Instructions are also provided for incorporating basic Kapap training methods and techniques into preexisting workout routines.

Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Earl's Kapap review
I found this book to be very basic.If you have any martial arts training at all save your time and money.If you practice a stand up art you may find the ground fighting section beneficial,but even that isn't all that impressive.Kapap is probually a really good martial art,but you aren't likely to see that from this book.



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - All Fluff no Filler
Having been in Martial Arts for 31 years now and having taught for the last 15, I can say that this book will do you NO GOOD.... I bought it with high hopes and was let down. I gave it 2 stars since it does have some good stuff from Jean Jacques Machado, however I thought I was buying a book on Kapap.. Instead the only technical aspects of the book came from BJJ and really didn't have any substance of KAPAP. If you want a good book get the one called Complete Krav Maga as it has actual techniques. This book doesn't.



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Cashing in on Krav Maga popularity done poorly
Apparently, Kapap is an old acronym for Israeli hand-to-hand fighting
so the authors of this book use that term to claim what they're offering predates Krav Maga. And then they proceed to offer a few tidbits of combat principles, Brazilian jujitsu and recycled Krav Maga - none of which is apparently related to the original "kapap" - and do a mediocre job of it.
Disappointing.
Amazon carries much better books on Krav Maga and on Brazilian jujitsu - go to the search bar and look them up rather than spend your money on this one.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - kapap concepts
As a practising kapap practitioner I found the book particularly useful. It is easy to read, well structured and would be an ideal introduction for those looking to take up kapap or those who simply wish to incorporate the concepts into their own martial arts training



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Kapap Combat Concepts: Martial Arts of the Israeli Special Forces
I, too, have had the pleasure of training with Mr. Nardia. This book is an excellant review of the great wealth of knowledge that he, and Kapap, offer. I have been in the martial world for over 32 years and I can say that I highly recommend this book to any one interested in Kapap.
