Blitz Krav Maga

From day-1 in our original 1000 square foot studio right up to the present in our state-of-the-art 5000 square foot center, we have been dedicated to providing students of all ages with the best training in Israeli self-defense, fitness, and fighting. Our students come from Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Staten Island, the Bronx, Westchester and beyond.

Krav Maga is a true self-defense and fighting system, not a "martial art." The words are Hebrew: Krav means combat, and Maga means contact, so Krav Maga means Contact Combat.

Originally created and developed by Imi Lichtenfeld as Kapap (a Hebrew acronym meaning face-to-face combat) Imi's motive for developing Krav Maga was to provide real-world, life-saving, battle-tested skills for defending against armed and unarmed attacks, single and multiple attackers, and unfamiliar combat situations that require instant adaptation.

I joined Blitz Krav Maga because of their expertise in teaching Krav Maga. I'll admit that, as a female, I was hesitant at first. I also had no martial arts experience. After only a few weeks of training, however, the instructors and students at BKM became my second family. The instructors go above and beyond to ensure that each student pushes their limits.

Our own unique fitness training class designed to build strength & stamina and mega-burn calories. Always fun and different! I was looking for a class to get me moving; this is so much more. The instructors are excellent, time flies, I'm torching calories, and learning real world protection, I'm hooked!

Active Shooter workshops train individuals and groups in tactics for survival in the event of an active shooter threat or attack. Participants learn the most proven strategies in workshops that are hands-on, practical and dynamic. Full day of training in techniques from all levels, from strikes and groundfighting to defenses against handgun threats, stick & knife attacks and much more.
