Thats good to know. Thanks
The school I atte:blob5: nd In Florida has Krav Maga. If you are in the leadership program you can take it at no extra charge.
I have been at my school for 2 years and we have always had the sword. Also I believe the certification for a Krav Maga instructor is one week. The Krav Maga taught is not like the Krav Maga that was recently shown on the discovery channel show fight quest
I doubt its mostly water. Its a good workout if anything
A hugh portion of this country is overweight which comes from the abundance of fastfood chains on every corner and the fast paced lifestyle most adults lead. It has nothing to do with the ATA program. I can train every day and I will still be overweight if my diet is poor.
As for everyone else who has not gone to an ATA school you should go to one and train for a month and then you would be better qualified to make judgements about the ATA and or the Krav Maga programs . Your information should be based on that alone and not from the posts on this webpage.:ninjadanc
I do realize that many people that post have been to ATA schools but I also believe that many have not and are just jumping on the bandwagon.
Anyway I belong to an ATA school about an hour north of Miami Lakes. I believe that Andy Silva passed away almost 2 years ago and his schools were bought by Chief Master William Clark who owns the school I belong to and the chain of schools called Karate America. He is also on the Masters council for the ATA:walk:
I am happy with my school so all is well.
ATA is quality instruction for Adults and Kids. They make people better citizens while teaching life lessions and some self defense. It is also lots of fun.
The ATA is teaching kids to standup for themselves . They are not breeding fighters or Coba Kai’s. See Karate Kid movie. Try a school. You may enjoy it
