About us
“There’s only one basic principle of self-defence- you must apply the most effective weapon, as soon as possible, to the most vulnerable target”- Bruce Lee

Welcome to Krav Academy where our goal is to teach self defence to everyone, no matter what age or ability. Our classes are aimed at adults and even those with absolutely no experience or fitness level can start!
We aim to give you confidence and the skills both mentally and physically, to defend yourself in the world we live in.

A few things we’re great at

Whatever you are looking to achieve, from increasing your fitness, improving your self confidence, reducing your stress levels or learning practical skills to protect yourself and your loved ones, Krav Academy provides a safe and welcoming environment for you to do so.
As the quote above suggests, there are some simple principles of self defence and we believe that a great way of defending yourself is using a system called Krav Maga, which is effective, proven and also very easy to learn.
Our team are passionate about helping you to conquer your fears and fulfill your goals.
Please get in touch and let us know how we can help you.

What is Krav Maga

Krav Maga is an effective, modern, and dynamic self-defence system. It is designed to be practical and intuitive for people of any age, shape, or size to be able to learn. The techniques work on using natural and instinctive movements, allowing you to develop skills quickly and efficiently. You will learn how to defend yourself and your loved ones, while gaining confidence and fitness.

Best Defence

Krav Maga is the best pure self defence system and there are no competitions or showcases for self defence scenarios.

Train Scenarios

We train on how to avoid scenarios to begin with, and if it is already beyond the point of no return, we train you to use the most effective strikes and techniques to get yourself to safety. 

WALK IN PEACE

As quoted by our founder Imi Litchenfeld, we train in Krav Maga “so that one may walk in peace.”

Complete system

We do not train in Krav Maga to start fights or show off. We train to save our own lives and the lives of our loved ones.

Student Testimonials

Dont’t take our word for it – here’s what our students say:

“I’m so happy I found the Krav Academy, not only do the classes teach you really useful skills in self defence and give you confidence, it also keeps me on top of my fitness levels working out with a bunch of super lovely humans every week at a pace to suit me.”

Mel

Haslemere

I love Krav because I get so much from it; it’s social, I learn practical skills and get fit and strong at the same time. The teachers are second to none and go out of their way to make your time at Krav the best it can be.

Matt

Godalming

“For me Krav Maga self defence and combat training should be taught in secondary schools and on the curriculum. The varied techniques are highly relevant to some of the risks teenagers face today such as knife attacks and abduction. Andy and his team at Krav Academy provide a very safe, inclusive and nurturing environment for both male and female members. My daughter’s confidence and street awareness have developed enormously since she joined the club 4 years ago”.

FAQ

What should I wear?

You do not need any special clothing, a track suit or loose comfortable clothing is ideal. Once you join then a club uniform is available.

How fit should I be?

Krav Maga is designed for men, women and children of all ages and abilities. It is not about sheer strength or power. Being fit will help and your fitness will improve the more you train.

What equipment do I need?

Initially all training equipment is provided but as you progress, you are encourages to purchase your own equipment (MMA gloves etc.) for hygiene purposes. Students should consider buying a groin guard

How much does it cost?

Please contact us for additional information on all class prices, individual coaching and small group tuition.

Are there gradings?

There are different levels in Krav Maga, just like other marital arts. If you wish you can prepare for and take a grading test, then go on to the next level. There is no pressure to grade but if you want to then we will guide you through the process.

Are the people friendly?

Krav Maga classes are friendly and informal. Unlike some martial arts there are no rituals, or different ways of treating people based on their experience. Instructors use their first name. The focus is on learning the techniques and applying them.

How long will it take to learn?

Krav Maga is designed to be quick to pick up and easy to remember. You will learn useful, practical things frrom lesson one. With regular practice the first grade could be taken in around six months.
