OUR CLUBS
One of the best ways to learn Krav Maga is to join a club or training group. The benefits are far greater than learning practical, powerful self defense techniques. There's a sense of camaraderie, pride in achieving realistic goals, and becoming part of a tribe of likeminded people who freely share their knowledge and energy with you.
CORPORATE
Elite Defence Academy International provides training to companies, institutions, and community groups of all sizes. Our workshops and seminars go far beyond self defense, though. We also delve into performance psychology, how to overcome personal barriers, and reducing stress while enhancing team cohesion and communication.
