The RTMA Krav Maga Club was introduced this year and has quickly grown in popularity. Krav Maga can be translated as “contact combat”—krav (קרב) means combat and maga (מגע), contact. It is a self-defense program developed for the military in Israel that consists of a wide combination of techniques sourced from Aikido, Judo, boxing and wrestling, along with realistic fight training. The school’s training encourages students to avoid confrontation. The club also spends time learning how to focus one’s energy and use discipline throughout his day.
