Max McGregor, 2nd Dan Black Belt in Gendai­Ryu Krav Maga & Jiu–Jitsu, founded Champions Krav Maga Academy in 2022. He is also a former member the Australian Defence Force. It was established to provide realistic and effective self-defence training that is designed for real-world applications and everyday situations through Modern Krav Maga. CKMA teaches self-defence so people can be safe, confident, and have the ability to protect themselves and others. Gendai-Ryu translates to “Modern System” and has adopted a multidisciplinary training approach by integrating multiple martial arts together, forming a Mixed Modern Combatives system to create a versatile, well-rounded and effective version of Modern Krav Maga. Dr. Gavriel Schneider is the head of Gendai­Ryu KravMaga & Jiu–Jitsu’s system. He is a 7th degree Black Belt and one of Australia’s most skilled self-defense instructors. He also has a PhD in best-practice use of force and defensive tactics training methodology. This Modern Krav Maga approach enables us to draw from a variety of proven martial arts systems and integrate the best self-defence techniques into our curriculum. Because there are no rules, mats, or referees in real life situations, we train with a realistic mindset. Gendai-Ryu Krav Maga & Jiu-Jitsu has been battle tested by Military, Police, Specialised Security and everyday people hundreds of times over the last two decades and has been credited with saving lives on many occasions. Today, the Gendai-Ryu Krav Maga & Jiu-Jitsu System provides the very best mix for serious martial artists who want to learn street practical self defence but also strive to become rounded and capable martial artists.
