Krav Maga – The Ultimate Self-Defense System 🥋💥

Krav Maga is a highly effective self-defense system originally developed for the Israeli military, combining techniques from Aikido, Judo, Boxing, and Wrestling along with realistic, combat-focused training. Known for its brutal counter-attacks and emphasis on real-world scenarios, Krav Maga is built on street-fighting skills designed to neutralize threats quickly and efficiently.

At its core, Krav Maga teaches the philosophy of simultaneous defense and offense, focusing on aggression, situational awareness, and threat neutralization. Training includes psychological awareness—teaching you to read and understand your surroundings, recognize potential threats, and respond effectively before an attack occurs.

Additionally, Krav Maga emphasizes the importance of avoiding violence when possible, offering techniques for de-escalating conflicts both physically and verbally.

💥 Train in Krav Maga and gain the skills to protect yourself, stay aware, and respond to real-world threats with confidence.

Kids Self Defence Classes

Protect Your Child with Self-Defense Training – Building Confidence and Safety

Unfortunately, childhood bullying remains a significant issue in schools, playgrounds, and peer groups across Manchester. Children who aren't equipped with the right skills are more vulnerable to becoming targets. That’s why we believe teaching children valuable self-defense techniques is essential for boosting their confidence and helping them stay prepared to handle bullying situations.

Our Children's Self-Defense Classes:

• Kickboxing

• Muay Thai

• Krav Maga

Why Children’s Martial Arts and Self-Defense Matter

Our self-defense classes empower children to trust their instincts, project confidence through body language, and stay aware of their surroundings. These classes don’t teach children to be aggressive; instead, they focus on avoiding threats and neutralizing situations before they escalate.

Martial arts classes help kids develop a new sense of confidence, teaching them to control their body and handle themselves with grace and strength. Armed with self-defense knowledge, your child will feel empowered to stand up for themselves and navigate challenging situations with assurance.

Discipline, Life Lessons, and Self-Control

The skills learned in our children's self-defense classes are not just for the moment—they last a lifetime. Your child will leave with the ability to defend themselves, avoid harm, and de-escalate potential threats before they become dangerous.

Beyond self-defense, martial arts teach discipline, requiring children to think before acting, avoid impulsive decisions, and handle conflicts in a calm, controlled way. One of our core principles is teaching children to neutralize aggression and seek help, rather than engaging in physical confrontation.

Build Confidence and Safety Through Martial Arts

At K.M.M.A Freestyle Martial Arts, we provide a supportive and inclusive environment where children can build their confidence, learn self-possession, and develop skills that ensure their safety. Our fun and engaging classes promote teamwork, personal growth, and physical fitness while challenging both mind and body.
