In Garcia’s video, she can be seen practicing a fighting sequence wherein the actress blocks Neri’s attempted attack and hits him with her fist and knees before taking Neri down to the floor.
“1st day training of Krav Maga with @_victorneri_ and @dindo_ikmf. Solid!! So excited for this primetime show!!” said Garcia about the training.
Krav Maga is a hybrid martial art, originally developed for the Israel Defense Forces, noted for its practicality, efficiency and high-adaptability to real-life encounters.
Aside from self-defense training, Garcia has also been undergoing gun training for the new project. She practiced in an outdoor range and course with Jet Dionisio last Saturday, June 1, as per her Instagram post.
“Outdoor range and courses this morning!! Big thanks to Sir @jet_dionisio for preparing me for my upcoming show!!” Garcia said.
No other details regarding the new show have been revealed by the actress, as of this writing. Meanwhile, Neri who shared Gabbi’s post stated some interesting hashtags, indicating that the new show will be an “action series” under GMA network. JB
