At Krav Maga Alliance, we prepare for most bad real life situations and threats. An abduction just occured in Philadelphia. The crime was caught on camera, and shows just how horrible any given night can become. This is why we train!

A woman was just walking down the street at night, all alone, and an attacker abducted her. Crimes like this are why we at Krav Maga Alliance we have created realistic seminars, workshops, and regular training drills to help women fight against these kinds of attacks.
