Recommended by Lifelong Martial Artists
“Having trained and instructed in several martial arts for the last 30 years, completed courses with some of the most respected instructors in the world, engaged in door safe courses, trained with the British Army, I’ve yet to find anything that brings as much realism to my attitude to self defence as Krav Maga does.
This, coupled with the fact that Jim Halton is one of the most all-rounded instructors I’ve had the pleasure to train under, means I feel more than qualified to recommend this school to anyone wishing to better themselves – physically, mentally, or simply out of a need to feel safe.”

MODERN SELF-DEFENCE FOR REAL SITUATIONS
Self-defence today must prepare you for the realities of violence – not just techniques, but how to use them under stress. Our training blends Krav Maga with striking, clinch work, grappling, sparring and live drills, giving you the ability to defend yourself standing, on the ground or at close range.
We use scenario-based training and controlled pressure to build timing, decision-making and confidence you can rely on in real-life situations.
