KRAV MAGA: The #1 Self Defense System in the World.
SELF DEFENSE
Defined by brutal offensive techniques and quick counterattacks, Krav Maga is the ideal self-defense fighting style for unexpected and dangerous situations. A focus on results without rules of fair fighting means Krav Maga is not a martial art but a revolutionary self-defense course—no katas, no rituals. Based on simple principles and instinctive movements, our Krav Maga self-defense classes are intended to teach methods exceptionally effective for personal protection in the shortest possible time.
FIREARMS
ACT or Armed Civilian Tactics was created to literally bridge the gap between hand-to-hand training and firearms training. Training 1 without the other in today’s environment is simply only being half prepared. Instructed by professional trainers with real life experience in combat and thousands of hours of instruction with Civilians, Law Enforcement, Security and Military Personnel.
LAW ENFORCEMENT / PRIVATE SECURITY
Krav Maga enables officers to deal with the most violent offenders they encounter, while remaining acutely aware of reasonable use-of-force and civil liability issues facing law enforcement. These are all crucial factors that must be considered in the development of any defensive tactics program.
