Palakol Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 (edited) ano mas madali krava maga o yaw yan? planning to take up martial artsKRAV MAGA - israeli combat art. strictly practical self defense. the only official gym is in san juan.YAW YAN - filipino martial art. the focus is mostly competition. branches in cubao, marikina/cainta, etc... what exactly are your intentions?

geneticfreak Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 ano mas madali krava maga o yaw yan? planning to take up martial arts the two martial arts are different and thus have differences in difficulty. krav maga is more reality based self defense which allows someone to use almost every kind of possible tactic to stave of an attacker. yaw yan is a striking martial art which can be used both in self defense and in sport application (such as in kickboxing or mma). other forms of yaw yan like ardigma or hybrid yaw yan have been used effectively in mma as it has moves to counter the techniques of bjj and the other grappling arts. krav maga on the other hand has no sport or competition application. i guess the right question for you to ask is not which of the two is easier it is 'what do you really want to learn it for?'. Are you planning to compete in mma or in other forms of martial arts competition or are you just looking for a practical method of self defense. Quote Link to comment

I tried aikido before when I was in college but didn't have the time to continue due to studies.i'd suggest a FMA chief, try arnis de mano or kali as some call it, really practical self defense at the same time you'd know what to do even without a stick Quote Link to comment
