Krav Maga & Combatives is a club of the Ukrainian Combatives Federation, which is engaged in the development and popularization of hand-to-hand combat, self-defense, survival techniques in extreme situations, as well as in modern society.
Combatives is a term for military-hand-to-hand combat techniques that formed around the beginning of World War II. Combatives of that time were built around techniques from judo, ju-jitsu, some Chinese systems, as well as principles taken from the criminal environment with an emphasis on simplicity and efficiency. Nowadays combatives is a set of techniques and methods of hand-to-hand combat, that are based on time-tested principles of the war years.
