat," say an article from MSNBC.com.
Krav Maga Worldwide says, this martial art is an "effective self defense system that emphasizes instinctive movements, practical techniques, and realistic training scenarios."
