What are the core principles of Krav Maga?
It is not a sport. It is not about tradition. It is real world self defense. It is built to help you react fast, stay safe, and escape danger.
It gives you the tools to protect yourself and your loved ones while building confidence and awareness. At its heart, Krav Maga is built on a few key principles...
Simplicity:
Techniques are straight forward and designed to recall and work under stress.
Efficiency:
Movements are quick and use your bodies natural reflexes to initiate a defense.
Adaptability:
Students learn to respond to a wide variety of threats - armed or unarmed, standing or on the ground, single or multiple threats. Made for all athletic abilities to learn quickly and work effectively.
Neutralization:
The goal is to end a threat as quickly as possible so you can create distance and get home safely. The longer a fight is allowed to continue, the more dangerous it becomes.
Krav Maga is designed for everyone - regardless of age, size, or fitness level. Because it focuses on natural movements and practical skills, students gain confidence in their ability to handle unexpected situations. In training under these principles, our students are taught to react efficiently under stress so that in that crucial moment, they don't think... they react!
