Krav Maga

[Jacob(smooth)]

My advice is to forget about Street combat situations

This doesn't make any sense. Unless someone is only interested in sports the combat style training is the best route to take.

The problem is that martial arts training of any flavour tends to give people confidence which makes them more likely to actually get into a fight. Hence I'm very skeptical about learning any method for Street combat, lest it contribute to the situation.

For me, a pragmatic combat art should be trained in plain clothes, without warm up, in a bar or on a street, and after the participants have had a few beers. That's the reality of street combat. What I don't like to see is people training something like krav maga and going out thinking they can handle themselves better than the 23 year old chap with no teeth who's been getting in bar fights since he was 16. He will know how to handle an adrenalin dump, tunnel vision, situational awareness etc. We generally don't.

The "calm down" domination technique is not part of krav maga though
It's just the way I was since the day I was born. One of thousands of reasons why I was accepted in special ops.
But people rarely fight people who are not afraid of them. So I never had to fight anyone.

Yes, I think I can tell that.

Wow. Born able to face down drunken louts and able to make perfect arguments. I bet the idf just snapped you up. I didn't even realise you were Jewish Btw!

You should consider a career as a doorman. Your domination technique sounds a very saleable skill!
