Developed for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), Krav Maga is known to be the best defensive and offensive system ever created that is based on natural instincts, simultaneous defense, and counterattack and utilizes “retzev” (continuous motion) concept.
Krav Maga utilizes techniques from wrestling, boxing, Aikido, Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, Hapkido, and other Martial Arts, modified where necessary for maximum effectiveness.
Today Krav Maga is used by Special Forces and Military Units, Law Enforcement Agencies and civilians around the world.
Performance Krav Maga was founded by Instructor Greg Dziewonski in 2012 with its first location in Mays Landing, New Jersey.
HERE’S OUR LINEAGE:
Greg has been training Krav Maga under the guidance of Master Alain Cohen – founder of Krav Maga Federation – AC. Master Alain Cohen is a direct student of Grandmaster Raphy Elgrissy and Grandmaster Raphy Elgrissy was the first student of Imi Lichtenfeld, the founder of Krav Maga system. Raphy is also the longest Black Belt holder in Krav Maga history.
