Krav Maga: Modern Art
It all starts with a choice:
Refuse violence, refuse to be dominated by violence and even the fear of violence, be it verbal, emotional and especially physical. One of the means to achieve this goal: the art of Krav Maga

Created in the late 1960s in Israel by Master Imi Lichtenfeld (1910-1998), Krav Maga was designed and forged especially to respond to any form of physical aggression. The basis on which Krav Maga is based is REALITY: it is unpredictable, multiform, brutal and forgives only very few errors.

From this observation, it is easier to understand the characteristics of Krav Maga and especially what distinguishes it from traditional martial arts that also offer a module "self-defense".
Krav Maga is indeed:

-ambitious: he aspires to treat any situation of physical aggression be it against a aggressor without weapon, with weapon (knife, ax, machete, long stick, short, bat of baseball, rope, gun ... ), from any position (standing in the front, back, left, right, sitting on a chair, sitting on the floor, kneeling, lying on the back ...), regardless of the nature of the terrain, regardless of the brightness, whatever the weather.

Humility: Reality imposes its conditions as the presence of STRESS whose effects must be recognized and never be neglected.

-realistic: the fear, the nervousness, the anxiety felt by the individual in a situation of aggression do not allow him complicated gestures that he can not remember and that he can not even perform physically!

-simple: short gestures, direct, linear most often, that go "straight to the point", easy to learn, easy to remember, easy to perform under ... stress!

-Logic: it is the Principles that make Krav Maga and not the techniques that are only tools in the service of an Art that analyzes, reflects and provides the most accurate and efficient answer to the problem.

-polyvalent: thanks to logic and pragmatism, Krav Maga gives itself the potential to resolve in a decisive way an incalculable number of problems because it can go towards "the unknown" by means of "known".

-Educator: Through a pedagogy based on the pressure of the student, it gradually learns to manage his emotions, his mind, his body and gradually acquires greater self-control.

-human: according to Imi Lichtenfeld's teaching, one must demand of oneself the highest level of competence so as not to have to take a life or even to hurt - as far as possible - his or her aggressors.

I try to pass on the philosophy of the creator of Krav Maga, Master Imi Lichtenfeld, who saw his art as much more than a "defensive weapon" formidable for its efficiency. Indeed, Krav Maga is before a whole a vehicle to reach the blooming of the individual by the control of oneself thanks to the conscience of having adapted tools - because realistic - to manage and even to neutralize the violence under all its forms.

The Art created by Imi Lichtenfeld is, as the experience of teaching proves, very flexible and endowed with a very great faculty of adaptation because each student shows different expectations. The greatest satisfaction is to see how the individual reveals himself to himself through Krav Maga which, by its simplicity and intensity, allows everyone, with sincere practice, to get to the bottom of his doubts and his doubts. fears.

In a particular class, I am an instructor who asks the student of the intensity and physical and mental, curiosity, sense of observation, the spirit of synthesis, the ability to constantly search for the "common denominator In their practice of Krav Maga and ... good mood!

About Me
I have always loved sport and especially the possibility that it offers us to surpass ourselves. I also feel a fascination for combat with or without a weapon, but always with the intention of discovering and getting to know each other. I only fight against gentlemen because against those who are not: I defend myself and I try to end it as quickly as possible - as Krav Maga teaches! -.

However, my second birth took place when in the early 2000s I decided to devote myself to Krav Maga body and soul.

Trained within the I.K.M.F. (International Krav Maga Federation), I obtained my Krav Maga instructor diploma in Geneva, in September 2002. If I already showed an almost manic desire to know everything about Krav Maga when I was only 'a simple pupil, this tendency was multiplied by ten at least when I put on the t-shirt which was inscribed (on the left, in the place of the heart) the word "Instructor".

Since the last greeting of the chief instructor, this Sunday, September 1, 2002, I have not ceased to improve my knowledge to get to the essence of Krav Maga whether in my personal training, during both group and individual lessons .

I try to transmit within the framework of my courses the philosophy of the creator of Krav Maga, the Master Imi Lichtenfeld, who saw his art as much more than a formidable "defensive weapon" by its effectiveness.

Indeed, Krav Maga is above all a vehicle to access the development of the individual through self-control thanks to the awareness of having appropriate tools - because realistic - to manage and even neutralize violence under all its forms.

The Art created by Imi Lichtenfeld is, as teaching experience proves, very flexible and endowed with great adaptability because each student comes with different expectations. The greatest satisfaction is to see how the individual reveals himself to himself through Krav Maga which, by its simplicity and intensity, allows everyone, with sincere practice, to get to the bottom of their doubts and their fears.

Whether in group or private lessons, I am an instructor who demands of his students intensity, both physical and mental, curiosity, a sense of observation, a spirit of synthesis, the ability to research constantly the "common denominator" in their practice of Krav Maga and ... good humor!
