Children anda learning martial arts

I'm in agree with you...when I lived in the conutry where I was born I helped my "sensei" in teaching children karate and they where so kind!
sorry can you tell me something more abput Krav Maga?

Sure:) Krav Maga has only been around for about 60 years and is Israeli. It was devised by a man called Imi sde-Or (Lichtenfeld), who was a Jew living in Slovakia and he put it together to defend himself during war time. It is made up of a lot of different styles, boxing, muay thai, ju-jitsu, probably a few others but has evolved it's own style.

There are 3 grade sections - practioner, graduate and expert, each of these has 5 levels to them. I'm only at P2 level, but I have a grading soon, so I will be a P3 hopefully.

I like it because it is an easy style to learn and doesn't need a high level of fitness or strength to do it. If there's anything else you want to know, then just ask:)

so it should be very interesting!!! I have not understood very well how is the belt system altough....I'm black belt of karate and blue of tae kwon do, and the system is also similar in judo, I've never heared about the system of krav maga

It is different to belts. We receive a patch to wear on our trousers, that is the colour of our level for example I wear a yellow patch with one black line. That tells everyone that I have passed my first grade, which is practioner 1. When I pass my next grade it will still be yellow but with two black lines and I will still be a practioner.

Once I've passed 5 practioner grades then I start on the Graduate grades (5 again), which are blue with the black lines. Then finally Expert (5 again). The top grade is master but I doubt I'll get that far.

We also have a Krav passport, which we record our grades in, so that if we go to another club, we can prove that we have the grades we say we have.

Yeah, I agree with your opinion abouy pepole who play martial arts...
But why didn't have any chance? Didn't your relative want you to play them?
When I was a little girl happen something similar to me: I was about 4 whenm I began asking my parents to make me do Karate, but didn't want because I was little and girl: they believe I could hurt myself.
So they try to make me do other sports or playing piano, but I always said no...so when I was 13 my father enrolled me to a karate course!!!!

I really have no chance to learn any martial arts. Firstly, I was born in the countryside where I could not find any related clubs. Secondly, the financial condition of my family made me have no financial ability to afford the tuition. Thirdly, my family believed that what I learnt in class was enough to me. Now, I can find a club and I can afford the lessons of martial arts, but I'm too old to learn some to be a great master. Maybe when I retire, I will learn Taichi.

I'm sorry that in past you couldn't learn more martial arts, but I think it's never too late!!!! I'm 27 and I'm managing to learn kung fu because I discover that here in my country there's a club where learn shaolin

Yes, I'm in agree with you...when I believe that what you said is in common with all martial arts, even if they're chinese,japaneese or other!!! do you think the same?
