Our Chief Instructor, John Whitman, taught back to back seminars during the last two weekends. He was invited again to Colorado Krav Maga's annual Winter Camp (thanks, Shannon and James!) for three days of training. Then the next weekend, he taught at East Valley Krav Maga in Phoenix, AZ (thanks to Keith Larkin and all his fantastic instructors and students). Next up: Luxembourg, Costa Rica, and Barcelona!
Deputy Chief Instructor Tony Morrison is conducting a Level 1 Instructor Certification at Krav Maga New York starting today. Good luck to all the participants!

We had a great seminar in Madrid! Thanks to Jesus Santaella Pizones @babayaga.santaella for inviting us and organizing the event. It is always great to see you! Thanks also to @Eduardo_alvarez_km_momentum for hosting the event at his beautiful school. It was a great pleasure to meet you and train with you. Finally, I have to thank Josh Metcalf @midtownkravmaga.bjj for traveling to Madrid and providing his Krav Maga talent, teaching ability, and his Spanish translation! The Krav Maga Alliance is growing because of great people like you!
We had a great group testing this year for Brown, 1st Degree Black Belt, and 2nd Degree Black Belt at our headquarters in Los Angeles. Candidates traveled from Belgium, Australia (by way of Japan), and from around the United States. Great job everyone!
