The old saying is , the best form of defence is ATTACK. You have this spot on. Great lesson, thanks.

Cause Pain!

Finally!! A selff-defense video for the Hard of Hearing and those with ADS.

Professor David spot on as usual!!

Vee AJ JuJitsu is much Smarter Self Defense. Thank you Professor David and Shihan Kenny.

1 word, FEAR! that's stopping the attacked from attacking the attacker. Afraid, IF, I don't get this right, this would be my ass. that's my opinion. Great video again.

It has never made sense to me to engage in wrestling when defending one's self. I'm not trying to gun wrestle, knife wrestle, or baton wrestle. I'm going to attack and injure. Period. I'm not wrestling. I'm not doing Krav Maga or Kalah. I'm attacking and injuring to debilitation.

Prof you need a standing ovation on this one👏👏

Target Focus Training also stress step to the outside apex of the strike and attack, attack,. Grabbing the clothes brilliant. Your the real deal!

OH HE'S DEFINITELY WATCHING, MAYBE HE LEARNED SOMETHING. AS USUAL MAKES PERFECT SENSE TO ME!

What an amazing and yet educational session by the master of self-defense. Please share this great content, especially with family and friends. It will be best present you ahve ever gifted.

That was superb best self defence instructor and instructionals 190%

Outstanding Life Saving Self Protection Techniques

You hit it spot on. I'm a little guy.

Doctor is so right, all common sense.

Thank you, You are one of the best teachers I met in 40 years.

You guys are amazing, thank you for all of your information and efforts.

WOW, Simple stuff yet EFFECTIVE for regular people.. Thank you Professor David and Sensi Kenny👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Be generous with the pain!

Very helpful professor James!!!

You make great sense. Love your personality and delivery!! Straight and to the point and filled with excitement!!

I see a lot of Aikido principles in the principles. I have an Aikido background. I see weaknesses in Aikido also, but this scenario, Aikido would work. Much love and respect to Professor David and Shihan Kenny.

Amazing cause pain!!!

Recognizing the psychological weaknesses of non-highly trained combatants and adjusting the techniques to work for them is impressive. Please open a Toronto Canada location so I can train. (7 martial arts studied, but despite this I haven’t found such practical techniques being offered.)

Top dogs

Motion causes motion this is really good Gross motor skills keep up the good work

Pain hurts!

This is real!

I'm new to the channel and appreciate these lessons. I am a 3rd degree brown belt in karate that hasn't practiced in years. The 2 videos I have watched really struck a cord with me because I feel the mainstream karate schools are setting people up for a false sense of security. While they train people to throw kicks and get them limber enough to do so I think a large majority would not perform well in a street fight. While my sensei is a bad dude he has eaten, breathed, drank and slept karate for decades and I would hate to see what happened to the guy who attacked him, but to teach techniques where you block a single punch and counter is grossly inaccurate. I have been a few fights in my life and there has never been a situation where someone threw a single punch and left it hanging out there while you go to work on them. There is a fury of punched grabbing trying to get you on the ground on top of you to pound on you. I feeling what you are covering here is much more realistic view of how fights really happen and ways to attack and survive in real world situations. Please keep the content coming.

Well demonstrated , i remember how prof vee used to do techniques on you being a small guy vs a big guy , all blessings

Good stuff

Not only the weapon but this position technique can also expose your liver been punched, liver shots are very painful. See - #14:18

I agree that if you are in a position to have to defend against an attacker, you have to act with 100% effort; no quarter given. Never be the easy target.

Turn your speakers down in the room, when you're recording. It's feeding back. For the video, you don't need to have your speakers on.

Excellent information!

Preach

Cool! Attack!

Amen.

Solid, awesome breakdown! Love the energy and positivity.

Love the lesson. If I ever come to NY. I know where I M going

I think there are now 40k people now calling Krav Maga "Kav Magra"

All makes sense.

How to think. Thank you.

6/1/24 Viewing and workout; loved it!

you make a lot of sense.......thankyou for the lesson..........i wish i met you thirty years ago........great vid

Makes sense.

Well done sir peace

Great work professor David psychological along with the physical aspect !

Where can I find that head gear?

"Kenny has the head gear for a reason" ...oh shit.

Evades and Strike

🎉😊awesome technique.

Never a dull moment.

Yesss Sirrr!!!

Again, good expose of other arts dangerous lack of praticality and full effectivness. I was a little confused, though, about running around an attacker close quarters who's swinging a bat with full force. Can the feet and body spiral around faster than the attackers' two arms swinging? Jumping and spinning out the way, outside reach of a swinging bat, yes, but close quarter spinining? I'm not sure about that.

Good Movement

I like the other guy's way but your way is much better and effective. Not saying that his way isn't effective but your way gets the job done quicker.

great video it explains everything; keep it simple , especially when you are not a fighter or martial artist

Legends

Thank you professor David

Why do people like hugging the arm so much? I see that and think the attacker would kick out my knees, and take my back to stab me from behind with a knife unseen but produced into his left hand. That is what I worry about. I have trained FMA (PTK, Abantu Academy, Wing Chun Kali Systems) and have been avidly watching Vee A J videos since 2008.

Excellent video!

Thank you for for all comments, I can know who he is because I was watching a martial arts performance on stage from clubs all over. His clubs came on stage all with black uniforms. When his turn to show his performance, he poked a coke can with one finger right in. When I saw that? I said, dude get away from that guy. If I was young, I will attend his class. God bless you, sir.

thanks

Why not Kenny!? Because Kenny doesn't want a broken arm.

great as usual! Is there any VAJ in Australia?

Wonderful class. Prof and kenny

Thank you for the lesson

Best video ever!

All real,,,all the time.

I love your style!

Good video

Nicely done ✔️ 👏🏾

Brilliant. Thank you!!

Loved it thanks !

Great video

nice

Keep in mind, you are the enemy of your adversary. You, are the enemy.

Thank you for your videos. Just happened to find you on my phone. I'am 72 years old. Some meth head came up to my car(window was down),and swung at me.luckily missed. I drove away. What would you of done? What can a 72year old do to protect himself and win a fight? I'am in pretty good shape for my age.

I really like your videos, but this one I disagree on. One crucial point missed out by the krav guy video, was a total absence of blocking the bat arm with a double block. You need to do a double block on the arm to stop the bat, not just throwing the upper arm over the bat arm. Doing that you are already in infight and you are not positioned to strike the way you show. Shortest time to followup with a strike is right hand karate style sideways to the attackers right hand side of the neck, temporarily (or permanent😳) blocking the artery to the brain. That is the proper krav technique on this and not the one showed initially in this video. If there was no need for a double block of the bat arm, I would agree with you.

The attacker could also have access to a knife for his left hand.

Prof David, I’m just curious how big y’all are. You don’t look small. Kenny doesn’t look small. You guys might qualify as “bigger dudes” , esp Kenny. Your advice is meant for big and not big people, and I appreciate that! Just curious.

I made a list of books, about Disabled Combat, for self defense: MA SIRR THE GUIDE TO MARTIAL ARTS: ALSO FOR DISABLED & AGED Chris McNab Martial Arts for People With Disabilities (Martial and Fighting Arts) Tank Todd Wheelchair Self Defence Ted H Gordon Cane Jitsu Defense: For Healthy People; Suitable For All Balogun Ojetade Alabalase: An Afrikan Warriors’ Guide for the Differently-Abled

PAY ATTENTION! "Nice Hook"!

Enjoy your videos your videos I know he's an actor but what do you think about Bruce Lee's. Techniques ? Lol

Well said sir, personally I don’t see Krav Maga working against a street fighter

11:29

You can not move your whole body faster than the swinging bat.

I disagree about Krav Maga not working in a street fight. I think it's badly trained sometimes. And I'm not a Krav Maga enthusiast like I use to be

Hi Professor David, Love the Video thanks, one question? I'm not a fan of locks and or any restraining moves, for good reason from bitter experience! One move I was taught back in Judo in the '60s and then Jujitsu/karate in the early '80s both were self-defence orientated and not towards competition. In a situation like this, we were taught to move to the outside with an upward Block, restrain the arm across your chest and just break it with your body weight. I haven't seen this move, shown on any site I've watched. Would this be considered too aggressive these days?
