Effective Self-Defense — Krav Maga!
Why Krav Maga?
Krav Maga (Hebrew: contact combat) is the most effective self-defense system available to civilians today. Developed for the Israeli Defense Forces by Imi Lichtenfeld, it is now used by over 400 agencies and special units worldwide — and taught to ordinary people in over 60 countries through the IKMF network.
Unlike traditional martial arts or sport-oriented disciplines, Krav Maga has a single purpose: to keep you safe. There are no rituals, no point-scoring, no weight classes. Every technique is built on your body’s natural reflexes and can be learned — and used under stress — in a relatively short time.
What you’ll learn
- How to read and avoid threatening situations before they escalate
- Practical striking: punches, kicks, elbows, knees
- Defense against grabs, chokes, pushes and common street attacks
- Defense against weapons: knife, stick, firearm threats
- Multiple-attacker scenarios
- Awareness and de-escalation tactics
Who it’s for
Krav Maga is for everyone — men and women, beginners and athletes, young and old. No prior experience in martial arts is needed. The system adapts to your body and your level, not the other way around.
We run dedicated groups for adults, women, children (7–11) and juniors (11–16).
