Krav Zayin: Weapons Skills
Krav Zayin (Zah-Yeen) or "Weapons Combat" is a system that utilizes ancient Biblical weapons in a modern context. Weapons such as the Stick, Knife, Machete and Staff are all detailed in the Holy Scriptures as implements of warfare common to the Israelites of the time. In the 1940's these and other techniques were further developed and integrated into the style known as Krav Panim-el-Panim (Kapap), "face to face combat". In this unique 2 Disc training program students will learn to utilize these weapons safely and effeciently in a manner that will produce the most results with the least amount of instruction, typical of most Krav Maga style training. This instructional course follows the Hunt Survival Krav Maga Basic Skills Series.
Wilderness Combatives
The Hunt Survival Wilderness Combatives program introduces learners to the skills and fighting techniques utilized by Frontiersmen, Pioneers and Native Americans that pressed toward the Westward Expansion of the early United States in this 3 disc series. Weapons such as the Bowie Knife, Gun Stock Warclub, Rope and Rifle all played important roles in the daily life of those forging the frontier- they served as tools of protection and survival. The techniques within this program have been recreated from photos, descriptions and details from various historical accounts and have been adapted to fit within a traditional martial arts system that will be familiar to anyone interested in learning some new and unique combative skills.
Krav Maga Basic Skills
The Hunt Survival Krav Maga 4 DVD Basic Skill Series will train you in the core self-defense skills needed to survive a street fight and advance in rank with Hunt Survival Krav Maga.
Krav Maga is the official self defense system of the Israeli Defense Forces and many U.S. law enforcement agencies. Krav Maga emphasizes easy-to-learn techniques that have been battle-tested in real, life threatening confrontations. Unlike competitive martial arts, where limits are placed on the type of techniques used or the areas targeted, Krav Maga truly has no limitations. Groin shots, eyes gouges, throat strikes, and face rakes are all fair game. Perhaps the most unique aspect of Krav Maga is its emphasis on aggressiveness, sticking to the goal no matter what, even when it is hard, even when you feel you have nothing left, and a no compromising attitude towards the enemy. The goal: Survive
Within each of these training levels students will gain the skills needed to protect themselves and progress in rank. In the Basic Skill series developed for our Civilian Instructors Program, you will learn the strikes, kicks, blocks, and other aggressive, survival driven self-defense techniques needed to overcome an enemy with nothing but your bare hands!
