Martial Arts

IVA Institute is an institution of higher learning and proud to offer a Bachelor's Degree, Master’s

Degree and Doctorate Degree in martial arts studies. While martial arts studies at the University

level has long been a part of academic life in Asia, IVA’s program is unique in that it combines a

wide range of liberal arts courses with martial arts practice.

The program offered explores four aspects of the martial arts:

1. Historical background and philosophical roots of the martial arts.

2. Languages and cultures of the societies in which the martial arts originated and

developed.

3. In-depth study of at least one of the martial arts.

4. Psychosocial dimensions of the martial arts and their impact upon personality and

society.

It has long been argued that through study of the martial arts, people develop a measurable

sense of accomplishment and a mastery of mind over body, contributing to greater self -esteem.

Through the teacher-student relationship the martial arts student embarks on a voyage of self-

discovery and learns the importance of respect and regard for others.

Executive Protection

Today’s executive protection officers need to have a global mindset and deep knowledge in

international security. IVA’s Executive Protection has a focus on international executive

protection studies for this exact reason. Through the core courses, students learn about

strategy in the international executive protection environment, how global security works and

how to communicate in an international environment, while allowing students to deepen their

knowledge in their research topic in executive protection, thus helping them to become experts

in their field.

The Executive Protection program is designed to give the professional in the executive

protection field or the student who is considering getting in the field, a firm understanding of:

defensive tactics, agent-client relations, vehicle security, threat assessment, perimeter security,

basic team management and advance work, gathering intelligence, identifying potential

hazards, providing protective services to dignitaries and advance work, which is required for

preparation, and avoidance of conflict.
