Having taken a gap in self defense training, I was quite apprehensive about how the Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense Goa Boot Camp was going to turn out. Day 1 started with a hike to the beach… Most of us were in a ‘vacation’ mood (being in Goa and all). And then it all started with a bang! From one crazy conditioning skill to another, tactical drills, survival exercises and lots of sand and salt water, I barely managed to complete them. Guru Franklin Joseph is right. Krav Maga is not just about fighting, it’s also about the psychological aspects of a fight. He trained us to survive, no matter what the circumstances are. We trained in the sun, storm and the rocky terrains. The conditioning exercises were tough, but fun. Then the volleyball game warm up inside the pool. I could feel my old stamina, strength and skills coming back to me. Day 2 and 3 were equally challenging, but by then, I was able to handle them more effectively. We tested our team resolve against the high tides of Palolem… We won some and lost some. Overall, the Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self Defense Goa Boot camp made me realize how much I missed Franklin Joseph Krav Maga in the last few months and especially Frank Sir’s training methods. I also met some of the toughest Indian warriors and was lucky enough to spar with them. Amidst the sand, storm and the sun, We found our will to survive. Took the punches, the blows & the kicks, We left our footprints in the sand. And till the day we come back for more, These sca are yet to be earned…”

The Franklin Joseph Krav Maga GOA boot camp was an extraordinary experience in my life. We got to see the beautiful beaches of Goa, feel the rainy weather, the gusty winds and the fishermen coming back from the sea with the catch of the day. If all of these combined with the combat training of Franklin Joseph KRAV MAGA, I am sure it would have made an unforgettable memory of your life. Guru Franklin Joseph camp was designed to be more than just kicking and punching. Allowing you to gain the self confidence, lose weight, tone and strengthen both body and mind with a mix of adventure. Franklin Joseph Krav Maga Self-defense is taught in a safe and enjoyable environment while emphasizing on the values and practical application of skills sets that could one day save a peon’s life. Overall I totally enjoyed the Goa Boot camp and just like the saying “If You thought your last adventure was mind blowing, Imagine what the future holds” I am ready for more !!

For the fit time I saw my guru Franklin Joseph playing like a child here and there, enjoying the beach like a brat. Moving on to training part it went good, everything is practical, rainy weather, beach, bruises, burns, helping out each other (even the fisherman). The bonding we make especially with these boot camps was inevitable. I made lot more friends out there. Finally it is a good experience learning from everybody. Looking forward for more of these kind.

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.
