I purchased this set of DVDs. I never received them and complained a number of times with no success and never received my money back. I will never purchase anything again from Amazon!!!

If you ever wanted to learn how to do EFFECTIVE self-defense in any situation, Krav Maga is the way to go. It's great exercise and trains you through every technique used to get out of a dangerous situation.

Krav Maga is a peerless martial art in the modern world. The content in the DVDs is informative and,in my opinion, worth the money. It's realistic and easy to follow.

I want to echo the sentiments of the previous reviewer. He is correct on all points.
I like Krav Maga for its simplicity and effectiveness. Although more popular as a self-defense form here than in Israel, it has proven its effectiveness in many confrontations as an amalgamation of boxing, jujutsu and weapons systems. Quite Nice.
The dvds are high quality, but there is no book, as advertised. The scenarios are very real, common and taught clearly. The price is very fair, too.
If you like this, you might want to check out Bas Rutten's dvd on street fighting and the whole catalogue of Systema DVDs (Russian Martial Art by Vladimir Vasiliev).
Safe training. Enjoy!
The basics of krav maga September 23, 2004

This is a set of 5 DVD's that include the basics of krav maga self defence system. Krav maga is considered to be one of the most realistic self defence systems around, as the approach of the system is to concentrate on realistic self defence techniques, instead of sport-like aspects. I have practiced Krav maga for about 6 months now, and I purchased this set to support my training. Therefore, I had the chance to see how this instruction compares to the hands-on instruction I receive in my Krav maga class.
Generally speaking, the instruction in the films is good (or even very good). There are some techniques that are not taught in very detailed manner, but generally the instruction is good. There are also some techniques I found less than realistic for real life self defence, but generally the techniques are realistic. The techniques vary in difficulty from 1st degree (basic) techniques upward. I don't know at what level the most advanced techniques are, but I know that there is at least one 5th level technique included. On several occasions, the instructors mention that there will be more films with more advanced techniques.
The production of the films is generally speaking OK. The films have been filmed with only one camera, but usually that is enough. There are enough repetitions and narration in every technique to make it possible to understand the techniques. On top of that, they have broken most of the techniques down into learning stages, to further ease the learning. On some commercials, they mention that the set includes written instructions of every technique. There is no booklet included, however, as the instructions are written on-screen.
The set is available also on VHS, but DVD version has some extra material. Usually this means two extra techniques (there is no extra material on the Introduction film). The set includes five films: Introduction (the history of Krav maga), Basic combatives (the basic techniques), The best defense (defense against unarmed attack), In the line of fire (defense against handguns) and On the edge (defense against knife attacks). As the films are sold also separately, I have written more detailed reviews for each film separately.
