NORTH IDAHO KRAV MAGA
A United States Krav Maga Association Affiliate
North Idaho Jiu Jitsu now has Krav Maga Self Defense classes. Krav Maga is an Israeli military martial art designed for real world situations that throw out the rules limited by sport based martial arts, and is adaptable to all abilities.
Basic & Advanced Programs
At North Idaho Jiu Jitsu, we offer both basic and advanced Krav Maga programs. The basic program is designed to teach you the fundamentals of the system, including stances, strikes, and basic techniques. The advanced program is for students who have achieved a yellow belt, and will focus on more complex techniques and scenarios.
Basic Krav Maga Starts at 5:30pm on Wednesday and ends at 6:30pm.
Advanced class is after basic at 6:30pm-7:00pm on Wednesday.
An additional day of training is available on Saturday morning from 10:00am-11:00am. Saturdays are also used for belt testing once eligible.
Basic & Advanced Punch Cards
The Krav Maga Program at North Idaho Jiu Jitsu uses a punch card full of techniques to give some guidance through the levels of proficiency. Two punches are required for each skill on the card to quality for a belt exam. We currently have two basic cards along with one more in depth advanced card.
Cards:
Basic Level One - A good Foundation of 37 techniques. -USKMA Yellow Belt
Basic Level Two - 24 additional Skills to complement basic level one. - USKMA Orange Belt
Advanced - Specialty techniques, weapon disarms and advanced Jiu Jitsu submissions for those very serious about self defense.
The goal of the punch card is to have a direction to work towards and a finishing line. We believe self defense doesn’t have to be a lifelong journey and if we only have you for a few months these would be the best moves to give you an edge. Be warned, you may just fall in love with martial arts as we have. It’s a great journey to stay fit and keep the mind sharp along with a community of friends.
Coach Steve
Our goal is to teach self defense to anyone willing to put in the effort, regardless of body type or physical ability. The classes are based on Krav Maga, the system developed for the Israeli Defense Forces and used by law enforcement and military units across the globe. It’s realistic, fast to learn, and we get to hit things and have fun! You will learn self defense and get a good workout: It’s the workout that can save your life!
