Richard Maus, Gold Coast 
Richard came to Israel for an intensive two week, one on one program. He also participated in the group classes as well as training with at Itay's in Jerusalem. A conditioned athlete with already substantial experience, he was able to quickly pick up and appreciate our IKI Krav style. He has qualified as a Junior IKI Instructor and already helped me teach a class in Jerusalem. I was impressed with his ability to disect the techniques and explain them to others.
Richard returned to Israel for another session of intensive training. I was pleased to see that he had used his time away well and was training in IKI Krav Maga, as well as teaching others. I am proud to promote him to Blue belt. Richard also completed, most succesfully, the basic hand gun training.
