Krav Maga is not a traditional martial art system. It does not compete in combat sports competitions or tournaments. It is a mixture of fighting and self-defense techniques including wrestling, Muay Thai, traditional boxing, kickboxing, Jiu-Jitsu, Karate, and street fighting. It utilizes the environment around you to increase your chances of staying alive and escaping a violent encounter.

Krav Maga translates from Hebrew to “Contact Combat.” It is not about size and strength but rather speed, aggression, and technique, with explosive reactions using the body’s natural instincts. The system is intentionally simple. The goal is to bring a student to a high level of proficiency in a short period of time.

Krav Maga is practiced all over the world, and is the preferred system of S.W.A.T., Navy Seals, Air Marshals, and law enforcement. With growing numbers of violent incidents happening in the workplace, schools, places of worship, and places of leisure, knowing how to defend oneself is more important than ever. At SB Krav Maga, we welcome any student who wishes to feel safer and more confident in their self-defense abilities.
