Takedowns

In Krav Maga class recently, our instructor was demonstrating some takedowns and submissions for us to practice. One such technique involved kneeling in front of one's opponent, and performing an effective controlling maneuver to neutralize the threat.

As he knelt, facing the female senior member of the class, he clutched her wrist and asked, "From this position, how would I get her on her back ?"

Without missing a beat, she answered,

"Flowers and candy."

All martial-arts-mandated decorum was completely lost after that.
