Mr. Brayman started his martial arts journey at a young age and grew up training with his father, brothers, and friends. He has dedicated over 34 years of his life to teaching, learning, and honing his martial arts expertise,
He has been on a transformative journey that includes traditional
martial arts, security operations, and combat arts.
Early on in his journey and training he recognized the crucial distinction between training in the martial arts and preparing for real-world combat scenarios. This realization spurred his deep dive into the security field.
His quest for practical combat knowledge led him through
various realms of security work, including nightclub and event security, executive protection, and comprehensive field testing of combat techniques.
It was within the dynamic environment of nightclub security, spanning Boston to NYC, that he gained invaluable insights into the realities of true weapon defense and combat strategy—a stark contrast to the theoretical teachings prevalent in many martial arts circles.
In the late ‘90s, Mr. Brayman was introduced to Krav Maga and this was a pivotal moment in his training and personal quest to find a true combat system that teaches true self-defense. Krav Maga's focus on evolving tactics and understanding the demands of modern combat, resonated deeply with Mr. Brayman and matched his own personal philosophy. Eager for deeper understanding and continued
growth, he sought out connections to Israel-based instructors and expanded his expertise through rigorous training with top Krav Maga practitioners in the world.
As he continued his journey, he delved into the intricacies of
human behavior under stress, exploring how individuals respond in combat and self-defense situations. This exploration culminated in the development of Krav Maga Shield—a system rooted in instinctual responses, a core tenet of the original Krav Maga ethos.
His accomplishments include attaining the rank of 5th Dan in
Krav Maga, establishing and operating a state-accredited Security and Tactical Training Academy in Florida, and leading executive and personal protection security teams.
He has collaborated with law enforcement agencies and military units, leveraging his expertise to enhance their officers' and soldiers' tactical readiness and combat proficiency.
Through global travel and collaboration with elite trainers,
he remains committed to continuous learning, recognizing that the pursuit of knowledge in combat arts never ends nor should it.
Mr. Brayman's mission is to preserve the essence of Krav
Maga as a system based on instinctual, effective responses—free from the constraints of traditional martial arts practices that dilute its efficacy.
His journey is a testament to the belief that true mastery lies not in static knowledge, but in the relentless pursuit of evolution and
adaptation—a principle embodied in both his teachings and his life’s work.
