HOW WE TRAIN
KRAV MAGA - Dynamic, Practical, Effective.
Krav Maga is an extensive self defense system used by the Israeli Defense Forces for combat. It is recognized for its effectiveness, focusing on defending against violent, real-life attacks by use of quick, adaptive & aggressive techniques. Krav Maga is NOT to be mistaken for a fighting sport, martial art or mma. There are no rules when using Krav Maga fighting, because there are no rules in the street.
What does Krav Maga mean? From Hebrew, it translates as, “CONTACT COMBAT.” We take this meaning quite literally. Our Krav Maga training methods are dynamic, reality-based & involve full-contact. This provides the best possible understanding of what violence really looks like, really feels like, & how to handle it. We thrive on being challenged, but it’s within an environment that teaches you how to ADAPT techniques to work for you & how to apply aggression with control. There is no previous experience or fitness level required to learn Krav Maga.
Training with us is an EXPERIENCE …The best way to find out what we’re about is to come & EXPERIENCE IT FOR YOURSELF!
