Country:US
Creation's date: 1964
Creator: American karate practitioners
Description:Kickboxing started in the US during the 1970's when American karate practitioners became frustrated with strict controls on martial arts competitions that didn't allow full contact kicks and punches. Many questions were raised when the sport began about the high risk of injury. As a result, safety rules were improved and protective clothing was added. As this is a relatively new sport there are no long-term traditions. The sport has undergone changes and been refined during the last two decades. Competitors use sparring, kicks, punches, kick blocks, shadow boxing, and wood breaking that is learned and applied under professional instruction.

His journey lasted two years, at the end of which he arrived in Israel, entered the Haganah (the Jewish paramilitary organisation) where he taught the basic techniques of self-defence. He then continued his activities within Tsahal, the Israeli army. It was for Tsahal that for twenty years Imi perfected his system, while teaching instructors and members of the army's elite units.
Having been recognised by the Ministry of Education, Krav Maga was later integrated into civilian life, both in public and private institutions. Finally it has spread world wide, particularly in France and in the United States.
This system, Krav Maga, that Imi developed is based on moral and human values, which emphasise the importance of integrity, humility and respect for others.
