Krystal Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense 009

Me, Ms. Krystal Joseph & Ms. Priya (one of my father senior members of his Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defence Academy, Bengaluru) in our Power To Women Corporate Self Defense Workshop for Google Cloud’s Women Techmakers and entrepreneurs came across some girls/women who were so scared when we mentioned we were going to teach them Krav Maga Israeli Military Self defense, that they started walking backwards. We (Krystal & Priya) were not 6 feet tall muscular men but we were nearly the same size, age and body structure as most of these women.

So why were they so scared? In our experience, most of these girls were not confident about their physical structure i.e., they believe they are not strong enough or have the physical size, strength or right age to do self defense or they assumed there would be physical stunts or jumps of martial arts & they can’t do those too. Our Krav Maga Israeli Military Self Defense does not have martiala arts stunts or tricks. Krav Maga Israeli Military Self Defense is not even dependent on physical strength, size or age of the practitioner. Once we convinced them of these facts, they were very warm and welcoming to the knowledge we were providing them. Few of them even took selfies with us 🙂

Krystal Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense 005We also meet Mr. Arun Teja Godavarthi (ZeoSpec), from Google Developer, Major Vandana Sharma, Motivational Speaker in the event & Mr. Sandesh from Identityworld.in one of the organisers who were very interested in talking to us about our self defense system and were very thrilled about our tactics.

Krystal Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense 017The theme #WTMDareToBe was also very close to our concept of iTeachiPower.in ‘Girl Empower, Mentor, Lead & Educate Girls’ Instructor Workshop for School & Colleges. We aim to Empower, Lead, Mentor & Educate girls through both psychological knowledge as well as Krav Maga Self Defense Tactical science. #WTMDareToBe fearless concept was to learn effective, fast & simple self defense, which will help these women professional to fearlessly move around the world.

Experiences that forged Franklin Joseph’s spirit

Mr. Franklin Joseph was born into the slums of New Delhi, India, and from an early age, he was unwillingly exposed to some elements of sexual abuse and violent crime. After surviving 22-25 years in street violence and abusive circumstances, he gradually converted his bad experiences into positive knowledge. Today many of his projects have their base in what he learned from his grass-root level experience from crime, violence & abuse from his past merged with cutting edge scientific knowledge & skill set he has acquired since then.

In his TEDx talk video, he showcases his dark humour, skills and knowledge of ‘Combat Science’ with a jaw-dropping opening line “I See Dead People” indirectly referencing to the fact that lack of preparation against crime could be a fatal mistake. He is voluntarily self-retired after 11 years of working in the IT industry as a Creative Director, Project Manager, Senior Website Designer and Search Engine Optimization Specialist.

He also worked as a freelancer with Mr Kailash Satyarthi, Nobel Peace Prize Winner 2014 for 7 years when his quest to educate others to help them understand and deal with crime and violence was born.
