Private Self-Defense Sessions Are Ideal if You…
• Feel more comfortable in a one-on-one setting or with a group of friends
• Have a demanding schedule (executives, shift workers, parents) and need flexible timing
• Are senior citizens looking for a safe & low-impact way to develop practical safety skills
• Prefer individual attention to address specific concerns (e.g., travel safety, workplace scenarios, personal confidence)
• Want faster skill development without waiting for group class progress
What Happens in Your Krav Maga Session?
Prior to any physical activity we start with a discussion about what you want out of the training - what your goals are, whether there is anything in specific you want to learn, and why are you dedicating your time training. When we meet, each session begins with a warm-up, proceeds to striking drills, and then we dive right into Krav Maga technique. We’ll end with a cool-down/Q&A.
• Goal discussion & assessment at the start
• Active, hands-on training environment & fighting drills
• Personalized feedback and modifications
• Review previous session’s material before new technique is presented
