Commando Krav Maga Instructor

I am a currently a level IV CKM instructor under Moni Aizik and have been involved in various Israeli martial arts since 1999 (I was originally a Krav Maga instructor with the IKMF), training with various organizations both in Israel, the US and the UK.

I am also a qualified Redman Simulation Suit trainer/instructor who has been trained in how to conduct scenario based training i.e. setting up real-life scenarios, using instructors and students wearing special protective equipment.

Before 1999 I practised Judo (I hold a 2nd Dan black belt and have competed at National level), Wrestling (Freestyle & Greco Roma) and several styles of traditional Jiu Jutsu. l continue to train in Brazilian Jiu Jutsu, no-gi submission wrestling and Vale Tudo.

As well as being a martial artist I am also an experienced personal trainer having certifications is sports conditioning, exercise & nutrition, personal training etc from the YMCA and HIFI. All my classes involve a core component of Cosher Kravi (Combat Fitness), as street survival is greatly increased if individuals possess a good level of ‘task orientated’ fitness i.e. they are fit enough to survive the intensity of a street fight once the adrenaline rush is gone.

N.B. don’t worry about your current level of fitness, I have helped individuals of all fitness levels develop and improve in this area.

My aim as an instructor is not just to teach individuals a set of techniques that can be used to defend themselves with but to help educate themselves into developing a ‘personal safety game-plan/strategy’, which will give them a set of tools they can use to help avoid potentially violent confrontations and/or de-escalate/escape them should they arise.

What I try and offer to students is a ‘total’ approach to self-defence, using scenario based training, which allows them to experiment with different solutions to aggressive and violent confrontations; experiencing both the stress and adrenal rush that accompanies real life street conflicts.
