Premier Martial Arts & Krav Maga Training Centers Instructs Free Kid Safe? Program as a Free Community Event; As Seen on 7News

Boulder, CO (PRWEB) May 11, 2006

As Seen on Denver's Channel 7-News, Premier Martial Arts and the Krav Maga Training Centers presents the nationally recognized Kid Safe Program as a free community event for Boulder County school age children from 4 to 12 years on Saturday, June 3rd at 10:00 am.


This special event will be held at Premier Martial Arts location at 2750 Glenwood Drive in Boulder. Our expert instructors will teach children how to protect themselves against abduction and exploitation. Our curriculum provides children with the skills they need to be assertive, smart, strong and most importantly, safe!


The FBI National Crime Information Center cites that 2,200 children on average are reported missing each day of the year. Yet the NCIC believes many children can be safely recovered if parents are able to provide police with a complete identification record.


In the Kid Safe program, we provide the tools you need to create a Kid-Safe Identification Record for your child. The Kid Safe personal identification kit contains a physical description log including personal information, fingerprints, DNA kit, reusable emergency medical release card and emergency contact information.


Kid-Safe is an event where parents, students, friends, and family members are encouraged to participate.


Shannon Lukeman states, ?The tools we will provide in this seminar can potentially save lives and we feel it is our duty to share this information with our children. As leaders within the community, we can make a difference.?


KID SAFE is a part of Premier Martial Arts? community outreach program and the seminar is open to everyone.

Miami, FL (PRWEB) February 10, 2008

The unique program is performed in cooperation with more than 50 agencies and has been funded in part by the US Department of Homeland Security.


Participants in the upcoming mission will receive in-depth training by various security professionals who combat terror threats on a daily basis as well as having the chance to explore the unique cultural and historical landscape of Israel. Some of the mission highlights and topics covered will include:

Public Safety - large scale events, shopping and retail, public transportation
Ports and Airports - tour and learn about some of the world's most complex security arrangements including a visit to Israel's Olympic Village
Critical Infrastructure - tour the Ashdod Power Plant and learn about defenses against Kasam Missiles that are being constantly being fired from Gaza
University and Schools
Government buildings - visit Israel's legislature "The Knesset"
VIP Protection - review lessons learned from the 1995 Rabin Assassination
Suicide Terror - visit sites of past terrorist incidents and speak with public security officials

Additionally, participants will experience some of the best dining and accommodations Israel has to offer. Optional tours are available for visiting Israel's Holy sites including a guided tour through Jerusalem's Old City, lunch at the Sea of Galilee and dinner near Mt. Tabor.


SSI CEO Solomon Bradman comments, "We are leading the way, making a difference together with a very dedicated group of First Responders? [who] consider themselves a cadre of people ready to fight the war on terror? all very inspired after seeing what Israel has achieved." He continues, "Because we give them a hands-on experience, and no-one else has the connections to do this? all our visits are really with the heads of security of wherever we are visiting?"


A past mission delegate recalls, "The training we received was very well balanced as to the many facets of security concerns that the police and private security have to deal with on a daily basis. It was invaluable to learn how the military, law enforcement and private security agencies cooperate and work toward a common goal." - Lieutenant Colonel Richard Wheeler, Commander Strategic Planning, Maryland DoT

Bad Boy Selects Revgear as Distributors of MMA Fight Gear & Mixed Martial Arts Clothing: T-shirts, Fight Shorts, Gloves, Training Apparel & More

Burbank, CA (PRWEB) July 30, 2008

Bad Boy, a leading MMA lifestyle brand that offers Mixed Martial Arts apparel and fighting gear and equipment, selects Revgear Sports as exclusive manufacturers and distributors of MMA Pro Series equipment and apparel. Revgear will make Bad Boy branded products available to major national on-line retailers, martial arts schools, MMA studios, specialty retailers such as MMA fight and large sporting good stores that carry Mixed Martial Arts Equipment and Apparel.


Bad Boy enjoys a unique fame in the world of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA). In the early nineties, Bad Boy began supporting Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu throughout Brazil and also the new sport of Vale Tudo (No Rules): a contest used by martial artists to resolve the question of what martial art is most effective. When the USA outlawed MMA fights, Bad Boy supported the North American fighters who went to Brazil in search of quenching their thirst for this new sport. Bad Boy also sponsored many Brazilian fighters and tournaments. Then Bad Boy created the most iconic and important piece of MMA equipment to that date: the Bad Boy Vale Tudo Short. As if that weren't enough, Bad Boy took their support of MMA to the next level: they legitimized MMA by creating casual wear for mass consumers. Soon everyone in Brazil, even children, were wearing Bad Boy MMA-themed clothing. In Japan, Bad Boy bolstered their already significant sales through sponsorship of K-1 Fighting legends Bob Sapp and Jerome LeBanner, demonstrating a deep trust in the sport and its fans. LeBanner remains a member of the Bad Boy Team to this day. In South Africa, Bad Boy has been one of the first sponsors of the burgeoning MMA culture in that country. Robin Offner, CEO of Bad Boy Brands, states "15 years of dedication to Mixed Martial Arts has paid off in a loyalty to Bad Boy that is unparalleled in the world of MMA." Bad Boy currently sponsors some of the top fighters with the brightest futures, including Mauricio "Shogun" Rua, Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida, Diego "Nightmare" Sanchez and Rafael "Feij?o Cavalcante.


Bad Boy's dedication to the sport of MMA matches that of Revgear to provide the best products to today's fighters. While training for his black belt, Paul Reavlin, CEO of Revgear, grew frustrated with the existing training equipment on the market. Tired of false claims of quality and poorly designed fighting products, he decided that creating a high quality branded fighting and martial arts product line was the only alternative. The result is Revgear - professional gear for professional fighters.


With Revgear Sports signed on as an official licensee, Bad Boy is poised to accomplish in the USA what they already accomplished in Brazil and Japan; together they will take the message to the MMA fighters and MMA fight fans nationwide.


About Bad Boy -

Founded in 1982, Bad Boy is a leading international action sports lifestyle brand with worldwide distribution spanning 6 different continents.

Through support of MMA athletes and events worldwide, Bad Boy hopes to increase awareness and appreciation for the intelligence, desire and dedication demonstrated by these world-class athletes. With international operations headquartered in San Diego, California, Bad Boy spans the globe through its longstanding relationships with over 50 dedicated licensee manufacturers worldwide.

Krav Maga New York Poised To Establish Itself As A Leader In Krav Maga Based Hand-to-Hand Defensive Tactics Training

Westchester County, NY (PRWEB) October 28, 2011

After being catapulted to the forefront of Law Enforcement Tactical Training over a year ago by facilitating specialty training for one of NY State?s elite special ops teams, Westchester & Orange County based Krav Maga New York vanished from the spotlight, or so it seemed. But, as KMNY?s Lead Force Training Instructor Ed Raso explains, ?There are many people out there who claim to have trained Law Enforcement. When you dig a little deeper though, you find that they?ve trained individuals who just happen to be in Law Enforcement. On occasion, you may find someone who trained an agency once. That ?once? speaks for itself. Since its inception our Force Training Team has repeatedly and consistently trained Law Enforcement, both individuals and agencies, and our list of references continues to grow. Our commitment to this process is evident by our Instructors? dedication to their own continuing training at the highest levels of Krav Maga. KMNY currently has 6 certified Force Training Instructors, and we will have 9 by the end of 2011. We are not ?once? guys?.????


Krav Maga, renowned worldwide for its effectiveness against real life violent encounters, was originally created for the Israeli Defense Force (IDF). Unlike Mixed Martial Arts, Boxing, Wrestling, BJJ, or other forms of rule-based competition, Krav Maga was designed for real world attacks where rules simply do not apply. One of the most sought after methods for self-defense, it teaches practitioners how best to neutralize attacks and escape unharmed. Krav Maga is characterized by simple, instinctive responses against realistic attacks, and the defenses are easy to learn, easy to retain, and can be replicated under stress.


Krav Maga's total body fitness has attracted countless Hollywood stars including Jennifer Lopez, Kristanna Loken, Brendan Fraser, Jennifer Garner and Ashton Kutcher. Krav Maga is also a favorite among many Law Enforcement, Military, and Anti Terrorist Training Units who depend on Krav Maga for its explosive nature and unrivaled effectiveness


Since 2004, Krav Maga New York (based in Westchester and Orange Counties) has been featured on the Journal News, the North County News, the Record Review, LoHud.com, the Blotter, Hudson Valley Magazine, Healthy Frontiers, and News 12 Westchester. KMNY has trained thousands of civilians and hundreds of Law Enforcement officers including members of New York Tactical Officers Association (NYTOA) and a high profile protective services unit. KMNY is recognized and highly regarded by leading Krav Maga licensing bodies nationwide.


More recently, members of the KMNY Force Training Team conducted Law Enforcement specific training for officers at both the Westchester County Police Academy and the Rockland County Police Academy. Additional training is scheduled next month for a multi-state law enforcement agency tasked with protecting our ports and harbors


When asked about the surge in KMNY?s popularity, Owner and Chief Instructor Davide Gristina simply said, ?We put people first?.


About Krav Maga New York:

Krav Maga New York offers authentic Black Belt level Krav Maga training to civilian adults, kids and Law Enforcement. KMNY has presented at public libraries, temples, high schools, elementary schools, scout meetings, boys and girls clubs, charity events, colleges, and for leadership and other groups. For more information, contact KMNY at 1-877-Krav Maga or visit KMNY online at http://www.KMNY.us
