Scanning is a tactic used in a large majority of Krav Maga schools in this day and age. The purpose of the scan is to check your area, for potential threats, for obstacles, for ways to escape, to survey your damage and so on. Not all KM organisations use the scan, but all stress the importance of being aware of your surroundings; the risks, the opportunities and knowing your environment.
