Complete Krav Maga: The Ultimate Guide To Over 230 Self-Defense And Combative Techniques
Complete Krav Maga lays out the curriculum for the first five levels of Krav Maga. If you are a newbie, this book serves as an essential reference guide to reinforcing the techniques that you will learn in your self defense and fighting classes. It will also give you a future look into what you can expect as you progress up the ladder of Krav Maga mastery.
In the Foreword written by MMA legend, entrepreneur and Hollywood movie star Bas Rutten, Bas shares his story of how he became introduced to Darren Levine and Krav Maga Worldwide and why Krav Maga has all the answers for street defense.
The Krav Maga Belt System consists of six levels - yellow belt, orange belt, green belt, blue belt, brown belt and black belt. Complete Krav Maga focuses on the first five levels of Krav Maga self defense, progressing from yellow belt to brown belt.
While the Krav Belt System uses colors to designate the different levels of mastery, no actual belts are given to adult students like in traditional martial arts dojos. Rather, after each level you successfully master, you will receive a diploma signed by your local Chief Instructor and US Chief Instructor Darren Levine.
If
you are fortunate enough to take classes at a local Krav training
center, you will notice the different degrees of belts referred to as
“Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4 and Level 5” by both instructors and members.
