VIP Silver Instructor Course

Krav Maga is not only the best tool for security personnel, but also (especially for) bodyguards and executive protection officers. Krav Maga provides the ultimate solution for close protection and fast reaction times. VIP Silver is a 9-day course that teaches students how to use Krav Maga for protecting a 3rd party, in addition to the relevant driving and shooting skills required for the job.
