4 Days "Stay Away" Krav Maga Course for Women Only in Marsascala, Malta

Facilities

The self-defense techniques and tactics of this Stay Away program have been developed since 1997 by the International Krav Maga Federation (IKMF) and deal with situations from a woman's daily routine, point out scenarios where a threat may appear and teaches, systematically, how to maintain your calm, defend yourself, and eliminate the danger.

Krav Maga courses for women focus on sexual assault scenarios and involve substantial mental training to enable the participants to foster self-confidence and prevent an assault from happening whenever possible.

Additional issues included in women self-defense have to do with home invasion, third side protection (protecting your children), and using common objects (keys, handbag etc.) to block the assailant and counterattack. Since 1997, over 30,000 women around the world have attended a Stay Away program.

Since its inception, the Stay Away program has evolved, but the core has remained constant. It tackles differences between attackers and women and focuses on women’s size and strength while giving paramount attention to mental tactics to prevent an attack.

The training will start at 9 a.m. on Friday, August 21 at IKMF's dojo in Marsascala (transportation will be provided from your hotel, departing at 8 a.m.). During the three days, training will be held from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., and from 1.30 p.m. to 5 p.m.

In addition to Krav Maga techniques, the following topics will be dealt with:

• The essence of danger
• The inner alarm
• How do men think?
• Principles of Krav Maga for women
• Rape drugs
• How to use common objects as weapons

Marsaskala, gathered around the head of a long, narrow bay, was originally a Sicilian fishing community: the name means "Sicilian harbor". Today, it is an increasingly popular residential area and seaside resort among the Maltese. It appeals because of its calmness, great restaurants, local feel, and bustling, boat-bobbing little harbor.

The nearby beaches of St. Thomas Bay and St. Peter’s Pool also attract many swimmers. Other than to chill out, Marsaskala does not offer much else. There are some historical towers worth a visit. Also chapels and salt pans that might be interesting. Overall, this is a village where one goes to relax.
