What is Krav Maga? What is the history of Krav Maga? Who is the founder of Krav Maga? Is Krav Maga hard to learn? What is American Krav Maga? What is fighting? These are just some of the questions I get asked daily about the style of Krav Maga that I study. Who am I? My name is James Mahurin, a retired Green Beret who, 5 years before retirement, found American Krav Maga and the United States Krav Maga Association (USKMA). I have attained a 2nd degree black belt through USKMA. I have a brown belt in Shio Karano Ryu Ju Jitsu and I am the Muay Thai Champion of Northern Afghanistan by default. All of the above questions will be answered as I interview my fellow affiliates from within USKMA and other Krav Maga practitioners from around the world.

Dutch Hemker is a Navy veteran and Krav Maga Black belt. He has studied many different martial arts but like the rest of us found Krav Maga. Dutch is the first Krav Maga practitioner I have had on the podcast outside of the USKMA federation and has been a longtime friend of mine. AmericsnKravMagaRadio@proton.me
