The Image Below is a sketch of the Kata "Bogia" which Kancho Raffi Liven recently developed for Giya Bolkvadzc of Russia.
These images are documents to Kancho Liven certifying him as a Krav Maga instructor
Kancho Liven was born in Tel Aviv on the 3rd
of
march, 1949 and has lived in Denmark since 1981.
Kancho Liven started training karate when he was 9 and got graduated with
the first Dan
at the age of
15.
Since then,
he has trained many different systems,
including:
karate, thai-boxing, kendo, judo, aikido, kobudo, kick-boxing and
full-contact karate in which he also won 2 European championships.
In 1967
Kancho Liven fought the 6-days war and in 1973 in the Yom-Kippur-war and
worked after as an instructor for the special forces in Israel.
After his time in the military he traveled a lot and went for a longer time
to Japan to train under the masters of the originally Okinawa-te and to take
part on many competitions. At all the places he came to he was invited to
teach Karate and self defence.
In 1980 the doctors found a malignant tumor in Shihan Livens sinus. Allready short after the dangerous surgery and irradiation he started slowly training again, and as he explains it himself the physically and mentally power which he dad developed through the many years of intensive training helped him to defeat the cancer. In 1981 Shihan Liven was invited to Norway to prepare the norwegian nationalteam for the European Championchip and there he found out that the cool climate was good for his health. He decided to settle down in a country with a climate like in Norway. At the end of 1981 he moved to Denmark and started his first school for Karate there.
As a way of keeping his mind and body fit, Kancho Liven practices Tamashiwari - The art of breaking - A discipline in which he is truly a master as he holds several world records!!
