This usually comes from the instructor who has worked with the student the most and has helped them develop within the krav maga belt system and krav maga level system. There are occasions when a student has reached the requisite number of classes and hours of training required to test but they will be informed by the instructor that additional time training and work in some aspects of the level are required before that student can test.
Level tests or, if you prefer, belt tests are physical and mental challenges that require intense effort and preparation. The student must meet the requisites AND demonstrate mastery of the material in classes in order to take their test, earn the right to train in the next level, and earn their belt for that level. At Level 1 students are essentially a white belt working toward the test that will earn them a yellow belt. This is not considered one of the belts that students can earn within the krav maga belt system however they have earned it by starting training.
A student in Krav Maga Level 1 is learning and training and pushing to be stronger and safer, which is, in itself, an accomplishment. Level 1 training focuses on three things; fundamentals, fundamentals, and fundamentals. Students learn how to get into, and move while in, an effective fighting stance. Students train on straight punches, hammer fists, palm heel strikes, eye gouges, throat strikes, front kicks to the groin, front kicks with the ball of the foot, round kicks, basic positions and movement while on the ground, as well as defenses vs.
This is the essential tool-kit that a student needs to progress within the Krav Maga Worldwide system and to be fundamentally effective at defending themselves. Students are introduced to the principles of Krav Maga Worldwide self-defense system, which they will continue to see as they get to higher levels. Students must train for at least four months in Level 1, and attend at least 40 Level 1 classes, in order to be eligible to test into Level.
At Level 2 students have earned a Yellow Belt by achieving the requisites and passing their Level 1 test. The next belt that can be earned is an Orange Belt.
Krav Maga Worldwide Level 2 training starts to become more technical than Level 1 by introducing additional punches like hooks and uppercuts as well as more intense self-defense techniques like defenses against bearhugs, chokes with pulls, and the basics of being on the ground with an attacker.
These ground techniques include escaping from the full mount position, and defending against being choked while mounted. Sparring is introduced in Level 2 via very controlled drills that build the skills needed to deal with a live, resisting, attacker. Working to achieve the next level is highly dependent on several things; how long you have trained and how often you train each week. Krav Maga has different levels that students can participate in a test to advance from one level to the next.
Instead, students receive a signed certificate from Krav Maga Worldwide. Each level has its own difficulties, so as a student goes from one level to the next, they can expect the level of difficulty and cumulative knowledge to increase.
Each belt signifies a different level of training and takes its own amount of time to achieve. The time it takes to master each level is always an estimate as each student will advance at their own pace. Individual physical and mental readiness plays a large role in how long it takes for a student to advance.
Level 1: Testing for Yellow Belt Level 3 — 4 months. There is also a category above Expert which is known as the Master level. Very few have reached this level and usually the people who have dedicated their whole lives contributing or developing the future of Krav Maga.
The amount of time it takes to move from one belt color to the next depends from school to school. In general, however, it normally takes years to move up within the Practitioner category and no less than 2 years in the Graduate category. In order to qualify to wear the Green and Blue belt and officially became a Graduate, a Practitioner must not only pass a test showing mastery of all the Practitioner skills and techniques but must also complete a syllabus proving he or she has learned everything within the Practitioner level.
Civilian instructors are often Graduates wearing brown Krav Maga belts. These are the people who have passed the instructor examination, meaning all instructors are Graduates but not all Graduates are qualified instructors.
People who have advanced to the Expert category and now wear black Krav Maga belts are so advanced that they normally teach military institutions and law enforcement academies. These are the instructors that teach the Israeli soldiers how to fight using advanced war combat skills of Krav Maga instead of the traditional techniques used for competitive sports.
Masters of Krav Maga, who also wear honorary black belts of a slightly different design, normally do not teach per se but instead run their own school.
Very few have reached this level and are normally the first few followers of the art since it officially began in the s. One other thing about getting the black belt and advancing to the Expert level of Krav Maga is the fact you have to be invited. Yellow Belt — This group learns techniques such as self-defenses against kicks and chokes. Orange Belt — This group learns more advanced strikes, kicks and self-defense techniques including basic unarmed defenses against attackers armed with a weapon i.
