Wim Demeere's Blog - Podcast episode 42: Interview with Tammy Yard McCracken

It took more time than I would have liked, but here is the interview I did with Tammy Yard-McCracken. She is a psychotherapist, Krav Mage instructor, Violence Dynamics instructor and much, much more. I very much enjoyed talking to her about her approach to teaching self-defense and everything else we got to cover.

  • What women face in South Africa (complete opposite of statistical likelihood of experiencing violence in the US)
  • Must-know strategies women need to have
  • “We’ve been so, so deeply socially programmed for so many centuries [about] what we’re supposed to be versus what we actually ARE – which is [that] we have massive super-powers and whatever it takes to give yourself the opportunity to find out that that’s TRUTH… that’s what you should be doing.”

TRAINING SCHEDULE

View Full Schedule

Krav Maga is based on simple principles and instinctive movements. This reality-based system is designed to teach street-tested self defense in the shortest amount of time possible.

Learn to defend against common chokes, grabs, and bearhugs, as well as weapons such as guns, knives, and sticks. Equally important, Krav Maga teaches you to function during the stress and psychological trauma of a sudden/violent encounter. You will also learn how to gain power over your own fight/flight responses so you can choose the correct solution to any situation.

Kore Krav Maga features Israeli trained and certified Instructors with direct Lineage to the founder, Imi Lichtenfeld (Sde-Or).

We invite you to train with the most dynamic, practical, and easily learned self-defense system in Loudoun County. Kore Self-Defense & Krav Maga is committed to providing the most up-to-date self-defense training possible. The instructors continuously research training methodologies & trends in violence to ensure Kore’s curriculum is effective and relevant.

Sign up for a 3-class trial and see for yourself. You won’t be disappointed.”
– Christopher Derry

deniz-karadeniz “I’ve been going to Kore Krav Maga for over a year now mainly attending their diverse classes, one day doing fitness, one day kick boxing, one day practice etc. All the instructors are true professionals and enjoy what they are doing. Since they get so much of the excitement, they teach you to have fun while learning to defend yourself. I was so impressed with the process, I had my son start their kids class.”
– Deniz Karadeniz

angel-donn “I came here once on a free class and I have been coming back constantly eager to learn more! I know how to somersault now, defend when attackers are coming from behind and front, attacking, blocking, etc. I would recommend this to young children and adults because this is such a comfortable environment.”
– Angel Donn

michel-kim-van-essen “Awesome classes, legit organization and instructors that not only care about form and technique but also treat you like a person and are thoughtful about avoiding injuries.”
– Michel and Kim van Essen
