Kids & Teens Krav Maga
Personal Safety & Self Defense For Kids & Teens
Our Kids and Teens Krav Maga program differs from many martial arts programs in that its focuses on teaching techniques and solutions for dealing with the types of aggressive situations and incidents that Kids and Teens are likely to face, rather than taking them through a syllabus/belt system which is designed to teach them a particular martial art e.g., somebody learning a traditional martial art such as Karate or Tae-Kwon-Do, is primarily learning the art, and progressing through a system. In our Krav Maga classes it isn’t the system that is driving the syllabus and what is being taught but rather how to deal with and handle the real-life conflicts that these age-groups experience.
Our program has two goals. One to teach kids and teens some rudimentary personal safety and self-defense skills, such as how to identify and deal with other aggressive teens and kids, through de-escalation and conflict resolution, as well as understanding how situations develop etc., and two to teach physical skills and techniques, such as controlling range, how to break falls, moving safely, and breaking away from common holds and grabs etc. This latter part of the program, that develops physical skills also helps prepare them for continuing their Krav Maga training as adults.
We teach our program in a down-to-earth and non-sensational manner, that helps develop confidence and self-awareness without making our students be scared of the world. We train in a safe, inclusive, and non-injurious manner, making use of games and drills to build and develop physical skills whilst at the same time introducing safety ideas and information. The program runs in semester that roughly follow the school year. The cost per semester is $270. New students start by attending the first class of a semester for $25, if after attending this class they decide that they don't want to continue with the program, and the school is informed the remaining payment of $245 will not be taken.
