Itamar (איתמר) is a complete martial art developed by Itamar Hofler as a synthesis of his martial studies, philosophy, and religious beliefs. Translated it means "Not one bitter cell". Itamar is also an acronym for (I) Itamar (TA) Tactical (M) Martial (AR) Art. Sensei Hofler's goal in developing Itamar was to help people develop and cultivate themselves to a high level of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual understanding, thru real life training.

Itamar is an internal, edged weapon martial art which is based on the principal of redirecting negative (evil) energy away from you and sending it back to where it came from with love. Spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically. It is based on four main foundational principals, which are applied to the true martial philosophy of one step, one strike or move, one person paralyzed or dead. All strikes, kicks, and techniques are based on ancient secrets of activation of energy centers and extension of chi/Ki. Coupling modern science (anatomy, physiology) and the ancient poison hand techniques with the different vortex's in the body and the extension of Ki/chi, the practitioner is able to render any attacker of any size with any weapon, harmless.

Itamar is a compilation of the truth and wholeness of a real martial art. It is the totality of the energy direction and redirection of the G-D energy in all of us. Itamar main foundation is of the highest and purest level of sincerity. Understanding that sincerity is complete and pure action. Being that the highest form of sincerity is love and the highest form of love (inconceivable) is G_D. It is this extension of pure love that allows the overcoming, overtaking of the attacker. An Itamar practitioner understands that all of his actions weather punch, kick, technique, stick/knife, firearm are all directed and controlled by G_D’s will and not his own.
