WHY IKMF?

The SOURCE of Krav Maga

The International Krav Maga Federation (IKMF) was established by the founder of Krav Maga, Imi Lichtenfeld (Sde-Or), and is the oldest Krav Maga organization in the World. Based out of Rishon LeZion, Israel we have been training Krav Maga students throughout the World since 1978 and, outside our civilian curriculum, train the best of the best including the Israel Defense Forces, as well as other elite military units in the United States, Europe and Asia.

Most Advanced Evolving CURRICULUM

IKMF’s curriculum is the most advanced, comprehensive and expansive Krav Maga curriculum in the World today with training available in specific specialities including Civilian, Women, Kid, Adapative/Disability, Law Enforcement, Military, and VIP/Bodyguard training. Every year our global instructors meet to review all our techniques and, if needed, adjust them based on real-world feedback. In that, our system and techniques continue to evolve with what’s happening in the World today, right now.

So that EVERYONE can walk in peace

Krav Maga was founded on the principle of ‘So That Everyone Can Walk in Peace’ and, 40 years later, IKMF is still driving Imi’s vision of self-defense for EVERYONE. Regardless of gender, age, or physical ability our training is designed so that everyone can defend themselves in any situation. To Walk in Peace is, quite simply, saying you have the confidence to defend yourself in any situation and, therefore, can walk confidently with peace of mind.

IKMF Instructors are FAMILY

Even better than camaraderie is family; and that’s what IKMF Instructors are to each other. A global family that welcomes and embraces everyone with open arms. You are never alone in the IKMF family.
