“What a great day. Learned so much from Idan Abolnik and Kalah South Africa. What an honour to have met this amazing guy!
Maurice Paige is such an inspiration. Taking on a completely different field and doing better than the guy who works in it. Such humble people! Enjoying our Magnum Boots Africa this weekend!”
TIMOTHY WRIGHT
“I’ve been in MA since 1970. Trained with many very well-known and excellent martial artists and back then, it wasn’t about money, belts, pretty Gi’s or notoriety. I grew up rough, spent many years as both a marine and inner city copy, and I have had more real fights than I want to remember.
I like Kalah. It is reality based, blunt force, down to the basics close quarter combat self defence system for actual combat. Yes, I’m a Kajukenbo Instructor who has studied many different systems. Yes they work, but to get to that “riding a bike” stage takes a lot of time – years! With Kalah, very fast, very effective, real life “get it done”. If I wasn’t 64 I would try it. “
RONALD FISHER
“Hello my name is Ronald Fisher. Firstly, thank God for Kalah System and God bless Idan. I live in Blantyre Malawi.
Last week I survived multiple attackers and one with a knife. They surrounded my car and asked for money and phones. I pleaded with them that they must allow me to come of the vehicle because the bag with money was in the back. When I came out they started beating me but I forced on the gun with weapon, I controlled him and managed to get the weapon. The guy was bleeding heavily. The second guy ran away and started stoning the car to rescue his friends.
Thank God I am a survivor, not a master. I came out with not a scratch, only the vehicle was damaged due to the stoning. God bless Idan for the gift of Kalah.”

“Me and my team have experimented with a few tactical systems and Kalah definitely, without a question, is the best and it is very difficult to disagree as we have put it to the test in a lot of scenarios.”
