Krav Maga Or Pepper Spray

Friday, May 23, 2008 16:41

Krav Maga Practitioner :: Gillan Divecha Pepper spray or OC (Oleoresin Capsicum), is a chemical compound that aggravates the sensitive membranes of the nose, throat and the eyes - where it could result in temporary blindness. Pepper Spray is widely used by security personnel for riot / crowd control and by individuals for personal protection. Pepper Spray has also seen success as a mode of defense against attacking dogs and wild bears. In “An Appraisal of Technologies of Political Control” published by The European Parliament Scientific and Technological Options Assessment, it is said that : "The effects of pepper spray are far more severe, including temporary blindness which last from 15-30 minutes, a burning sensation of the skin which last from 45 to 60 minutes, upper body spasms which force a person to bend forward and uncontrollable coughing making it difficult to breathe or speak for between 3 to 15 minutes."

Why Krav Maga??

Tuesday, March 11, 2008 16:15

Krav Maga Practitioner : Anoop Ramakrishnan March 11th, 2008 Learning KM has been one of the major decisions that I have taken in life and I can safely say that, it has been the best decision of all. One may ask, is a military based martial art relevant to a common man?? The answer is a big YES. How?? I shall tell you that. With a lot of untoward incidents happening all around us, the issue of safety has become paramount. Everyday we come across a few incidents that have resulted in loss to property or even worse, loss to life. A lot of those could have been avoided/minimized, with the knowledge of self-defense. That is where KM comes in handy, in real scenarios (more than any other martial art).
