It’s no secret that in recent times Crown Heights has seen too much violent crime. Shootings, muggings, knifepoint hold-ups, assault. The list goes on. It seems that almost every week, a new video is shared displaying a Jewish man being attacked by a stranger.
Such things should have no place in our society, but it is almost impossible to police against random physical attacks. All over social media, people have been expressing their shock at the wave of violence, and there has been much discussion about what can be done.
In an effort to equip the community with measures of protection, Raziel Cohen of NDF Training is holding a Personal & Home Defense Seminar in Crown Heights on Monday, January 28.
Cohen, Head Instructor of NDF Training (and also known as ‘The Tactical Rabbi’), will be teaching residents how to create a defense plan for their homes, and will give them tools to understand and control violent situations.
“By being more situationally aware,” says Cohen, “you can learn to detect early signs of danger, and protect yourself from harm.”
In July 2018, Cohen was one of only seven Californians selected to join a Special Forces training class. The class was led by an active duty Navy SEAL and a member of Australian Special Forces.
Cohen is a certified instructor under the Department of Justice, and has multiple certifications under the NRA.

Kudos to Raziel for taking the initiative at educating himself in the proficient and tactical use of firearms and applying that knowledge in the instruction of others to do the same (I see from the steel target speed run in your promo video, that you are looking to become the “Jewish Jerry Miculek”). There is an old acronym; “ABN” which stands for: “Anything is better than nothing,” which I think holds very true to the upcoming course which you are offering in CH. Yes, situational awareness is very important. Yes, tactical and hemostatic field medicine is a must for anyone… Read more »
Many frum people practice target shooting here in Brooklyn
15 minutes away from CH
Coming to Miami?
I love how they made this class for men and women! Looking forward to joining the course!
We must never need permission from a totalitarian for self preservation, the Jewish people understand this better than anyone what happens when you sacrifice liberty for “safety”. The pressure on those representing citizens must be unrelenting, unified, vocal, and most importantly organized and we’ll funded. The anti 2A push has all this, that’s why they have been so successful (unfortunately) at disarming citizens and creating defenseless victims even with massive caveat, they portray anyone pro 2A as a “gun nut” and boldly misrepresent,, outright lie, distort facts, and with great hubris they manipulate statistics.

Is it for women as well?
Its sad that this is what CH has resulted to but I think its long overdue. An unexpected attack could happen to any of us or families.
Wish we could carry in NY…
A true chossid if the rebbe what I love about him and why I recommend him is how much he enjoys helping people!
The care and belief in a person is the most important when it comes to training love you raziel keep on making people laugh
They should let the yeshiva bochurim go to the seminar.

Raziel is the best person to teach such a course. He is an expert at self defense and is also a great teacher, I highly recommend this class for everyone!
Took the class in LA. Absolutely astonishing how much I did not know. I would highly recommend it for anyone who’s willing to learn.

May Hashem keep you safe, and continue giving us NACHAS
You don’t need a firearm to join the class. It’s a seminar that helps people who can’t have one protect themselves in other ways. What an incredible idea!

Raziel we are all very proud of you , not only you are a true soldier of HaShem but you also truly work hard to make the Jewish people more aware of their potential so that they could live in a safer place . Thank you for your dedication , spirituality as well as physically.
I can’t stress enough the importance of being trained to be situationally aware and have the knowledge to know what to do when danger sneaks up from behind. I wish I can send my whole family to this class However we don’t live in CH. Raziel, Raztaz, keep up the great work!! Zrico Alhaesh.
Especially at times like this it’s very important to be prepared and informed. This seems like a perfect time and opportunity to educate ourselves in this area. So glad that their is finally a from, chassidish, RELATABLE young man who has taken it on himself this great responsibility. Kol hakavod!
