This is the program you saw advertised in Black Belt and other magazines. Unlike the complete F.I.G.H.T. series that includes a t-shirt and manual, this only includes the 3 DVDs. It doesn't matter if they are armed, bigger than you, or more skilled. This is what the Israeli military teaches its Special Ops teams, turning ordinary civilians into devastating hand-to-hand combat fighters. It is all you need to survive just about anything the world can throw at you. Best of all, you don't need tremendous strength or ability to get capable. They will show you how to deal with attackers with guns and knives. They will show you how to get to a point of reference- that is a position you feel 100% comfortable with- in just 2 or 3 steps, regardless of how the attack started. And, once you get there, you will do the same things every time. Things you will become proficient at. The series is designed in a teaching format and is of excellent quality. No matter what your background, you will learn valuable new techniques of self-defense designed to work even in the most extreme circumstances. Don't wait another day to get this important information.

Summary: Good Resource
Comment: These 3 DVD's present the subject matter well. Hagganah is very simmilar to Krav Maga and the whole concept is well presented by Mike,
Worth buying if you can get hold of it.

Summary: Haganah system in DVD
Comment: This set of 3 DVD's includes the complete haganah self defence system. You can use the films by itself, but the set is best when used with the haganah textbook.
Haganah is self defence system that has been largely influenced by krav maga. All of the techniques are combat proven, and the system is being constantly evaluated and updated. What makes haganah different from other martial arts is that you don't have to study several years until you can reach the more advanced techniques. Haganah training is based on military training principles, where you train all of the techniques in rotations, each of the rotations taking few months to run through. After you have gone through one rotation, you have been introduced to all of the techniques, and after few rotations, you begin to master them.
Another aspect unique to haganah is thing called point of reference (POR). This means that no matter how your opponents attacks, your aim is to end up in one of three positions relative to your attacker, and after that you have three options (incapacitating, killing or taking into custody), depending what you want to accomplish.
The haganah system is designed so that you can learn all the moves and techniques from the book and film, therefore you don't necessarily need a teacher (although having one wouldn't hurt). The techniques are simple, and because the POR concept, almost all of the techniques end in the same way, so that it's even more easy to learn.
The first DVD includes the basic principles of the haganah system. The second DVD has the unarmed combat techniques, and the third DVD includes defences against knife and gun attacks. The same information is included in the textbook, but the techniques are far easier to learn by watching the film. There are some minor differences (mainly in details) with DVD's and the book. In these situations I have follower the information given in the films. The major downside of the DVD set is that the instructor is a big man, and he does not have a training partner who is considerably bigger than him. Therefore he cannot show how the system works against a bigger opponent (it will work, but you have to make some slight modifications). Otherwise, the instructing is very good and detailed.
The haganah system is very good and simple to learn. You don't necessarily need the textbook, but still I would recommend buying it. If not anything else, you can use it as an easy reference when you are practicing the techniques.
