As an official Krav Maga Global school, we teach the KMG syllabus which is constantly tested and improved by the KMG Global Team, led by our Chief Instructor, Eyal Yanilov. Bristol Krav Maga maintains very high standards by continually training with the Krav Maga Global Team. We conduct our own in house training and attend regular developmental courses within the organization worldwide to offer a comprehensive range of Krav Maga services.

At Bristol Krav Maga City Centre, we train;

Tuesday and Thursday 19.00 – 20.30 at Bristol Cathedral Choir School

At Bristol Krav Maga Horfield, we train;

Monday & Wednesday 1900 – 2030 at Orchard School Bristol.

A typical lesson will consist of a structured warm up, to ensure that both your body and mind are fully prepared for the drills and activities that lie ahead. We spend some time working on functional fitness and flexibility before moving onto the main body of the lesson which will focus on Krav Maga fighting skills and self defence techniques such as:-

• Tactical awareness;  how to recognize, avoid & de-escalate conflict situations
• A wide variety of striking, kicking, grappling and ground fighting techniques to ensure you can defend yourself from all ranges, angles & situations
• How to escape from a variety of grabs, holds, headlocks and bear hugs
• Defending against armed attackers – knives, sticks, guns & other improvised weapons
• Dealing with multiple attackers
• Use of everyday objects to defend yourself
• Third party protection, looking after  your loved ones
• How to fall to minimize injury, and to continue fighting from the ground
• Sparring and combat fighting skills.

The lesson will usually end with a summary drill that will bring everything we have learned in that class to a conclusion, and of course, we’ll have some fun!

At Bristol Krav Maga, we use stress training to ensure the techniques you learn in class will work for you in a real life situation. We use a variety of techniques to simulate the body’s natural Fight or Flight responses in order to teach our students how to control these reactions and to ensure they make the correct tactical decisions in any given situation.

Private Tuition

Bristol Krav Maga understands that not everyone works a standard ‘9-5’ job and getting to regular classes can be challenging  due to varying work schedules and family commitments. We offer a variety of private tuition options from small groups, to focused one to one sessions to meet your individual needs. It could be that you are not yet confident enough to step out in front of a class full of people as a complete beginner, don’t worry, we’ve all been there. Others just prefer to take advantage of the focused attention that comes with one to one training, allowing them to quickly learn the system, work on weaker areas of their skill set or develop specific skills to assist them in their day to day lives. Whatever your circumstances, private tuition can offer you a number of advantages and we are fully committed to helping you achieve your goals. Contact us today to discuss your individual needs and we will work out a training package that works best for you.

Small Groups

We also provide private tuition and workshops to small groups. This is also a fantastic way to learn Krav Maga at your own pace, with friends, family or colleagues, whilst sharing the costs.

Please Note: Due to the nature of Krav Maga, we absolutely cannot accept drop ins. Please contact us to register your interest or arrange a free trial.
