PRINCIPLE BASED LEARNING

In Krav Maga, principle-based learning stands as the cornerstone of this dynamic self-defence system. Rooted in simplicity and effectiveness, Krav Maga emphasises practical techniques that anyone can learn, regardless of size or strength.

Rather than memorising rigid sequences of moves, practitioners focus on understanding the underlying principles guiding each technique. This approach empowers individuals to adapt their responses to diverse situations, fostering quick thinking and decisive action.

By honing fundamental principles like leverage, control, and efficiency, Krav Maga equips its students with not just physical skills, but also the mental agility to navigate real-world threats with confidence and resilience.

I started at krav Maga a couple of months ago I was made really welcome by Garry and Liana. Training venue is really great and both trainers are first class. I have also made a couple of training partners but all of the people are friendly and great to train with. Manny

It gives me such peace of mind that my son is learning a life long skill to defend himself, I feel this is vital and I love that Garry and Liana teach the right and wrong way to behave and useful insights and situations that they might run in to and how to deal with them. Absolutely fantastic, I have even picked up a few techniques my self as my son is on such a high when he comes home he wants to carry on practicing! I’m so glad that you’re on our doorstep and are able to learn some of the Krav Maga techniques 🙌🏼

Although I do not train here anymore due to moving away from the area, I spent a good four years here and learnt so much being a complete beginner with no previous knowledge of martial arts or self defence. Garry is a brilliant and highly skilled teacher and great communicator. Garry along with the rest of the club are so welcoming and are always happy to chat and joke about. There are no egos whatsoever here which makes it even more welcoming. Not only did I Iearn how to defend myself and great techniques that DO work, I also made some pretty cool friendships which have lasted and gone beyond my training here. If you're looking to get fighting fit and learn self defence to the best standard, this place, because of its members and instructor is the best place to go and highly recommended.
