Successful Pressure Test

John Lacy — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 21:36:34 +0000

Congratulations to Maya and Mike on there successful Level I Test. They spent three hours (including test) with their classmates and instructor going over the curriculum. They both showed great poise and skill throughout the test. During the workshop, they had to do a large amount of physical training. So when the test was upon them, they were far from having fresh bodies to get them past the test. They had to rely on their training and technique and the will to never give up. I’m very proud of all that attended and gave maximum effort!

“From a Special Recon Soldier”

” I work as a bodybuard doing convoy protection and personal security detail in Iraq. I do much of my training at Beyond Fighting in Leeds when I’m home on leave. Urban Krav Maga’s Self Defense training is some of the most realistic I’ve experienced. Perhaps even more so than in my current position or as a Special Recon Soldier in the Army.

I would recommend Urban Krav Maga to anyone wanting incredible fitness and the best Self-Defense training I have ever gone through! Do your family and yourself the service of training with a Certified UKM Instructor.” Danny- Close Protection Operative-

Real Life Testimonial

Westphal — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 23:24:48 +0000

“I was walking through Marylebone Station and as I exited the station, I was asked by a man walking behind me whether I had any money. I said no. He persisted in his questions. I had a pregnant friend with me and was mindful of a situation occurring.

I turned to the man and responded negatively that I had no money. The man came closer to me. I put my hand on him (putting up “the fence”) and told him I didn’t want any trouble. He got annoyed. I asked him to calm down. At that point he asked me again for money and threatened me with a stabbing if I would not comply. I asked him whether he had ever had his hair in a ponytail in order to distract him, following quickly with an elbow strike to the face.

There was a tussle, I stuck my fingers in his eyes and disengaged. I made sure my friend was ok and then walked quickly back to my office entrance.

When interviewed by the Police I was positively commended by them on my pre-emptive behavior when threatened by a potential attacker, well known to them and our security.

From one lesson with Paul (Urban Krav, Kensington and Chelsea) I managed to employ the fence technique to gain space and protect myself and distract my attacker so that I could pre-empt his threat to stab me. Paul could well have saved my life.”
