What is Krav Maga?

Krav Maga - Hebrew for “combat contact”, is the official self-defense system of the Israeli defense forces. Everything is based on instinctive movements. The techniques rely on leverage, the physics of body mechanics, and common sense. You’ll learn how to effectively defend yourself, even if your assailants are faster and more powerful than you.

Why do I have to submit a signed Cancellation Form to cancel my membership?

  • The Cancellation Form is to verify your identity due to the Privacy Act.
  • The Cancellation Form is necessary to verify we cancel the correct person. Since people often have similar names the Cancellation Form provides the accurate information needed such as name, address and account number. 

Why is Krav Maga Different from Traditional Martial Arts?

Krav Maga is a modern hand-to-hand combat system. It’s strictly about learning how to defeat an attacker. Krav Maga teaches how to fight in the street, where there are no rules. Krav Maga training has no rituals, pageantry, meditation, or mysticism.
