KIDS KRAV MAGA

Give your kids the lifelong gifts of personal success, confidence, discipline and self-defence... all while making sure they have a tonne of fun.

Krav Maga classes for kids are based around realism. No katas, no wood chopping. Just a realistic system that the kids love.

Children and teenagers are often more vulnerable to physical attacks. Hence, picking up a practical, high level self-defence skill is important for any situations that they may stumble across in their everyday life. SGS Krav Maga Kids training will teach them realistic self-defence techniques that are effective not only against bullies, but any adult assailant as well.

The curriculum includes solutions to conflicts or violent situations that are most typical for each age group. Common situations they will learn to deal with include slaps, punches, kicks, shirt grabbing, neck grabbing, choking, and being thrown to the ground. Children and youth are taught to recognize possible danger situations, the best way to avoid them, and protect themselves against any physical attack.

This is also important in the case where they might be attacked by adults in criminal assaults or sexual abuse. Children and teenagers will be taught the most effective way of defending against a much stronger adult, escaping, and also to report the incident to an authority figure.

Children also learn important skills such as break-falling and rolling that will help them to fall safely. Apart from danger situations, this can come in useful when they are playing, whether it is running, skating or cycling.

We teach children in an efficient and fun way so they can better defend themselves at school, in the playground or on the street. We also place emphasis on the development of important personality traits such as self-discipline and self-confidence. Children and youth learn the ability to make decisions in stressful situations and knowing to use fighting techniques at the right time.

Training is carried out by qualified instructors who have gone through specific training for children, and is conducted in a safe environment with safety measures to minimise the risk of injury.
