Krav Maga
Krav Maga is not your traditional martial art. It was developed in a hostile environment in which students could not devote many hours to self-defense training. Because of this, the Krav Maga system was designed to bring students to a high level of proficiency in a short period of time. There are no forms (katas), rules, or set combinations as reactions to attacks. Rather, students learn to defend themselves through repetition of techniques, muscle memory, and instinct. Krav Maga training focuses on teaching simple self-protection techniques that are specifically catered to reality-based attack situations.
Fitness
We know, treadmills are boring. Luckily, all of our classes are an excellent workout. In addition to Krav Maga, we also offer high-intensity fitness classes with certified instructors to complement your training. Some of the classes offered include: Heavy Bag, Thai Pads, Strength & Conditioning, Bootcamp Conditioning, KravFit, and more.
