Grounded in Krav Maga, the official hand-to-hand combat system of the Israeli Defense Forces, our Warrior Self Defense program, will not only teach you defenses against chokes, bear-hugs, headlocks and other attacks, as you progress, you will also learn advanced self defense techniques that include defenses against armed and multiple attackers. Krav Maga is proven in the battlefield and adapted for the street. Our reality-based self defense training is focused on no nonsense practicality and effectiveness in all scenarios. Your skills are not developed in a vacuum. We also teach you techniques that strengthen you mentally and emotionally as supplement to your physical training so you can be better equipped to face your fears in other areas of your life. By being part of the Warrior Self Defense program, you will learn HOW and WHEN to use your self defense skills effectively, and have the physical and mental conditioning to fight through any threats or fears. You will have confidence that the skills and tactics you learn work, AND have tools that help balance emotions, tap into the power of your soul, and help you feel more grounded and connected in life.

To track your progress through the system:
Warrior Self Defense Classes are divided into three main training echelons:
Beginning Warrior Self Defense (Krav Maga Level 1)
This phase of training consists of the basic skills and combatives such as fighting stances, straight punches, elbows, knees, and front kicks that are critical, fundamental combatives in self defense. You will also be shown defenses against some basic, but common attacks such as chokes and headlocks, and gain understanding in the basic self defense tactics and principles of Krav Maga that make it one of the most effective self defense and fighting systems in the world.
Intermediate Warrior Self Defense (Krav Maga Level 2 and Level 3)
At this phase of training you will learn more advanced levels of punches, knees, and kicks, and start putting them together into overwhelming combinations. You will also address more complex self defense scenarios including groundfighting, multiple attackers, and introduction to defenses against attacks with weapons.
Advanced Warrior Self Defense (Krav Maga Level 4 and up)
At the advanced level of training you understand the fundamental concepts and principles of krav maga self defense and personal protection tactics. Your training will go deep into defenses against a variety of armed attacks including handguns, knives, blunt objects, long guns, and much more. You will apply your skill sets and knowledge to self defense scenarios of increasingly higher levels of complexity, and learn to how to adapt what you have learned to address a variety of threatening scenarios.
Progression
There will be midterms and Level Exams to track your progress through the levels. Midterms are intended to make sure that you understand the techniques and have a basic understanding of the level you are in. Level Exams are designed to put you to the test. Once you pass, you will receive your official Level Certificate (endorsed by the Krav Maga Alliance) and are eligible to move on to the next level in the Warrior Self Defense system. For those also pursuing the Shamanic Healing Path, you will have the option to test on mental and emotional self-healing and self-care tools for each level, and upon passing, receive and be allowed to wear the official Luminous Warrior Patch.
