Knife Defense Under Stress

SEE EVENT DETAILS
A practical progression from unarmed defense to knife-on-knife skill--built around the threats, stabs, and slashes that happen up close.
Knife Defense Under Stress is a 4-hour intensive built for the realities of close-range, urban knife violence--fast, chaotic, and often too messy for "perfect technique." You'll train a Forge blend of Krav Maga defense fundamentals, grappling-inspired control of the weapon arm, and Kali-influenced blade mechanics, progressing from unarmed defense into knife-on-knife skill.

Beginner-friendly, with logical layered progressions and advanced finishing sequences for experienced students who want deeper reps.

Who It's For
This workshop is for Krav Maga and practical self-defense students of all levels--Forge members and non-members welcome.

Beginners are welcome. The material includes layered progressions and optional advanced variations for experienced students.
