ABOUT

Avital Zeisler is a world-renowned hand-to-hand combat expert, published author, and wellness coach who has transformed women from all walks of life. This includes everyone from Hollywood actors like Amanda Seyfried and Keri Russell, to corporate executives, and those struggling to overcome trauma.  Avital began her exploration of self-defense to overcome the trauma associated with experiencing violence and sexual assault. After studying abroad and teaching self-defense, Avital consulted with neuroscientists, military personnel, law enforcement officials, security specialists, psychologists, and victims of abuse from around the world.  Avital's dedication to helping others prevent, survive and overcome the trauma associated with violence and sexual assault led her to create The Soteria Method®—a unique practice of self-defense, fitness, and self-discovery for women that arms practitioners with the tools to create, live, and protect a life they love.  Over the years, Avital's mission of inspiring others to embrace a holistic approach to self-defense has led to her recognition as a globally sought after personal security consultant and celebrity self-defense and fitness trainer. Avital is a Penguin Random House author and has shared her unique fusion of fitness and striking in her first book, Weapons of Fitness®. She is also a keynote speaker and has addressed thousands of people spreading her message of health, safety, and performance psychology. She has been featured on media outlets worldwide including The New York Times, GLAMOUR, ELLE, The Sunday Times and is a recurring security segment consultant for Fox News, Good Morning America, and the Today Show. She also does combat movement consulting for film/television and has prepared actors for shows including The Americans (FX), The Blacklist (NBC), Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (ABC), and more.  Over the past couple of years, Avital's career has expanded into the technology sector. Her gateway to the industry was the development of her first product (a safety compliance software) and she now holds the position as a co-founder of a tech start-up as she continues on her mission of advocating for the safety and wellness of others.
