In this level of Practitioner II, we started to deal with attackers who are coming from the sides or from behind. With integrity, focus and concentration, you’ll be able to deepen your knowledge and acquire experience in Krav Maga. Imi has the slogan, “You must be so good so you don’t have to kill.” It means always do the correct thing at the correct time and place, whether you are civilian, a law enforcement officer, a military personnel, it doesn’t matter. What is your mission, what’s required of you is to do the best thing that you can do. What is needed to achieve your goals? If your goals are first of all to be able to defend yourself, to defend others, the next thing is naturally to excel, to improve yourself. Invest in yourself, train, it’s a matter of life and death but not only, it’s also a matter of wellbeing. Invest and train and strive for excellence.
