Please read Part 1 of 2 – Google Women Techmakers Learn Krav Maga in PowerToWomen.in website. Continued… Part 2 of 2 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.

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 Read More

Speaking in Kannada (Karnataka’s native language) has always been difficult. I can communicate in Kannada well enough for general purposes, but I am not as fluent grammatically. So, when we had to do the Power To Women Corporate Self Defense Workshop entirely in Kannada, I felt conflicted. Because my father was born and raised in Delhi, the task of conducting the workshop entirely in Kannada fell entirely on my shoulders. I was overjoyed because I had been chosen Read More

Baale Mane, Gopalapura iTeachiPower.in ‘Girl Empower, Mentor, Lead & Educate Girls’ Instructor Workshop for School & Colleges It is important to start somewhere. I started my journey as a solo instructor/mentor with iTeachiPower.in ‘Girl Empower, Mentor, Lead & Educate Girls’ Instructor Workshop for School & Colleges through an online workshop with the Baale Mane, a non-profit organisation in Gopalapura. It was my first solo workshop because my dad Mr. Franklin Joseph was in Bengaluru taking his Krav Maga Israeli Military Self Defense classes. Despite taking many Krav Maga Israeli Military Self Defense classes in the past, I was a little nervous starting out, since this was the first time I was the teacher and mentor for a group of teens and kids.

“Be confident & tough” Krystal Joseph
On 30 October, 2013, I, Krystal Joseph was doing Krav Maga training with my father Franklin Joseph who is a teacher in Krav Maga Israeli Self Defense. I was doing ‘Hand Release’ tactics with my father where he acted like a bad person holding my hand on the street and I am supposed to release the hand and run away. He was holding my hand very tightly so it pained a lot. It was getting harder and harder for me to release my hand repeatedly as I had to release it 30 times.

After the training, I put ice packs on my hand to recover from the redness and the pain. After 20 minutes, I checked my hand and I was happy to see my hands Read More
