About Stephen
I have trained and certified with the Leading Krav Maga Federations in the US, as well as training and certifying to 2nd Degree Black Belt with the governing body of Krav Maga in Tel-Aviv, Israel.
I have trained and taught in Israel, CA, VA, PA, NC, as well as a recurring instructor at International Krav Camp.
I have used Krav Maga in real-world scenarios against armed and unarmed attackers. My passion lies in empowering people to take their own safety into their hands and see their self-confidence and fighting spirit grow. Everyone should be able to have the ability to defend themselves!
I had several situations growing up where I wished I knew self defense, so I began looking at local self defense schools that are specialized in efficient and effective self defense. That search brought me to Krav Maga!
I started training 17hrs per week, took my first belt test 2mo after the start of my training, and then certified to teach the end of that same year.
I worked private security in downtown Raleigh, certified as an instructor with a local federation, later traveled to Nashville, TN for another certification, traveled to Drexel Hill, PA for a black belt test, and have belt tested for every Krav Maga level (Levels 1-5) prior to black belt.
Each Belt test was 4-5 hours, and each Instructor certification was either 3 days for 10hrs, or 7 days for 8hrs of non-stop training with the top Krav Maga instructors in the country.
My 1st Degree Black Belt test was 2 Days long with a total of 15hrs of testing.
I have taught for 7 years, and used Krav Maga in real world scenarios against armed and unarmed assailants.

I correspond via email, call, or text and inquire about their short term and long term goals.
From there, I created a lesson plan tailored to help them achieve their specific goals.
I also encourage students to record on their phone so they can see the improvement from where they started at the beginning of the journey.
I have worked with a Kid's Program, Young Adult program, primarily Adults (ages 18-70), as well as Law Enforcement, Military (active and retired) and a seminar for a Local SWAT team.
Make sure they work with you! Krav Maga is designed to adapt with the times, and provide adaptations of techniques to be applicable to all ages, abilities, strengths, or disabilities as long as the adaptations don't violate the principles of Krav Maga.
I recently traveled to Virginia for a 3 day "Krav Maga Camp", where I trained 8hrs a day with former Israeli Special Forces, BJJ Specialists, Muay Thai Specialists, FMA specialists, and Law Enforcement.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
What do you want to gain from training?
Strength, conditioning, mobility, agility, weight loss, muscle gain? Overcome the freeze reaction and access flight or fight? Reaction training?
Think of your short term and long term goals and communicate those!

Stephen is, by far, my favorite Krav Maga instructor in the Triangle area.
It's clear that he's on a mission to teach the most realistic, practical, and effective self-defense training. He focuses on perfecting your form and technique to increase overall strength and driving output, while also teaching you how to strategize and navigate different scenarios--single attacker, multiple attackers, knife, and gun drills are all within his scope.
Stephen consistently challenges himself to learn more about other styles, like Muy Thai, making him an even stronger Krav instructor. He has the kind of drive and motivation that inspires you to want to learn more and dive in too. With his knowledge and humor alone, you'll find yourself looking forward to his classes every single week!
I can confidently say that his personal training has drastically improved my defensive and offensive strategy, form, strength, and speed. 10/10 would recommend him as your instructor too!!I've worked with Ronin for many years. They create a knowledgeable, fun, and versatile environment to learn.
