The Fourth Rule of Street Defence: Keep It Simple! Posted by Christopher Allen ©Tring Martial Arts Academy LLP Under extreme stress, any technique that involves more than two gross-motor skills will likely fail.

At Tring Martial Arts we encourage simplicity. Simplicity is key to the success and widespread appeal of Krav Maga. Most of the techniques we teach are universal. They work when performed with your left or right hand and to the front and back. It’s a universal solution to a variety of problems, which is important because under stress, most people are limited to performing simple, quickly accessed tasks.
