The 7 Elbows of Krav maga
This diagram is my own personal reference for the 7 elbow strike combinations taught by Kravmaga. Darker, transparent arms reflect the striking punch, or the end of the elbow technique. All
methods start from the aggressiveFighting Stance. The first three show a top view, as the arm
level is consistent to yours, subsequent attacks require some arm adjustment, and have a sideview accordingly:
Verbal Outline:
1. Cock your elbow back (exaggerated for the drawing) for an aggressive straight elbow tothe opponents chest to head location (head preferred). Careful to use your body as the
power, not simply your arm.2. Transfer your elbow, parallel to your body, sideways with a stab of the elbow to your
opponent
3. Elbow back, targeting the opponents chest to head. Remember to look a split second priorto attack, lest ye land it in a not so comfortable location
4.
Drive the elbow low and back to the opponents abdomen or below5. Drive the elbow from low to high; an uppercut elbow of sorts that should clear space anddirect contact to your opponents chin
6. Reverse of number 5, swing the elbow to an uppercut to the front attackers chin7. Drive your elbow up, then down, in a hammerfist manner that finds the full force of your
body weight as support
