With increasing incidents of crime & sexual assaults against citizens in India, here’s a way to battle it out & have the upper hand. The Israel Defense Forces is known as one of the most well-prepared, technologically advanced military units on the planet. But it is the hands & feet of its soldiers – trained in the brutal, no-rules battle-tested art of Krav Maga: Hebrew for “contact combat”; that makes him/her a military’s most lethal & effective weapon. In 2004, Mr. Vicky Kapoor made history by bringing Krav Maga into India in partnership with International Krav Maga Federation (IKMF), Israel & now its growing popular in the sectors of Military & Special Forces, V.I.P.

Hi Anand, Thanks for your comment. Yes, Krav Maga cost are costly than your average cost of traditional martial arts classes. One of the biggest reason is that Krav Maga classes gives you a concentration dose of tactics and combat solution from the very first hour. What you learn in real-time combat in the four months is equal to years of combat training in traditional martial arts. Hence, due to the quality of training provided, you are charged more. More ever, the trained pattern is in the same league as 25 armies around the world ranging from Israeli Military, US marines, SWAT, Anti-terror units etc. Brass and gold might look alike, but you only value gold more cause there is a cost factor attached to it. You are most welcome to come for one of our classes and experience the training for yourself
hi i am interested in learning this art,however i have a couple of doubts. 1)iam 28 years old,can i learn it at this age,2)iam a bit fat ,will this art help me reduce my health and improve my fitness levels,3)i work in a very strenuous job with shift pattern and may not be able to attend these courses every sunday, can it be made flexible to suit my professional regime and my work timings.
Hi Lalith, Thanks for your feedback. Yes, you never too old to learn Krav Maga. We have practitioners more than twice as old as you.
Being over-weight is also not a problem. But you would have to be more careful in your training and food once you join Krav Maga. Ask for clear instructions from your instructor according to your level of ability to perform the drills and exercises of Krav Maga. Krav Maga makes no magic promises, its hard work and pure will power that would help you to reduce your weight. Lastly, call your instructor Mr. Sree Ram and convey your issue of timing to him, and I am sure he will adjust accordingly.
I already saw the techniques and power of KRAV MAGA in a discovery channel show and was amazed. But today wen i see tat i can learn it in chennai am totally surprised.
I am very eager to learn kravmaga and to tel abt myself am 21yrs old male and little hefty.. ht:175cm wt:82kgs. i wud lik to reduce my weight as well as learn combat techniques in krav maga way… can i do tat? or do u tech only for fit persons??
ha ha ha..
my question is.. am i fit to learn krav maga??
Hi, thanks for your comment. Yes, Krav Maga in India has come to Chennai now. Irrespective of your age and weight issues, you can do Krav Maga. Ofcourse, it would be a intensive workout and you would need to balance your food and workout accordingly and you will have to show a lot of will power as it would be tough in the first few weeks. Inform your Chennai Krav Maga Instructor about any specific point you feel he should know about your weight issue. Consult a good doctor before joining Krav Maga.
Hi, My concerns are the exact opposite…I’m going to the gym trying to gain weight, i’m 168 cm and weigh 52kgs. But I’m quite fit as I play sports (Cricket & Badminton) regularly. I’ve been advised by my trainer not to exert myself too much even in sports for the time being as i need a lot of rest to gain weight and to not burn a lot of calories in the process. But I want to take up Krav Maga badly as its been a long time dream to learn martial arts, especially KM. What is your advice Sir? Also do you intend to start saturday evening classes anytime soon? I have matches on sunday and might clash with the timings of the class.. Thanks you
Hello Sir
Iam Anita , Iam 26 years , I am learning karate (Isshinryu style) for the past one year. Iam interested in taking up krav maga class.I read about you in a national paper and Iam very keen in attending your class. Can I join krav maga class?
Hello Anita, you are most welcome to join Krav Maga classes. Please get in touch with our instructor there Mr. Sree Ram 9340006600
I want to know how many levels are there in Krav maga, just like various belts in Karate…
Hi Priya, the Krav Maga grading system is divided into 4 categories; Practitioner, Graduate, Expert and Master.Each has 5 sub-levels except Master that has three sub-levels.
We are starting a Montessori school in Trichy . Summer camp is planned for the first two months before the academic year starts. We would like you to come and teach children here. We would like to be asociated with you in the long run too.
Are these individual classes or only group.
After certain problems I have had on the road with guys who could hit on ur car glasses…or while driving longer distances, i want to learn self defence.
Am 30 though and have zero experience in martial arts or self defense…
What do u think?
We have both individual classes and group sessions. Group session training is more closer to real life attack screnarios. You can contact our Chennai instructor Mr. Sree Ram 9340006600.

hi… i am 16 years old. i am a 6 foot male and weigh only around 60 kgs but play a lot of sports.. do you think i will be able to undergo krav maga training? i am very interested in this martial art and am looking forward to learning it. please advice on whether you train students of my age.
Thanks for your comment. Yes, anybody above the age of 16 can learn Krav maga. Below it you will be taught Children Self Defense. Please contact Chennai Krav Maga coordinator Sree Ram 9340006600
Rs. 1500 for 4 classes looks too costly. I think more people would be interested to learn if the course were cheaper. Kindly consider. Thanks.
Dear Anand, Our aim is to give maximum quality training and still trying to charge a minimum amount possible. There is no point comparing Krav Maga classes charges to other tradational martial arts charges, as the quality and quanity of training provided in both are very different. Yes, reducing the charges might attract more clients, but it would severly undermine the training pattern as the quality of the training has to be same in every Krav maga center.
