Hi,I have trained with Ari many times over the past 9 or so years. He is an excellent instructor and has tremendously helped my development.Guided Chaos is an incredible art and Ari is an incredible instructor. Put the two together and you have a winning combination! Check him out!Best,Steve

The rare extremely proficient martial artist learns particular subtle yet critical physical movements. These movements are not taught outright or at the outset of any of the martial arts. Instead through the years of dedication and confrontation, the student learns these physicalitys through their years in acquiring proficiency.Ari is a master who shows us at the outset that the key detection of movement by a confronter and our innate instinctive movements we all have do make us extremely effective in dealing with any manner of attack.

Ari introduced me to Guided Chaos in Louisville in 2008. Those few hours changed just about everything I’ve done in the martial arts. I’ve worked with him numerous times since then. Ari has a way of explaning complex ideas in simple terms, and is an excellent instructor who has the skills to back up what he preaches.I’ve driven 4 1/2 hours one way for a few hours of training with him, and it’s been worth it. The people in Boca Raton have a gem down there. Hope they take advantage of it!

After decades of training in various forms I have found the holy grail of martial Arts. Guided Chaos is the REAL THING and Ari is one of the best GC instructors you could work with. If you want REAL, you have to check it out.

Through the years Ive met Masters and Grandmasters of Kung Fu, Shaolin, Wing Chun, MMA, BJJ, Walu and others. Guided Chaos is by far the most comprehensive and straighforward approach to martial arts Ive seen. It has all the sensitivity of Tai Chi while efficiently preparing you for multiple attackers, weapons etc. Ari is a phenomenal teacher. Theres no false pretense or ego as Ive seen in other schools. His hands on approach allows you to experience the power of this art while being guided into efficient ass kicking, one mind blowing insight after the next.

First, Guided Chaos is probably unlike anything you have experienced in other martial arts. Fighting with GC masters is like fighting ghosts who beat you with invisible sledgehammers - it is that eerie and that scary. Second, because it capitalizes on natural movement and capabilities that we are born with, I do believe that almost anyone can learn this art.Learning this art, though, is not accomplished by practicing codified katas or unrealistic techniques, because there are none! It is accomplished by capitalizing your own unique body type with all its capabilities (and limitations). This is where a good teacher is absolutely essential; you need a teacher to guide you to all that is possible within your sphere of influence.Not every expert fighter is an expert teacher - indeed, most are not. Fortunately, Ari is both a formidable fighter and an excellent teacher. I had the pleasure to work with Ari before he left for Florida. You will find him to be sensitive to your level of competence and patient with you as you screw up (everyone does, at least a little). The GC instructors have crossed swords (touched hands) with hundreds (if not thousands) of people of different skill levels, martial arts backgrounds, and body types over the years. Ari is no exception and this is crucial in helping transfer the art to others. You will undoubtedly find that he will help you raise your fighting skills to levels you did not imagine.

Ari is an excellent instructor of an an incredible self defense system. He helped get me started down this path with his passion for Guide Chaos.
