Self-Defense Against Bladed Weapon Attacks
On Sunday, 22 September 2024, starting at 10:00, a self-defense seminar on defense against attacks with sharp and bladed objects will take place at the training facility on Calea Lipovei / Strada Armoniei. The training will be led by Tamir Gilad, one of the world’s most renowned and sought-after Krav Maga experts.
A krav maga seminar is an opportunity to learn and apply techniques in a new environment, different from the training hall. It is a step closer to reality through location, atmosphere, and participants.

This type of scenario, involving bladed / sharp and cutting objects, is extremely dangerous, with an obvious risk of suffering serious injuries. This training is essential for the following reasons:
- Extreme danger: Attacks with bladed weapons are among the most dangerous self-defense scenarios, with high lethal potential. Participants will learn vital techniques to maximise their chances of survival.
- Speed of attack: Attacks with sharp objects can be extremely fast and difficult to anticipate. The training will focus on developing reflexes and reaction time.
- Variety of weapons: Aggressors may use a wide range of sharp or cutting objects, from knives to broken glass. Participants will learn defense principles applicable against various types of bladed weapons.
- The psychological aspect: Facing a bladed weapon can be extremely intimidating. Participants will learn techniques for managing fear and maintaining calm when confronted with this type of threat.
This training is part of a self-defense-packed weekend, within a 2-day seminar held to celebrate the 10th anniversary of our krav maga gym, KMTM. The combination of three training sessions over two days will provide you with comprehensive preparation for handling diverse and potentially lethal situations.
Participation is open to everyone, regardless of prior experience and physical fitness level!
