Description

Specialties

Our training comes directly from Israel. We teach krav maga in the fighting system’s most modern evolution.

We belong to Israeli krav maga founder Imi Lichtenfeld’s original and longest standing organization, the Israeli Krav Maga Association (Gidon Fighting System). The IKMA is recognized by the Israeli government as the authority for krav maga. We have sponsored krav maga courses and instructor certification programs since 1978.

Grandmaster Haim Gidon, krav maga founder Imi Lichtenfeld’s chosen successor at 10th dan, oversees all aspects of the Israeli training curriculum

We offer krav maga classes, seminars, and instructor certification in the United States, Israel, and around the world.
