ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. (April 15) -- Instructor Meredith Haggerty walked around the group exercise room in the Richter Center. One by one she blocked punches from each of the 10 students repeating the blowout drill she had just taught them.
“Keep your hands up,” Haggerty said to sophomore Kelley Burke as she practiced punching. After a minute Burke finished. Exhausted, but with a proud smile, Burke continued other exercises as Haggerty moved on to the next student.
The Sandra A. and William L. Richter Center now offers weekly Krav Maga classes on Wednesdays at 5 p.m.
