With that base, to maximize the efficiency of the practitioners and keep the integrity and quality of the system as high as possible, Hybrid Krav-Maga has adapted a belt and stripe system based on skills of the practitioner
In HKM the premiere driver of progression is increased effectiveness and understanding of all aspects of physical conflict. This means that the main task for HKM is to improve the effectiveness in which the student can perform a specific task at a lower energy cost in a timely manner against a wide variety of people. This can only be achieved through qualitative time spent in the training room under realistic and relevant pressure that is as similar to real life conflict as possible.
Please note that the most important factor in HKM is EFFICIENCY and time on the mats under realistic pressure. This means that your actual skill and function under pressure will affect the HKM level awarded.
Black Belt levels will only be awarded personally to the practitioner based on the individual skills, time and experience of the practitioner at hand by Founder Tommy Blom. During the tranistional period this will be after that the practitioner Sucessfully passes the Transition Course (HKM-TC) and a testing period. Black Belt levels will not be following any direct or specific rule.
