DAVID KAHN

David Kahn has formally trained all five branches of the U.S. military, the Royal Marines, the Italian Marines, as well as federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies in many central training schoolhouses. These schoolhouses include the Marine Corps Martial Arts School of Excellence (MACE), Naval Special Warfare Advanced Training Command (Coronado), and Army School of Combatives (Ft. Benning). David has also trained the Academy instructors of the FBI, DEA, New Jersey State Police, Pennsylvania State Police, Philadelphia Police, NYNJ Port Authority, and a host of other agencies. He is a certified instructor by the State of New Jersey Police Training Commission and MPOETC approved. David has also trained NFL players in DK Krav Maga Football Combatives including several perennial pro bowlers.

Woven within the fabric of Instructor Kahn's pedigree, he also holds an edict of a fifth-degree black belt in Combat Jiu-Jitsu from the United States Judo Association. Further separating his professional training from that of 'demonstration practitioner', Mr. Kahn develops his real-world programming from an ongoing relationship with current Military and Law Enforcement specialists.

Within his appointment as Director of the Israeli Combative Tactics Association (ICTA) "It's not enough to create a plan of attack from something you see online or hear about in the third person. We test, study, debug, and actively seek to complicate every situation, knowing that nothing can be depended upon happening when you're called on to protect your life or those of your loved ones. This is true martial innovation for all people at all levels."

Mainstream media regularly feature David including New York Times, Men’s FitnessGQEsquire, USA TodayLos Angeles TimesWashington PostNew YorkerPenthouseFitnessMarine Corps NewsArmed Forces NetworkSpecial Operations Report, and Military.com. He has also appeared on mainstream news networks including CBS, ABC, Fox, WPN 11, and the Discovery Channel.
