Even though movies can make street brawls look sexy, the reality of being in a physical fight is very different than what you see on screen. Today my guest Gershon Ben Keren talks about the misconceptions around fighting, how to assess dangerous situations, the best way to survive a potentially violent confrontation, and much more. Gershon Ben Keren is a 5th Degree Black Belt in Krav Maga, who has been training in the martial arts and self-defense since 1979. He has won regional and national titles in Krav Maga, regularly trained with the UK National Squad in the early 90’s, and in 2010, he was inducted into the Museum of Israeli Martial Arts in Israel. He now focuses mostly on reality based self-defense and personal protection, and is an elite trainer for civilians, law enforcement, and the military. All of that, and he has a master’s degree in psychology and has written two books. Show notes: http://www.thedistilledman.com/010. Please leave a review at http://www.thedistilledman.com/itunes.
