FACT : A crime is logged every 5 seconds in India, and a crime against a woman every 71 seconds according to NCRB figures. Behind every number is an employee who left the office on time and never imagined it would happen to them.
You already know the quiet worry. The late-shift nurse walking to her two-wheeler. The IT employee waiting for a cab outside a half-lit gate. The team member who gets one more uncomfortable message from a colleague and tells no one. As an HR manager, you carry that worry silently, and a one-hour awareness talk with a pamphlet does not make it go away. When something does happen, “we did a session once” will not feel like an answer to anyone, least of all to you.
Power to Women is a corporate self-defence workshop created by Specialist Franklin Joseph for HR managers and company wellness teams. It blends proven Israeli military fighting methods with real knowledge of how criminals choose, approach and attack their targets. Your employees learn to spot danger early, speak with authority, and escape physical attacks fast. This is not sport. It is not ring-fighting. It is survival training built for real city life, real offices and real commutes.

Power to Women Workshops ~ 3 Main Parts of Training
Most workplace safety sessions fail for one reason: they teach moves to a mind that has already gone blank. Real safety follows a clear priority. Surviving sudden criminal violence requires 80% Psychological Strategies and Warrior Mindset to ignite the courage, and 20% Krav Maga Tactics for effective elimination of threat or escape from threat. Mr. Franklin trains the mind first and the body second, so your employees think and act like people who survive, not like athletes playing a match.
1. Building Mental Confidence and Leadership
- Quick Thinking Under Pressure : Make fast, smart choices when something scary happens suddenly. This builds real confidence to lead and protect others.
- Confident Body Language : Stand, speak and act in ways that stop threats before they start. Attackers avoid people who look alert and in control.
- Strong Personal Boundaries : Say no firmly and make people respect it. This works for workplace bullying and uncomfortable situations too.
2. Learning to Handle Stress Without Freezing
- Turn Panic Into Action : When your body floods with fear chemicals, learn to turn that energy into clear, useful movement instead of freezing.
- Stay Calm and Clear : Keep your mind working even when your body wants to freeze or run away in a crisis.
- Use Stress to Focus Better : The right amount of stress can help you think faster and see danger sooner. Learn to use it, not fight it.
3. Taking Control During a Crisis
- Spot Escape Routes Fast : Instantly see where you can run, what is dangerous and where you are safe in any building or street.
- Speak with Authority : Give clear instructions and calm people down without shouting or making a dangerous situation worse.
- Recover After Something Scary : Look after yourself after a frightening event, keep evidence safe and stay protected.

Power to Women Workshops = NO Jumps. NO Stunts. Simple. Easy. Scientific.
If your employees picture flying kicks, sweaty drills and a room full of people watching them struggle, that image is wrong. Power to Women is built for ordinary working people in ordinary office clothes, who have never done anything like this before. Nobody is asked to be brave in front of colleagues. Nobody is asked to be fit. Everyone is asked to learn a few simple things that work when it matters most.
Why It Is Simple, Easy and Scientific
- NO Jumps, NO Stunts : No flying kicks, no acrobatics, no filmy moves. Every technique is a plain, natural movement that is safe to learn and safe to use.
- Simple : A few easy moves instead of long combinations. When fear wipes out complicated steps, simple ones stay with you.
- Easy : No fitness, flexibility or strength needed. Your team learns in one workshop, not after years of practice.
- Scientific : Built on how the body and brain actually react to fear, using leverage and angles that let a smaller person stop a bigger attacker.
- Normal Office Clothes : Business wear, saris, skirts or traditional dress. Every move works in what your employees wear every day.
Why Every Employee Feels Comfortable in the Room
- No One Is Singled Out : The focus is on learning, not performing in front of colleagues. Everyone works at their own comfort level.
- Clear Expectations : Everyone knows what will happen, step by step, before they begin. No surprises, no pressure.
- Respectful, Calm Environment : Sensitive topics such as harassment by known people are handled seriously and with care.
- Confidence From the First Session : Employees leave feeling more capable, not more afraid.

Fact Check : Our Workshops vs Martial Arts Workshops
Real attacks at work happen suddenly and without warning. They do not care about sports rankings and they follow no game rules. Mr. Franklinโs corporate defence workshops teach your people to get away from danger fast and stay safe, instead of treating self-defence like a sport match.
Fact Check ~ Our Self Defence Workshops
- Works for Everyone : Girls, women, small people and large people all get equal protection. Size and strength do not matter.
- Real Modern Threats : Covers actual workplace attacks, people you know who turn dangerous, and situations that happen in real life today.
- Simple Moves That Work : Easy, natural movements your body remembers automatically, even when you are scared or panicking.
- Any Clothing Works : Works whether you wear a business suit, sari, skirt or any traditional dress. No special outfit needed.
- Mental Skills Included : Teaches your mind to stay calm, recognise danger early and turn fear into action, not just physical moves.
- Handles Known Attackers : Trains for people you know, workplace bullying and attacks by trusted people, not just strangers.
- No Fitness Required : You do not need to be fit or sporty. You learn protection skills in days, not years.
- Real Places, Real Situations : Built around your actual office, daily travel, parking and the real spaces you walk through every day.
Fact Check ~ Martial Arts Self Defence Workshops

- Complicated Moves Fail Under Fear : Teaches hard combinations you forget when you panic. Your brain cannot recall difficult steps when scared.
- Clothing Problems : High kicks and fancy footwork do not work in a sari, skirt or business suit. The moves become dangerous or impossible.
- Body Skills Only : Teaches only physical moves. Ignores your mind, fear control and how to stay calm under stress.
- Only Stranger Scenarios : Trains you for attacks by strangers. Misses workplace bullying and attacks by people you know or trust.
- Needs Ongoing Fitness : Demands you stay sporty and practise regularly. Most busy workers cannot keep up with this demand.
- Generic Situations : Uses standard training that does not match your actual office, real travel or true daily surroundings.
Specialist Franklin Joseph teaches your people to spot danger before it happens and escape before violence starts, using Pre-Crime Indicator Recognition (spotting warning signs early) and Anti-Freeze Fear Management (stopping your body from locking up in fear).

Crime Reality ~ Krav Maga Bengaluru Perspective
Competitive martial arts are governed by fixed rulebooks, while offenders answer to no rulebook whatsoever. Few people set out to find trouble, yet it can catch anyone off guard. Those who prey on others take advantage of distraction, isolation, nerves or physical weakness in order to rob, hurt or overpower a target. What follows draws on Specialist Franklin Joseph’s teaching for Krav Maga students. It concentrates on how offenders think, the tricks they rely on and the way real attacks actually unfold.
Many people believe crime is confined to “bad” individuals in “bad” neighbourhoods, or that women carry the greatest risk. NCRB figures tell a fuller story. Men make up most of the victims of murder, robbery and serious injury, while women are more often the targets of sexual assault and domestic abuse. In both groups, offenders generally choose ordinary, law-abiding people who seem absorbed, alone or unprepared, because such people are easier to catch off guard and subdue. Awareness and straightforward self-defence skills are therefore equally valuable to men and women.
- Crime is Not a Fair Fight: Violent offences arrive without referees, without rules and without any assurance of a safe exit. Attackers may depend on surprise, threats, weapons or accomplices to get ahead of you before you understand what is happening.
- Crime Gives Little or No Warning: Many assaults begin with almost nothing noticeable. Catching unusual behaviour, doubtful positioning and subtle cues early could give you the seconds you need to step away.
- Crime Has Hidden Weapons and Multiple Attackers: Never assume the person facing you is unarmed or acting alone. Concealed objects and sudden extra people can escalate a minor argument into a lethal incident.
- Fitness Isn’t Enough to Fight Crime: Strength, gym work and coloured belts offer no guarantees. They have their value, but genuine aggression brings surprises, weapons, cramped spaces and uneven odds.
- Longer Fights Mean Greater Danger: The longer a confrontation drags on, the higher the risk of injury, of a weapon appearing and of further assailants joining in. Here, getting away is the measure of success, not outlasting your opponent.
- Criminals Exploit Vulnerability: Some offenders target people who look preoccupied, disconnected, careless or prone to panic. Staying alert and responding with a calm head can lower the danger you face.
- Criminals Use Deception Before Violence: To close the distance and pull your attention away, they may ask harmless-sounding questions, invent urgency, request a favour, bump into you or feign friendliness.
- Crime is Unpredictable: A routine encounter can turn violent within seconds. Intricate technique usually collapses under heavy pressure, so simple, practical responses drilled repeatedly are far more dependable.
- In Real Crime, Fear Can Freeze You: A sudden threat may trigger panic, hesitation, stiffness or clumsy movement. Genuine Krav Maga drills teach you to recognise these reactions in yourself and act regardless.
- Danger Has No Fixed Location: Attacks can happen at home, at the office, in car parks, lifts, stairwells, vehicles, transport hubs, busy roads or deserted places. Your surroundings shape both the risk and the way out.
- Smart Escape Is Victory: Genuine self-defence isn’t about overpowering attackers or showing off. It means spotting hazards, avoiding pointless confrontations, creating space and leaving safely.
- Violence Has Consequences: Even a justified response can cause injury, legal trouble and lasting emotional harm. Prevention, calming situations and keeping well clear of force wherever possible remain vital.
The Reality of Self-Defence: Krav Maga training cannot remove danger or promise a painless result. Sound training can, however, help you notice threats sooner, choose more wisely under pressure and develop practical ways to protect yourself and retreat. The aim is not to be fearless or flawless, but to be more alert, better prepared and more capable whenever your safety is at stake.

Why Traditional Martial Arts Fail Against Real Crime
Classical martial disciplines certainly build physical fitness and self-discipline, yet they were never designed with present-day personal safety in mind. Real offenders pay no heed to martial etiquette, timed bouts or set choreography. They depend instead on ambushes, deception, weapons and greater numbers. Traditional schools grew out of competition, belt grading and disciplined dojo routines, not out of the disorderly, unfair violence that Specialist Franklin Joseph trains Bengaluru students to recognise, interrupt and escape.
Rigid Rules vs. Unfair Crime: Dojo sessions run within tight guidelines and safety buffers. Criminals disregard every one of these, attacking without warning, pulling weapons and fighting dirty in ways that sport practice never prepares you for.- Not Designed for Sudden Attacks: Standard drills begin only once both partners are set and have bowed. Genuine assaults arrive from nowhere and may connect before you even register that a fight has started.
- Obsolete Focus on Post-Attack Response: Conventional teaching concentrates mainly on what to do once violence has broken out. Recognising a threat, reading hostile intent and stepping away before blows fly receive scant attention.
- Weight Classes Create Illusion: Martial systems presume evenly matched partners of similar build. A woman, teenager or smaller person may face a far larger, stronger attacker who is not holding back.
- Incapable of Handling Hidden Weapons: Empty-handed forms overlook concealed knives, bottles and other improvised weapons. Training only against unarmed partners leaves you exposed to anyone carrying a weapon.
- Belts and Forms Are Meaningless in Street Crime: Ranks and set patterns impress during studio gradings but break down in narrow alleys, crowded pavements or dimly lit car parks, where stylised moves simply cannot be carried out.
- Ignores Real Fear and Adrenaline Freezing: Martial teaching values technical accuracy above psychological strain. It hardly readies you for the sudden rush, pounding heart and physical locking-up that real danger brings on.
- Flawed Goal of Staying to Fight: Competition rewards points, knockouts and stamina across rounds. In real danger, each extra second spent exchanging blows raises the likelihood of serious injury or death. Getting out quickly matters most.
- Blind to Modern Scams and Distractions: Martial training is largely physical and rarely covers the staged set-ups criminals favour, such as false calls for help, diversions designed to pull your attention elsewhere and manufactured accidents.
- Complex Movements Fail Under Extreme Stress: Spinning kicks and elaborate combinations impress onlookers, but adrenaline overrides fine motor control. Ornate techniques usually fall apart once fear takes hold.
- Trapped in Gym Settings: Training on padded floors in open, brightly lit halls leaves you unprepared for lifts, stairwells, poorly lit corridors, vehicles or the uneven ground that everyday life presents.
- Outdated Concept of “Winning”: Martial arts centre on beating an opponent or winning a trophy. In real violence, pursuing a “win” is risky. Leaving unharmed is the only victory that truly matters.
- Completely Obsolete Against Multiple Attackers: Classical methods assume a lone opponent and fall apart against coordinated assaults:
- Physical Limits: Martial techniques are not built to handle several people grabbing or striking you at the same time.
- Zero Margin for Error: Traditional sparring ignores how quickly a second or third attacker can reach your side or draw a weapon.
- Critical Delay: Responding with rigid, formal movements wastes vital seconds and allows a crowd or gang to surround and pin you.
- Sensory Overload: Systems built around a single adversary do not train the mind to process threats arriving from several directions at once, which can cause mental paralysis.
Rigid Rules vs. Unfair Crime: Dojo sessions run within tight guidelines and safety buffers. Criminals disregard every one of these, attacking without warning, pulling weapons and fighting dirty in ways that sport practice never prepares you for.Area Compared | Shortcomings of Classical Martial Arts | Approach in Group Weekend Classes | Approach in Private Fast-Track |
|---|---|---|---|
Main Goal | Set forms, grades and outdated methods | A survival mindset focused on real street threats | Evade, halt and escape quickly |
Design Focus | Built for controlled contests and tournaments | Handling sudden attacks in the street | Spotting danger early and leaving |
Rule Structure | Governed by strict ring or dojo rules | Street-oriented practice with no limits | Real-world street tactics used without boundaries |
Warning Signs | Offers nothing on sensing danger before a strike lands | Group exercises for spotting threats | One-on-one awareness coaching |
Size/Strength Gaps | Hides mismatches behind weight divisions | Realistic group scenarios with unequal odds | Shaped around the specific weak points of your body |
Fear & Stress | Overlooks shock, panic and freezing | High-pressure drills that feel genuine | Intense, lifelike one-on-one scenario training |
Weapons & Attackers | Poorly equipped for armed or multi-person attacks | Multiple-attacker training at its core | Tailored to the threat profile of your own surroundings |
Time to Learn | Very gradual, often taking years | Practical skills within weeks or months | Quick progress within days |
Training Focus | Rigid drills and flashy moves | Fighting strategy and functional fitness | Core survival techniques and stopping threats |
Definition of Winning | Collecting trophies or points | Walking away from dangerous street confrontations | Stopping crime before it happens |
Train for Reality, Not Tradition: Traditional martial arts offer fitness and cultural depth, but their rigid structures break down against violent street crime. What you need instead are simple, instinctive responses, quick recognition of hazards and firm decisions under stress. Krav Maga fills the gaps traditional systems leave: it helps you detect danger early, respond directly and get away without delay.

Krav Maga Bengaluru versus Real Crime
80% Psychological Strategies and Warrior Mindset | 20% Krav Maga Tactics
Picture the moment a street attacker charges at you. The entire assault is planned to be over within 1 to 2 seconds, because the aggressor dreads being caught. Specialist Franklin Joseph, known as ‘Dr. Safety’, points out a telling parallel: escaping your own panic freeze also takes roughly 1 to 2 seconds. If you disrupt one or two of the three or four steps the attacker has rehearsed, the whole plan collapses before any backup can take shape. That gives us the formula: a psychological strategy and warrior mindset to create the will to act, combined with 20% Krav Maga tactics to stop the threat or get clear.
As the Core Threat Matrix makes clear, predators select a target and plan their approach before the victim notices anything. That is exactly the gap that Private Fast-Track Science is built to close, converting the freeze reflex into purposeful action within that short window.
Captain Smit Machchhar’s survival aboard flight FZ1073 holds a practical lesson for everyone. With no military or combat background, he drew on five core mental drives: Protective, Strategic, Survival, Never-Give-Up and Forward-Focus. His account shows that courage is not limited to professionals and that ordinary people can meet danger head on. Structured practice lets you develop those same qualities. Further detail appears in the article Captain Smit Machchhar’s reflections and the five instincts every Krav Maga Bengaluru student should develop (80% psychological, 20% physical).
“True Warrior Mindset isn’t the absence of fear. It’s training yourself so that fear doesn’t choose your path. Captain Machchhar proved that a prepared mind can push even a gravely wounded, bleeding man to drag himself towards the exit and summon help.”
Founder and Chief Executive ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
10 July 2025
Complete account of Captain Smit Machchhar | Breakdown of the five instincts
Private Fast-Track capsule training across Bengaluru and elsewhere
Every one of Captain Machchhar’s decisions reflected these five drives. His Protective Instinct kept his attention on protecting the aircraft, his crew and his wish to see his children again. His Strategic Instinct powered rapid threat assessment and pointed him towards the door so he could raise the alarm. Drawing on pure Survival Instinct, he fended off axe blows despite never having trained for combat. His Never-Give-Up Instinct sustained him through his fight against losing consciousness. Lastly, his Forward-Focus Instinct kept him fixed on workable escape routes instead of surrendering to fear. Together these drives form the 80% psychological core of self-defence. The full explanation is in the 5 Instincts article.
When Specialist Franklin Joseph first presented the 80/20 model to Krav Maga Bengaluru learners, many were doubtful. Newcomers expected punches, kicks and sparring, and were surprised that the mind, rather than the body, determines the outcome. Drawing on more than two decades of teaching NSG Commandos, IAS and IPS officers, corporate staff and everyday people, the method has consistently proven itself: the psychological response activates first, and if it fails, the physical response never gets its chance.
- Some Mindset Shifts Happen in a Heartbeat; Others Build Over Months : Captain Machchhar’s change came instantly, as a routine flight turned into a fight inside a sealed cockpit within moments. Most Krav Maga students advance more gradually through repeated stress drills and scenario work. Both routes are legitimate. The key idea is that the brain can recondition its fear-and-freeze responses far faster than most people assume, provided training targets the right neural reflexes instead of endlessly repeating physical choreography.
- The Mind Outlasts Every Physical Resource : Muscles fatigue. Bones fracture. Breath gives out. A disciplined mind does not hit the same ceilings. Captain Machchhar’s body weakened under heavy blood loss and repeated axe wounds, yet his thinking kept searching for the cockpit door, weighing options and refusing to give up. Krav Maga emphasises mental resilience because psychologically trained awareness can compensate for almost any physical disadvantage, whether in size, strength, weapons or numbers.
Two Krav Maga Training Paths, Two Distinct Objectives
- Private Fast-Track Capsules concentrate on the decisive instant before a crime takes shape, and on getting out before a follow-up action, such as an accomplice joining in, a weapon appearing or an effort to restrain you, can get underway.
- Group Weekend Classes get trainees ready for lengthy clashes with bigger, stronger, armed or outnumbering assailants, steadily building stamina in body and mind.
- Every additional assailant cuts the odds of a safe outcome by roughly 50 to 80 percent, so disrupting the attacker’s plan within the first 1 to 2 seconds and leaving early is always the smarter option.
- Private Fast-Track Capsules are right for busy people who want results from a single intensive 4-hour session or from sessions split across 1, 2 or 4 weekends.
- Group Weekend Classes appeal to those seeking lasting fitness, consistent skill development and the motivation that comes from training alongside regular partners.
- Both formats are grounded in the same combat science principles and deal with the same pre-attack threat patterns described above.
- Private Fast-Track Capsules in general: Krav Maga Private Fast-Track Capsules

Trust that you will be able to act when the moment comes. Captain Machchhar was no trained fighter; he was a pilot who had quietly built mental readiness long before that day. That calm conviction, combined with the urge to protect others, set him apart from the paralysis that overwhelms most people. The Warrior Mindset is not inherited. It is a skill anyone can develop once they decide to begin.
Put simply, courage without technique leaves you brave but exposed, while technique without courage leaves you capable but frozen. The psychological strategies and warrior mindset of the 80% provide the impulse to act, and the Krav Maga tactics of the 20% provide the means to follow through. Only together do they form a complete, real-world self-defence system.

‘The Science of Combat’ ~ TEDx Talk by Franklin Joseph in Bengaluru
In this powerful TEDx presentation, Franklin Joseph, a specialist with two decades in Israeli Military Krav Maga Self Defense and a combat science analyst, recounts his own childhood trauma and his run-ins with street violence. He explains how reverse engineering those painful experiences produced practical defence methods that ordinary people can apply.
Guruji Franklin Joseph sets classical martial arts, which he considers outdated sporting formats, against modern combat science. The latter is grounded in physics, leverage and human psychology, and prepares anyone for violent encounters. During demonstrations he invites audience volunteers onstage and shows how applied biomechanics can neutralise grabs, knife attacks and chokeholds.
- A plastic fork picked up from a lunch table illustrated how everyday objects become weapons in an attacker’s hands.
- A smaller female volunteer used combat science principles effectively, hitting the attacker’s weak thumb leverage to break free from a strong grip.
- The talk stresses that 80% of effective self-protection comes from mental toughness (Warrior Mindset), while only 20% relies on physical execution.
- He ended with an affecting lion-and-lioness comparison, showing that strategic teamwork and mental resolve outweigh brute strength.

Student Reviews
Unique way of learning and one will know why Franklin Joseph Krav Maga stands out from other martial arts or fighting techniques. Highly recommend training in Bengaluru when it comes to street fights, road rage incidents and shift of mindset to be self dependent and capable of handling unforseen threat. We train to survive.
I recently completed the Krav Maga 1:1 Fast-Track Capsule on hand grabs and chokes with Franklin sir, and it was truly a game changer. More than the physical techniques, the biggest impact was the mindset shift, from feeling vulnerable to thinking like a warrior.
Since I was a little girl, my parents always encouraged me to take part in some sort of defense classes, but they never really excited me. Many years later I found this class and decided to join. We learned how to punch, kick, etc., but we were also taught how to use various tactics in different situations and what truly intrigued me is how our teacher taught us about the psychology behind each tactic and also the psychology on how a criminals mind works and how we can use that to our advantage.
