We dont invent techniques.

Typically ‘martial arts’ evolve in the safety of the training hall using compliant students. Though many claim to differ, there is little evidence of consistent application and review under real conflict. Martial arts Instructors create, invent or 'improve'  so called ‘reality based’ techniques on this dojo experience. These techniques are based on supposition and guesswork. We do not do this and all techniques are pressure tested.

Combat evolved

Krav Maga did not evolve in the dojo. It evolved and evolves still, in some of the most dangerous places in the world through real experience.  Krav Maga is proven and still used by the IDF to this day.

We are good at what we do?

We specialise in only one thing. Realistic 21st century street self defence. We offer a range of training methodologies for a range of environments. We deal with muggings, happy slapping, cash point robbery, car jacking, glassing. All ugly but real. Techniques are simple, and have been proven to work. The techniques and principles have been tried and tested again and again in Israel and across the globe.

Professional Standards

This is not a hobby. The Instructor is a Professional.  We provide Classes, Seminars Private training and seminars for other instructors. Our students have included Police, door staff, serving military personnel, close protection officers, and the general public.

It’s tried and tested.

All techniques taught by us evolved from work and principle taught by Imi Sde Or, (the founder of Krav Maga). The same principles that make Krav Maga the primary self defence and hand to hand system taught in the israeli Armed Forces. It has been repeatedly and successfully tested in battle situations across the globe. Our students learn these same proven techniques under pressure. If they didn’t work you would find out soon enough, but in the session, not on the street.

International recognition

We are recognised by the worlds largest and most credible Krav Maga organisation, The International Krav Maga Federation. As an International Krav Maga Federation centre, our grade awards are recognised Internationally, not just in the UK, and by most competing krav Maga organisations.

A broad knowledge base and real life experience.

The instructor worked in a range of custodial and forensic settings managing and controlling aggressive behaviour. He also holds 3 Black Belts and 4 Instructor certifications in a range of related areas including control and restraint training and full contact adrenalised training.

Accelerated Learning and pressure testing

The IKMF has an approach to accelerated learning. Students are encouraged to learn technique and principle slowly and correctly. Students then start to perform technique under an increasing variety of situations with pressure. From standing, sitting, lying on the floor, single attackers, gangs in fact, just about any realistic situation. Attackers will resist and be aggressive during this situation. This is demanding and realistic training but essential for any reality based system.

"It (Krav Maga) has more self defence cred than any other system we know about - and we know quite a bit about the subject!"
