Krav Maga is the martial art form developed in Israel, and it is known to be one of the most useful martial arts in real life defense situations. Sharir Richman, an expert Krav Maga instructor, will be coming to Yale to teach basic Krav Maga skills over a 2.5 hour period.

He will be coming to Yale to teach an interactive session that will incorporate basic Krav Maga techniques (no experience necessary) as well as principles behind Krav Maga.

The 1-time session will be held approximately 1 month from today, on Sunday, February 27 from 1-3:30. Everybody is very warmly welcomed to participate (regardless of your experience with martial arts, political views, etc.) The event is free of charge.

Looking to deepen your knowledge of a yoga practice?


Ever wondered why Chaturanga looks so easy but feels so hard? Or whether your alignment is right in downward facing dog? Or why yogis seem to spend so much time in these poses in the first place?

Come join Yogis at Yale this Saturday, February 12th from 10:30-12 am for the first of a series of hands-on workshops designed to deepen your personal yoga practice. Whether you have recently discovered yoga or are a full-time yoga addict, yogis Cristina and Katherine will lead you through the most fundamental sequence of yoga, teaching all those nitty-gritty details fun to master but so easy to miss.

Please RSVP to Cristina at cristina.poindexter@yale.edu by this Friday, February 11th to reserve a spot. Space is limited in order to ensure as much personal attention as all you enthusiastic yogis deserve. 6 months of yoga experience recommended, but not required. See you on the mat!
