Krav Maga


“So That One May Walk In Peace”


Krav Maga is built on instinctive movement, and practical techniques to teach the foundation of self-defense and self-protection skills.

Often referred to as a “mental” self-defense system, that is to say it is not about how much physical strength a student has, but is about their mindset and awareness.
