#08 Danny Netzer - Head Krav Maga Instructor for the IDF

The Ron Engelman Podcast

Danny Netzer is the head Krav Maga instructor for the Israeli Defense Force. His responsibilities include putting together the training programs and overseeing the syllabus that's delivered to every single soldier in the IDF. He heads the Krav Maga instructors school that trains the instructors themselves that teach Krav Maga throughout the Israeli army. And he debriefs and studies all instances in which Krav Maga is used by soldiers in real life to protect themselves and to survive real violence.
Danny also happens to be a good friend of mine and a long-time training partner. I originally met Danny back in 2001 when we were both young soldiers. This one has been one of the best podcasts in my opinion so far, and also maybe one of the most challenging ones. Danny and I certainly don't see eye to eye on everything. But I believe that's part of what makes it so interesting. So enjoy!
