KRH Self Defence instructors have undergone thorough, accredited training with Krav Maga Global (KMG). Headquartered in Israel with representation in over 60 countries, KMG is the largest, most authentic & best regarded provider of Krav Maga in the world.

Students develop both their physical skills, mindset, and situational awareness; learning to defend themselves and their friends and loved ones.

Women’s Self Defence

Classes designed to empower women & girls, based on real life threats & scenarios. We build situational awareness & confidence, dealing with the aftermath of prior assaults, as well as how to manage any future attacks, solo travelling, abusive relationships & more. These classes can include counselling, legal advice & related support where useful.

Children’s Self Defence

Our pragmatic programme centres around anti-bullying, building the self confidence of children, as well as developing their functional fitness & knowledge of self defence principles. We use games & drills designed for young warriors aged 10-16 years of age.

Anti-bullying is our speciality & passion, to support young people.

Real-World Self-Defense Training

The self defence classes that we run as based on Krav Maga, a self defence system, developed in Israel. Unlike traditional martial arts, Krav Maga is designed to work in real life, in all kinds of conditions, against larger opponents & from positions of disadvantage.

Instinctual Techniques for Maximum Effectiveness

The system that we teach is based upon this, plus our experiences in the military, police & as bodyguards. It is based on our human instinctual movements which makes it easy to learn and to be highly effective. Giving you the skills to stay safe.

Comprehensive Training Facilities

We use the whole of the building, car park, gym, strike shields, matted area, weapons, vehicles, conference room with large cinema screen to view videos & other aids in our training.

First Aid, Awareness and Confidence Building

We include first aid, situational awareness, top tips for solo travellers, confidence building for people who have suffered attacks prior, & we (importantly) teach the UK law on self defence.
