Introduction

Welcome to Masada Tactical and Israeli Combat System, an effective and practical martial art designed for real-life self-defense situations. Israeli Combat System is not just a martial art; it’s a way of life that empowers individuals with the skills and confidence to protect themselves and their loved ones.

Understanding Israeli Combat System and Krav Maga

Krav Maga, which translates to “contact combat” in Hebrew, was developed in the 1930s by Imi Lichtenfeld, and it has since become one of the most popular self-defense systems in the world. Krav Maga is known for its simplicity, effectiveness, and adaptability to various situations. Israeli Combat System was developed to embrace the benefits of Krav Maga while responding to areas or gaps for individuals needing “real life” self-defense training. Unlike traditional martial arts, Krav Maga and Israeli Combat System focuses on practical techniques that can be used in real-life scenarios, making it an ideal choice for anyone looking to improve their self-defense skills.
