Fred started his Krav Maga journey in early 2015 under IKMF California Director and Expert 2 Drew Goodwin.

Lalaine began Krav Maga in early 2015 to learn to protect herself and her family. She quickly became passionate about self-defense training. Her preference is to train and teach from a technical perspective, so students know how to perform a technique properly and also understand the concept and biomechanics behind it. This is especially important in effectively defending oneself against attackers of various sizes and strengths.
