Krav Maga London-Croydon Self defence classes

I thoroughly recommend this club for a complete beginner through to a seasoned practitioner. Professional and patient instructor and friendly classes. Excellent way to improve fitness and learn life saving skills.

I joined this club about 9 months ago, and despite being massively unfit after a couple of years of injury and recuperation and still being a beginner I've enjoyed the classes immensely from day one. I could tell what a good club this was from the start. The instructors at KM London are highly skilled and experienced practitioners whilst also being great at imparting and sharing their knowledge. Training is tough but here is a good balance, with a lot of humour thrown in. You immediately feel at ease in the class due to the instructors' friendly and down to earth approach and also the good atmosphere amongst the students themselves. It really is a great group of people. I've been wanting to try a 'realistic' self defence system like Krav Maga for years and found that the induction program at Krav Maga London is very good and makes it really easy to try without it being a hassle. You sign up for 3 classes which cost a very affordable 19.99 and you can try the class without feeling any pressure to join afterwards. This also includes a Krav-Fit (fitness and martial arts conditioning class to work on the basics) that you can attend in parallel. Honestly though- I really can't imagine anyone not joining after their induction, since I felt hooked after the first 10 minutes! Ok, maybe not the first 10 but after the first 30 mins or so, when the vigorous torture -errr...I mean warm-up- ended ;-) From the first session you feel like you've learned practical skills and that you are making progress, which is pretty impressive and very encouraging. It's massively practical and the way the instructors make you repeat the drills is great for things to become second nature. One of the things that struck me from the start as well is that this feels like a very professionally managed school. From the way the induction is structured to the way all the email communication is dealt with, etc, everything feels very proper and professional, but at the same time very friendly and 'family like'. I am really looking forward to a very long time training at this club and gaining some good skills in the process :-) :-)

I joined Krav-Maga London 6 months ago with my partner to gain fitness and learn self-defence in an increasingly hostile area, the trainers are extremely professional, and we train alongside a great bunch of friendly students, I could not recommend KMGL, more highly and went to my first scenario seminar last weekend which brought it altogether and showed me what all the training was for, again a very well organised and well thought out event which takes out of your comfort zone and I learnt a great deal about myself and how I and others react in the situations. If your thinking about joining this is the group to join!!

I've been with krav-maga-london for 4 years now. If you're looking to improve your awareness, self-confidence, fitness and have fun whilst you learn something useful, then this is the school for you. It's clear to say that I'm addicted to the system and its no-nonsense but realistic approach. The instructors are first-class, patient, supportive (yet they do push you!) and passionate about the craft. There are no egos within the students and you get a sense of belonging as all are like-minded individuals who share the same passion for krav.

Having done a number of martial arts over the years (including being a black belt in Tae Kwon Do), I have definitely found that the teaching at Krav Maga London in Croydon is first rate. The instructors are really keen to get the best out of you and impart their knowledge. They encourage questions and explain their actions and common mistakes to watch out for. As a result, both my wife and I have learnt some really effectively self defence skills in only 3 months as well as got our fitness levels back up. One of the best things about the Croydon classes are there are no big attitudes and everyone is exceptionally friendly. For me, it's given me my confidence back that I could handle myself in most situations. I'm looking forward for the upcoming months to further develop my skills. If you hadn't guessed I would thoroughly recommend!
