Anyone Krav Maga or Systema training?

[palepainter]

I am deciding which program to get into for fitness and more modern defense training. I have had a few years of Taekwondo, but am looking for something different. Anyone have any experience with either program? Would love to get input.

Any sort of self defense will be good for ya. I've never used Systema, but KM is a lot of fun.

I took a free class in KM and damn near died !! Age and COPD were not good partners. Aggressive self defense discipline based on Israeli training I believe. I see your in Boulder-theres a studio in Broomfield if your interested.

IMO most american KM facilities are a little gimmicky.

If you can find a place to learn combat-sambo, i'd say that's the best, but Systema is probably pretty decent as well.

You could always just go for a standard muay-thai/jiu-jitsu base and branch out from there.

is there still a KM place in Castle Rock?

I've been thinking about it and once life settles down a bit - kids go back to school - I'm thinking of doing something like that.

Yes, and that location is the real deal. Rocky Mountain Krav Maga, has a really good program, and are not "gimmicky". I trained at their Parker/Quincy location for awhile, and that is good stuff.

I JUST found out there is a BJJ location right here in Parker, that i'm going to look into. Apparently the instructor is quite the Bad Ass. Was a Captain in the Marine Corps, and ran the Marine Corps Martial Arts program, along with many other Martial Arts accomplishments. I tried to stop by last night, but he was locking up shop as I pulled up. Here is the link to his site. http://authenticbjj.com/
