The aftermath of our first post-lockdown training at the gym on Saturday, the 1st of August 2020. It was great having so many of you attend the class guys! We hope that you had some well deserved rest over the long weekend and look forward to seeing you in our classes this week!
Krav Maga is a self defence system that is easy to learn, effective and suitable for most regular people. The techniques that we teach are based on instinctive reactions that our bodies already have. This significantly shortens the amount of time required to learn techniques. It also makes them much easier to use in a stressful situation. For example, if someone tries to choke you, your hands will automatically come up and you will try to break the attacker's grip. Unfortunately relying solely on your body's instinctive response may not be enough, especially against a bigger and stronger opponent. If this wasn't the case, we'd all be great fighters! This is where Krav Maga comes in. Through good quality training you can teach your body to slightly modify the natural response and turn it into a reliable defence. No previous martial arts experience nor a high level of fitness is required to start! In fact, attending classes regularly will not only let you learn how to protect yourself but also help you improve your fitness level!
These days there are quite a few Krav Maga federations out there. Our
school is a licensee of the Krav Maga Worldwide organization. In fact,
we are the only licensee of KMW in Dublin and Ireland. Check it out,
we are listed on their
website
(you may need to scroll down a bit to get to the international
licensees). All of our instructors have passed KMW's rigorous exams to
get certified as coaches. Just the first test, which allows you to
teach level 1 classes only, is a 7 day long course of 8 hours
training/teaching per day, that ends with a full day test. We
currently have 4 active instructors: Pablo (Level II), Artur (Level
III), Michal (Expert II) and Nikolay (Level I).
All of us have instructor profiles on the KMW website,
here. Oh and apart from our Krav Maga teaching certifications, we are all
certified as first aiders too.
You can get in touch with us and book your free trial class by sending an email to info@kmed.ie. You can also call Michal, one of our instructors, at 086 379 2560.
Our classes are divided into levels. New students are welcome to
attend any of the level 1 classes. Once you've done a few months of
training you will be able to take a level 1 test and start attending
the intermediate level 2/3 classes. Finally, we also have a level 4/5
advanced class that is open to all students who have passed their
level 3 test.
You need to bring a set of comfortable gym clothes plus a pair of training shoes to change into and a bottle of water (the bigger, the better - it is important to stay hydrated). Make sure that you are at the gym at least 10 minutes before the class is due to start, to give yourself enough time to fill out a joining form and change into your training clothes. Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, if you show up late, we will not be able to let you attend the class. The joining form consists of some basic contact details, a health questionnaire and an acceptance of training risks waiver.
We currently offer a monthly membership option at the price of €70. This membership gives you access to at least 2 classes of your level or below per week.
We also offer private and corporate classes. Please contact us for more details.
Yes! You can email us at info@kmed.ie with any additional questions you might have. Also, check out our Facebook page. We use it to regularly post about what's going on within our school. See you at the gym!
