Krav Maga is the official self defense and fighting system of the Israeli Defense Forces and many U.S. law enforcement and military agencies train in the system. This highly effective, easy to learn method of self defense is the best we’ve found that enables us to teach it to someone that has had no prior training.

A mix of karate, muay thai kickboxing, jiu jitsu and ground fighting, Krav Maga was developed so that any adult regardless of age, gender or size will learn to effectively deal with a violent encounter and learn to manage fear, stress and disadvantage. Although Krav Maga is primarily a hand to hand combat system, it also has a strong group of techniques for defending against an attack with a stick, knife of firearm.

Krav Maga is a principle based system of self defense. Some of the basic principles of the system are:

• movement should be based on natural instinct
• techniques must address the immediate danger
• one defense must work against a variety of attacks
• training must include the stress found in a real attack
• all movements must be accessible to the average person, not just athletes or martial artists.
