Description: Krav Maga is an Israeli self-defence method which is aimed for the real world, it provides simple and ideal solution to a variety of self defence situations that might occur out in the street. Krav Maga is designed to work regardless of the age or size of the practitioner, we do not rely on power or strength to solve the problem but rather focus on defending ourselves and targeting vulnerable points in the attackers body (points which will hurt regardless of the size of the attacker – such as groin, eyes and more).At Krav Maga Uri Refaeli we follow the original and traditional Krav Maga method.We follow the original Krav Maga syllabus, the guidelines and principles that were established by the founder, the late Imi Lichtenfeld, and are carried on today by Grand Master Uri Refaeli (black belt “Dan 10”) one of Imi’s most professional and loyal students.
Times: Every Wednesday 4.30-9pm & Every Sunday 4-7.30pm
