The HaganaH Blog

Stu Bryant tested for his Black Belt in HaganaH in January of 2009, at the Annual HaganaH Conference.

On September 17th of 2011 I personally promoted Stu to 2nd Degree Black Belt while I was at his school. I also taught a couple Israeli Trench Fighting techniques out of my upcoming curriculum I will be deploying in November at the National HaganaH HQ’s during the Israeli Trench Fighting Certification. Black Belt testing is done in HaganaH only once, we call it “Going Through The Fire” so to speak, further promotion to higher degree Black Belts are due to dedication of teaching our system and representing our system at a high standard!

Also, while I am working diligently to have the HaganaH NUCLEUS website ready for launch on October 1st , I am using this post to make a Special Announcement.

Stu’s school is the Only school nationwide, other than the National HaganaH HQ’s in Davie, to be a Platinum NUCLEUS School!

Congrats Stu….honors well deserved!!!

P.S. they are four levels of NUCLEUS schools: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. The new website will explain this school ranking system in detail….

Ultimate Blade Survival For CQB All Out Attacks, Rarely Seen Bayonet Defenses And Savage Knife Fighting For Confined Environments!

Techniques will cover Golani “Face-To-Face” Combat , LOTAR CQB use of the assault riffle as a viscous impact weapon and Advance Reverse Grip Israeli Tactical Knife fighting (ITK)

Come learn how Golani warriors approach the most dangerous environment in modern warfare, the trenches. No other unit within the IDF has more experience than the Golani Brigade in this particular method of warfare, as necessity has always been the ultimate mother of invention!

This is not a required certification module, it is an advanced optional certification perfect for the already accomplished FIGHT Instructor and a great continuous education for ITK Instructors and a great opportunity for any individual who attended any of our IPTT courses to see how we approach blade work. If you are a Martial Arts School Owner, FIGHT Instructor, Military Counter Insurgent Instructor or Law Enforcement Defensive Tactics Instructor this is a perfect certification for you to attend and bring the learned material to teach in your school or agencies in a seminars based formats per subjects of the training.
