Krav Maga has appeal to many because it is based on simple easy to learn and easy to retain skills. It is not geared to competitions because there are no rules. The intent is to get home safe by whatever means necessary. Reaction to a violent attack builds upon ones natural reactions to the threat using gross rather than fine motor skills to fend off the attack and immediately counterattack. As a practitioner of Krav Maga, I think it is the best self-defense system for me. Depending on what you are looking for, it may or may not be the best for you.

Krav Maga was developed as a "Fighting System". However, all of the Krav Maga techniques have been taken from various Martial Arts from all over the world. So Krav Maga is Krav Maga, and all of the techniques are taken from other arts, it is unique in its on way.
Krav maga is mistaken as the martial art that Josan Bourne uses, but it is really Jeet Kune Do, Escrima and Kali.
No, Krav Maga is one specific martial art, while MMA is a mixed of multiple martial art styles, hench the name Mixed Martial Arts. Krav Maga is more of a self defense by whatever means and really isn't for sport like MMA.
Well Krav Maga is a combination of many martial arts like Jiujitsu, Muy Thai, and Kickboxing. It seems that Muy Thai is pretty similar. MMA would be like the sport version of krav Maga. They are both a combination of several martial arts, both are modern, and both are proven to be effective, but MMA is a sport and Krav Maga is a combat. Krav Maga is Hebrew for "contact combat" Krav Maga is deadly and will teach how to defend yourself on the streets. So you can say that MMA is like Krav Maga, but just a little less brutal and deadly, and designed for things like UFC or boxing. (any kind of fighting that has rules.) But it will still work great on the streets.

yes its called Krav Maga
You need to locate a Krav Maga Training Place. You need to also be aware that most places have a variety of martial arts, or in this case "Fighting Systems". A Karate Dojo may offer Krav Maga, you just have to make some phone calls and ask around. When you pick a Krav Maga training facility you need to find out how the instructors are trained and any affiliation with a larger organization that trains and certifies instructors. Like anything else there are good and bad instructors and facilities. Talk to those training at the site and do some research on line. I operate two Krav Maga facilities in Maryland currently with 22 certified instructors and we are affiliated with Krav Maga Worldwide who has significant credentials in the civilian, law enforcement and military communities. Look for this type of credibility.
