Born in Jerusalem but lived in France until the age of 16.
Moved back to Israel to join the Army.
Claims he got a military diploma from Imi.
Funny that on the picture below he was a green belt and Imi was already out of the army and looks very old.
Richard was born in Jerusalem in 1956 and Imi retired from the army in 1964.
This means pushed to the maximum that he was 8 when he got his military diploma he states he got on his website.
He also states he was appointed by Imi to teach Krav Maga around the world.
Richard taught Krav Maga to the GIGN (French elite unit) and it wasn't long before he was spreading this around the world and on martial arts magazines.
The unit likes discretion and soon found somebody else to teach them as too much publicity was being made.
Richard claims to teach Krav Maga to the Mossad.
