Yuly gave a comprehensive presentation on personal safety and conflict de-escalation for a group of our employees.

The content was incisive and eye opening and the training provided easily accessible yet highly effective skills for reducing or avoiding dangerous situations.

Yuly has unique insights and is both patient and thorough and I would recommend him highly both to expert and novices in the safety and security field.

We engaged Yuly to provide security and self defense training to our team  based in Nairobi and abroad. As it was during COVID, the training was delivered virtually.

What was unique about Yuly’s approach was how practical and memorable his tips were that anyone could learn to increase their safety. While this was 4 years ago, some of my team members who participated still refer to the training.”

“Yuly is an exceptional speaker and trainer, transforming how diverse groups—from corporate teams and law enforcement to families—approach communication, safety, and awareness. His dynamic style brings fresh energy to life readiness training, turning typically dry material into engaging, hands-on experiences that prepare participants for real-world challenges, from customer service and frontline engagement to crowd violence and active shooter scenarios.

After my team endured a terrorist attack, I was referred to Yuly to support their recovery and improve their situational preparedness. For my own recovery and preparedness, I trained intensively with Yuly over two months. His eye-opening approach revealed that years of martial arts training or living in NYC to SF and Nairobi weren’t enough to prepare me for real threats and underscored the importance of owning my own preparedness. Yuly’s expertise is truly indispensable in today’s world. ”

“I wanted to increase my self-confidence while evolving in extreme hostile environment and went to Yuli Grosman to acquire a few additional survival skills.

Thinking out of the box Yuly tailored course content and schedule to fit my special needs. His no nonsense and actionable knowledge transfer approach worked very well. I would warmly recommend his services to anyone with highly technical training requirements from beginners to highly experienced SF operators.”

“I worked with Yuly during my tenure as Managing Director for an organization in Kenya. I contracted him for a security awareness workshop with my team, and his sessions where at the same time informative, useful, and entertaining.

I strongly recommend him, both as a speaker and security expert.

I had the pleasure of working with Yuly Grosman during his consulting tenure at Wells Fargo Kenya, where I was the Operations Director. Yuly proved to be an invaluable asset to our company, not only for his expertise in security matters but also for his exceptional skills as a manager and instructor.

Yuly’s ability to convey complex security concepts in a clear and engaging manner was impressive. His expertise and knowledge in the security field were evident as he provided insightful consultations that significantly contributed to enhancing our company safety measures.

What set Yuly apart was his dedication to empowering our team through training sessions focused on de-escalating confrontations and improving communication. Given that our employees interacted with a diverse clientele, both corporate and domestic, on a daily basis, Yuly’s seminars played a pivotal role in elevating our communication and customer care standards. Beyond the professional realm, I had the opportunity to train with Yuly in his Krav Maga classes outside of working hours. His teaching approach, emphasizing easy learning skills and prioritizing communication before physical techniques, showcased his commitment to fostering a comprehensive understanding of self-defense.

Yuly is not just a knowledgeable and trustable expert in the security field; he is a dynamic speaker and instructor who genuinely cares about the development and well-being of those he works with. I wholeheartedly recommend Yuly to any organization seeking a professional who can effectively communicate, educate, and make a lasting impact on both individuals and teams.
