Congratulations to Mr Swift and all the candidates that completed the recent KAPAP instructor course held at VERVE Bromsgrove.
KAPAP is the martial art of the Israeli special forces; specifically the military unit Sayeret Matkal, and the counter-terror police unit named Yamam. So as far as a martial arts with practical application, it is being tested in the field and updated on a daily basis!
So as you’d expect the super intense 5-day course was as tough as it comes covering various punishing physical test elements as well as technical drills including stand-up self-defence protocol, knife defence, gun defence, ground work, control / arrest and various hostage control techniques.
Thank you to lead instructor Amit Himelstein all the way from Israel for the instruction , guidance and friendship as well as organiser Martin Brown for his continued support!
