KRAV MAGA GLOBAL CLASSES NORTH SHORE
Master Real-World Self-Defence Skills with Krav Maga & Get Fighting Fit
Learn authentic Krav Maga Self Defence in dynamic classes designed for both adults and teens at our modern gym located on Auckland's North Shore. Our programs enable students to develop practical self-defense skills, while also enhancing their physical fitness.
Benefits of Learning Self Defence with Regular Krav Maga Classes
Krav Maga self defence skills are essential, as you can never predict when you may need to react instinctively. Being prepared means you can have effective skills to give yourself a fighting chance in any situation.
As Krav Maga is a practical self-defence system developed for real-world situations. Unlike traditional martial arts, it focuses on instinctive movements, efficient techniques, and rapid threat neutralisation. In our regular Krav Maga classes you will not only learn how to defend against attacks, but you will drill these defences so you are prepared. This build confidence, and also improve fitness which are also key components of readiness.
Regular classes in Krav Maga significantly enhance your ability to respond effectively during dangerous situations. They provide opportunities for you to:
- Refine your techniques,
- Retain what you’ve learned,
- Stay sharp and prepared.
While Krav Maga classes aren't primarily focused on fitness, they provide an excellent opportunity to improve your strength and overall fitness. Members consistently share how their physical condition enhances rapidly, and in some cases significant weight loss also.
Krav Maga self defence offers three classes designed for beginners. You can progress by attending one class weekly, though we suggest two classes for faster improvement. Additional classes are included in your membership for added flexibility.
No experience is required to join our Krav Maga self defence classes! We cater to everyone, from beginners to advanced practitioners. Our instructors customise training sessions to match individual skills, ensuring that all students, whether new or seasoned, can advance at their own speed.
