Check out this video of Georgia Tech Alpha Chi Omega’s Epsilon Phi chapter doing some Krav Maga during our self-defense sisterhood retreat! Real. Strong. Women.

Krav Maga, meaning “contact combat,” is a non-competitive tactical martial arts system developed by the Israeli military. It is intended to be used by people of all different strengths, body styles, and skill levels since the country requires mandatory military enlistment from all citizens.

Krav Maga encourages students to avoid confrontation. If this is impossible or unsafe, it promotes finishing a fight as quickly as possible.Students learn to defend against all variety of attacks and are taught to counter in the quickest and most efficient way.
