I really wanted to find a school that focused on strong practical self-defense techniques. Being a woman and living in a city area made me realize how important it is to be able to protect myself. Krav Maga Boston was the only school I found that really focused on self-defense. Through the school, I’ve learned not only the basic combatives, but have also worked with possible scenarios, ground work and weapon techniques. But being a part of the school has also given me back so much more. It’s challenged me both physically and mentally, and though it I’ve learned that I’m much more capable than I originally thought. I’ve pushed my body beyond what I initially thought possible. I’ve learned to be aggressive, to never give up. But perhaps, most importantly I feel more empowered and confident about myself.
