Krav Maga San Diego Classes with IKM San Diego

Anyone serious about their own self-defense, and that of others, will be interested in learning about Krav Maga in San Diego. It’s a fairly new, very effective form of defense that’s been around since the 1930s. At that time, the founder, Imi Lichtenfeld, was forced to defend not only himself against fascists, he defended his community as well. His skill at sport, and street fighting, plus training he received from his father all combined in a very powerful package, the end result of which was the birth of Krav Maga. Led by instructor Benjamin Halcewicz, who is an accomplished professional in mixed martial arts, the skill of Krav Maga is a worthwhile addition to anyone’s self-defense resume.

The opportunity to learn from a master in the art is golden. Instructors have some very impressive credentials to go with their fighting skills. Some have had the honor of training with Gabi Noah, a direct student of the founder of Krav Maga, Imi Lichtenfeld himself! Krav Maga instruction will, with no doubt, include Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, as this is one of many different facets of Krav Maga. As a result, you will be good to know that most instructors have training in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu as well as Karate. Another form of martial art deeply rooted in Krav Maga. Karate have had the honor of training with the elite of Karate Sensei’s who were themselves direct students of the founder of Karate, Mr. Nishiyama of the Shotokan method, and Mr. Miki of the Shito Ryu method.
