The person behind the training
Maex Friedery
Co-founder · Diamond Defence
I’m Maex Friedery, co-founder of Diamond Defence. Whether you already have shooting experience or are just starting out, my goal is for you to apply what you learn safely and understand why we practise each step.
As a Certified Shooting Instructor II and former Territorial Grenadier, I emphasize a solid foundation, clear communication, and exercises with a defined objective. I have completed various training courses in CQB and VCQB and regularly participate in exercises and training sessions with foreign special forces, including in Poland and Hungary. These sessions introduce me to different approaches, and I bring useful insights back into our training. As an SSI Dive Instructor, I have taught diving to both private individuals and government officials in Thailand and Cambodia.
Away from the shooting range, I regularly compete in obstacle course races: I’ve likely completed over 100 OCR races to date, covering distances between 7 and 35 km. As a former W.M.T.A. Muay Thai trainer, I’ve remained loyal to this sport to this day. These experiences have taught me to stay focused under pressure, tackle challenges step by step, and convey skills in a way that’s easy to understand. Outside of the shooting range, I regularly compete in obstacle course races: I’ve now completed over 100 OCR races ranging from 7 to 35 km. As a former W.M.T.A. Muay Thai trainer, I’ve remained loyal to the sport to this day. These experiences have taught me to stay focused under pressure, tackle challenges step by step, and pass on my skills in a way that’s easy to understand. In my remaining free time, you’ll usually find me on my motorcycle, out in nature, or underwater.
«Experience is valuable. The ability to question it is even more valuable.»
Whether you are new to shooting or want to develop your skills, Diamond Defence offers progressive courses and personal guidance. We design training for security companies and public agencies.
