Krav Maga in Rio de Janeiro

Why train Krav Maga in Rio de Janeiro?

Rio de Janeiro is a major city in Brazil with a population of 6.7 million. As an urban environment, residents face self-defense scenarios specific to dense populations: public transport, busy streets, parking lots, and confined spaces. Authentic Krav Maga, designed for real-world situations, addresses every one of these.

Self-defense law in Brazil

In Brazil, self-defense is governed by Art. 25 Código Penal. This means any self-defense must be necessary, simultaneous to the threat, and proportional. The Avikzar System teaches techniques that respect these legal requirements while maximizing your survival.
