Last year I began turning my love for the currently obscure martial art/self defence system, Krav Maga into a business. This blog is a way of marking my progress and recording my ramblings about Krav Maga and Martial Arts, as well as a training blog regarding getting myself fit again. I will be writing about physical fitness, weight loss ,diets, equipment and training methods as I get myself back into shape after a knee injury and a really bag chest infection which prevented me training for nearly six months and caused a considerable weight gain. Previous to this I qualified as a Krav Maga instructor in late 2005 and ran a small but friendly club in the West Midlands (UK) from then until last year when I decided that I wanted to make this my living. In July 2006 I went into partnership with my most senior student John Browning (Who is now a fully qualified instructor too). I called the business "Krav Systems" and if you translate Krav from Hebrew into English it means "Battle Systems". That's our logo there. We have gone from 10 students then to 50 regular students now. I think the target will be something like 400 before I am happy! Follow this blog and see how I do.
