Instructor Profiles

Aaron Krav Maga Global - North Shore Instructor

Aaron , Head Instructor, Krav Maga Global - North Shore

My martial arts journey began with earning a black belt in karate, followed by training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) with a top international club. While I enjoyed both disciplines, I felt something was missing. That changed when I discovered Krav Maga while living in London. I was instantly captivated by its real-world practicality, dynamic training methods, and the challenge of mastering something truly unique and exciting.

In 2010, I completed my Krav Maga Global Instructor Certification in the UK and established a successful club in London, which I ran for five years before returning to New Zealand.

In 2015, I founded the first Krav Maga Global club in NZ, which quickly developed a strong membership base and earned a reputation for delivering premium training. Today, I’m proud of the thriving community we’ve built and the countless individuals we’ve inspired to experience the benefits of Krav Maga.

My development as a Krav Maga practitioner and instructor has taken me around the world, including training camps in Israel (the birthplace of Krav Maga), the UK, Europe, and Australia. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the system and enriched my teaching. I have the pleasure of spending many camps learning directly from Eyal Yanilov the foremost Krav Maga master (and one of the earliest pupils and later head instructor under Imi Lichtenfeld founder of Krav Maga)

I’m passionate about helping you learn Krav Maga not just for self-defense, but to transform your life by boosting your confidence, fitness, and overall well-being.

Brad Krav Maga Global - North Shore Instructor

Brad, Instructor - Krav Maga Global, North Shore

My background before Krav Maga was in boxing. I was drawn to Krav Maga because of its practicality and the chance to integrate my boxing skills with Krav Maga techniques for real-world self-defense.

I was one of Aaron’s early members in Auckland and eagerly took the opportunity to complete the Krav Maga Global Instructor Course, becoming a certified instructor in 2020. It was one of the most physically demanding challenges I’ve ever faced, but training with leading international instructors made it an incredible experience.

I love the camaraderie of training and teaching, and as a fitness enthusiast, I enjoy the challenge of helping people get fit while they learn essential self-defense skills.
