What is it?
Krav Maga is a Self Defence System designed for dealing with realistic violent attacks. It is used by the Israeli Military and Secret Service, using the strongest and most effective points of many styles of fighting, thus creating a unique and complete program. This is also a system that is continually evolving as does the threat of violence in the world we live in.
Krav Maga was created by Imi Lichtenfeld in the 1930s, this system evolved from a variety of styles such as Judo, Boxing and Wrestling, and taught to the local Jewish community in Bratislava to help protect them.
When the country of Israel was created in 1948, Imi was invited to become the head instructor of the Israeli defence force I.D.F. Krav Maga has now become the main training system for all of the Israeli security services and has now been adopted worldwide by other intelligence and security forces.
We are now delighted to be able to offer this type of training to everyday people, to give them confidence and security that comes from learning an effective form of self defence. Firstly students are taught about awareness and reading the situation before violence erupts. Hopefully through this type of training your intuition and self awareness should help you avoid ending up in a bad situation. However, if this cannot be avoided we will teach you the reality of a violent attack and give you the tools necessary to give you a real fighting chance in a violent conflict.
Your training will start by teaching you the basics of position and balance, reading body language and trying to talk yourself out of a situation before it starts.

This is an intensive weeks training program covering a huge amount of situations and attacks to help give you a fighting chance in a real conflict.

Our Krav Maga self defence program will cover
Street Fighting
You will learn to deal with typical street attacks such as punches and kicks in a variety of situations. Firstly you will learn to block straight punches such as jabs and crosses, and also how to defend against hooks and uppercuts as well as a variety of different types of kicks. You will then learn how to strike back using your hands, feet, elbows and knees, with the idea that you should be able to finish a street fight as quickly and aggressively as possible so that you can escape safely.
Grabs and Strangles
This will cover every aspect of grabs such as wrist, shirt or someone grabbing you by the hair. You will also learn to deal with a variation of strangleholds, such as one and two-handed strangles from the front and back and also being violently strangled in a floor situation.
Ground Fighting
Whilst we try to avoid ending up on the ground as much as possible the reality is that most fights between men will end up on the ground, and the vast majority of attacks on women such as rape and sexual assault will also end up on the floor. You will learn how to fight, defend yourself on the floor and finish the attack as fast as possible to allow you to get back up onto your feet.
Static Knife Attacks
We will teach you how to defend against static attacks with a weapon such as muggings and robberies from various angles such as knife into the stomach, knife against the neck or a knife into the back from behind.
Direct Knife Attacks
This is dealing with extremely violent knife attacks such as stabs and slashes, you will first learn 360-degree blocking, and then realistic knife-disarming techniques. So that hopefully, you will survive a violent attack.
Stick Attacks
Blunt edged or long range weapons such as sticks, poles and baseball bats will also be covered during this course. Starting with judging and closing the distance to the attacker. Moving onto disarming or controlling and restraining the attacker.
Gun Disarming
This is slightly more advanced, and in reality, for most people is highly unlikely that they will ever have a gun put to their head, but we fully believe that it is worth having the knowledge should you ever end up in the situation. to allow you to get back up onto your feet.
