EYAL YANILOV

Eyal Yanilov KMG
Eyal Yanilov was 15 years old when he began his Krav Maga training under Eli Avikzar, one of the top Krav Maga instructors at that time. His impressive performance soon led him to train directly under the personal tutelage of the Grandmaster of Krav Maga, Imi Lichtenfeld.  Eyal demonstrated extraordinary talent as a student in Krav Maga, and later as an instructor. He went on to serve as Imi’s closest assistant from the early 1980s for almost 20 years, and is the only person in the world to whom Imi has presented with the ‘Founders Diploma of Excellence.’ Eyal currently holds a Master Level 3, the highest level that can be attained in Krav Maga.

THE EARLY DAYS OF KRAV MAGA

To meet the needs of modern conflict in the world today, Eyal Yanilov, after Imi entrusted him with this mission, created a new curriculum for Krav Maga transforming it to a more organized and formal system that is built on the principles of action and unique instructional methods. He then became the head of the Israeli Krav Maga Associations Professional Committee and was instrumental in the educating the general public in the benefits of Krav Maga, as well as military and anti-terrorist units in Israel.

As the head of the Israeli Krav Maga Associations Professional Committee, Eyal was instrumental in promoting Krav Maga, educating the general public and special forces in the benefits of Krav Maga. He also founded the International Krav Maga Federation (IKMF) in 1996 and served as its President and Head Instructor under the guidance of Grandmaster Imi. Krav Maga has since spread throughout the globe and Eyal has personally trained all of the world’s first generation of Krav Maga Instructors in over 40 countries.

The organization was designed to provide a structured format to Krav Maga whilst maintaining a strict standard of training.

Under the personal supervision of Eyal, Krav Maga Global operates a team of highly qualified instructors known as the ‘Global and International Teams’ who are responsible for delivering and designing Krav Maga training lessons, as well as carrying out exclusive workshops and specialist courses throughout the world.
