This study aims to reveal the arrival of Krav Magá in the State of Amapá, record dates and precursors of the modality, as well as describe the contemporary aspects of this self-defense system. Krav Magá is an Israeli self-defense system, created by Imi Litchenfeld in the 1940s. In Brazil, this system began in 1990, in Rio de Janeiro, and from then on it expanded throughout the Brazilian states. This research with a qualitative approach used the methodology of oral history, having as a methodological instrument a semi-structured interview, in which the subject of the research was one of the first practitioners in Amapá. After carrying out this research, there is – at the time – an army corporal as the initiator of Krav Magá in Amapá, around the 2000s. After the introductory process of Krav Magá, who continued the work with the modality was Sandro Coelho, subject of this research.
