Westchester County and Orange County based Krav Maga New York hosted a law enforcement only ‘Train the Trainer’ certification course earlier this month. Officers who participated in this 40 hour long certification learned Krav Maga based techniques including side arm and long gun retention and defenses against attacks that transition to the ground. Shortly after course completion, Detective Marc M., a Police Academy Instructor, SWAT team member and course participant, stated, “Though intense and highly stressful, the course was personally gratifying and overall, a great success. Those who participated worked hard and represented their departments extremely well… and on our last day when high ranking Police officials showed up to evaluate our training, the room came alive. Everyone was giving it their all. Man, that was an amazing feeling.” Mr. M. goes on, “ I’m convinced that change is eminent statewide and that at some point in the very near future, PD’s all around us will begin to place a higher value on repetitive in-service training like this.”
