Self-defense classes for teens and adults

What you'll learn

Krav Maga is a modern, practical, and highly effective self-defense system developed to help people protect themselves in real-life situations. It was developed by Imi Lichtenfeld, beginning in the 1930s, and later taught to Israel's defence forces. It has since grown into one of the most widely respected self-defense systems in the world.

By the 1970s it was being taught to civilians, and it is now used globally by military units, law enforcement agencies, and everyday individuals seeking real-world protection. What sets Krav Maga apart is its simplicity and effectiveness.

The techniques are based on natural human instincts, allowing students to learn quickly and respond efficiently under stress. It’s designed to work in a wide variety of scenarios, from common street encounters to high-threat situations, without relying on complicated choreography or sport-based rules. There are no competitions, point systems, or fancy moves—just direct, functional techniques aimed at survival and safety.

At Confluence Krav Maga, our Teens and Adults train in a full, authentic Krav Maga program. Our certified instructors trained at the Wingate Institute in Netanya, Israel, home of the world's first Krav Maga instructor course. Our curriculum not only teaches powerful self-defense tactics, but also the mindset, awareness, and principles necessary to stay safe in an unpredictable world.
