Choose Between Two Options

Developed in the late 1940s and later adopted by the Israeli Defense Forces, krav maga condenses lessons learned on the battlefield into simultaneous offensive and defensive maneuvers. During one-hour classes, students fend off chokes, grapples, and punches often found in real-life attack situations, and mental exercises train their senses to be more aware of their surroundings. Students learn striking and grappling through sparring matches, and stress drills prepare the mind to perform under duress. The system's simple, explosive maneuvers are designed to work with each person's natural instincts, instead of their unnatural sixth sense.

Silverback Academy

Practicing martial arts for the past 20 years, Sean "The Silverback" Stoopman has earned master bodyguard instructor certification, a Brazilian jujitsu purple belt, and a first-degree black belt through Israeli Krav International. He now lends his notorious nickname and ample expertise to teaching classes at Silverback Academy with the aid of five other trainers, each with a litany of their own achievements.

The school's disciplines are split among the practical striking, locking, and stress tests of krav maga training, and the competitive submission grappling art of Brazilian jujitsu.

The Groupon Guide to: Being Chased by a Man with a Pitchfork

Uh oh, you've done it again. You've angered that old farmer. You're going to have to run if you don't want to end up in the hog trough tonight. Here's the plan:

  • Bust through the back doors of the barn and head east toward the cow pasture. The rising sun will temporarily blind the farmer, causing him to dramatically pause and survey the landscape before pursuing you.

  • Use the time you've bought to jump the cow fence and head through the pasture. Roll underneath one of the cows, causing it to stand up on its hind legs, lift up its udders, and say "excuuuuuse me!"

  • Look behind you to see that the farmer is now pursuing you in a pickup truck, waving his pitchfork out the window. Let him catch you with the pitchfork right under the strap of your overalls and carry you on the pitchfork for about 100 yards.

  • Flail your arms as you dangle from the pitchfork.

  • As the farmer approaches the hogs' mud pile—where he'll surely stop short, flinging you off the pitchfork and into the mud—grab on a low-hanging tree branch. Swing your body off the pitchfork and up onto the branch, so that you can blissfully wave as the farmer looks back at you in surprise and accidentally runs his truck into the mud.

"That darn trickster tricked me into mud-stickin' my truck!"
