“It validates my belief in the Krav Maga system that two such outstanding real-life self-defense practitioners as Ryan Hoover and Jeff Jimmo are part of it. I found myself saying “YES!” every five minutes during their presentation and love the broad perspective and no-BS advice. Many of my students have reported since the seminar that they had one epiphany or another, which reflects the abundance of pure-gold nuggets that just kept coming.
Jeff holds his audience spell-bound with his blend of straight-talk, humor, and personal real-life examples. And Ryan, besides being the perfect straight man, gives eye-popping demos… well, they both do! What a team, and we had the luxury of an even bigger team because they brought several of their instructors and a few students.
If you run a Krav center, contact me and I`ll tell you the other benefits of having Jeff and Ryan come to your facility. If you are a student of any defensive tactics system, do yourself a favor and find a way to take one of their seminars.”
Carol Middleton, Instructor and Owner, Krav Maga DC
“I don`t have faith in a lot of martial arts teachers but I trust Ryan and hope to take some training myself someday.”
Dan Starks, Personal Safety Expert
“Ryan has an exceptionally good school with a great bunch of people whom it was a pleasure to meet and work with. I highly recommend anyone looking for excellent training to check Ryan`s school out, you will not be dissapointed. I was very impressed by the skill level of his students.”
Richard Dimitri, Founder of Senshido
They (Jimmo and Hoover) have so much devotion for the martial arts, it`s unbelievable. Every aspect of the martial arts attracts them, and that`s why they are so well-rounded…I am honored to call them my friends.”
Bas Rutten, 2 time UFC champion, 3 time King of Pancrase
“Ryan Hoover is an extremely dedicated, and a very talented student and teacher of Krav Maga. He has a solid background in several systems. As far as KM is concerned, he has an excellent understanding of the system…how to perform it and how to deliver it to others who have a genuine interest in learning.
I actually consider him to be among those select individuals who will provide direction, growth and leadership in the Krav Maga System in the years to come.I cannot say enough good things about him.”
Darren Levine, Krav Maga US Chief Instructor
