On 28/12/2025, we trained at Milford Beach 🌊
Cold water, sand, unstable footing aren’t comfortable, but real training never is. Krav Maga prepares students for real-life situations, not perfect floors or ideal conditions. We’re glad everyone gave their best to finish the session. 👊

The highlight of the day was sharing food afterward. It was a chance to relax, connect, and get to know each other better.

This was our second beach class, and we hope to make it a yearly tradition to finish the year strong, together!

One of our members had to use Krav Maga outside the gym when a group targeted his daughters at McDonald’s. By staying calm, using his voice, and applying tactics, he guided everyone to safety without throwing a punch.

This is what Krav Maga is about - protecting your loved ones in real life. We’re proud and glad to see the skills we teach making a real difference when it matters most.

Now please read his story below:

“Didn’t think I’d ever have to put my Krav Maga training to the test at a McDonald’s … but Monday night proved me wrong.

I was with my daughters and their German friend at a McDonald’s near the airport when four teenage girls came in blaring loud music. They accused the German friend of ‘staring’ and tried to bait them inside the restaurant. Then, as soon as we stepped out, they came at my girls - punches, hair pulling, the works.

I had to step in. But here’s the thing: I didn’t throw a single strike. Instead, all the tactical training from Krav Maga kicked in.
• Creating space and keeping distance.
• Using my voice loudly and clearly — “Stay away!” “We want NO trouble!” — so bystanders knew exactly what was happening.
• Lining up the attackers so they couldn’t surround us.
• Positioning myself to protect my daughters and their friend while guiding them to safety.

At one point I had to hold the restaurant door shut just to stop them from chasing us further. We eventually made it to the car. The gang filmed our number plate as we drove off, but we got away unharmed.

What struck me most was how brazen they were - no fear, no hesitation, even with cameras and diners watching. And the Police later confirmed: these incidents are on the rise, fueled by social media, and often carried out by minors who face little consequence.

This is why I’m sharing. Because in that moment, what kept us safe wasn’t muscle or aggression - it was mindset. The tactical awareness and de-escalation skills Bertrand and Stu drill us in training.

Krav Maga is about knowing what to do when trouble comes, so you can protect yourself and your loved ones without escalating further.

Stay safe out there 🙌”

I wanted to share something special with you.

After our Valentine’s Day Self-Defense Seminar for Couples last Sunday, I received this heartfelt google review from one of our participants:

“I joined the special Valentine’s Day Krav Maga Self-Defense class for couples with my husband, and we had the time of our lives. The location was good with ample parking. We were greeted by our instructor, who made us feel welcomed and in a safe learning space.

The class was 2 hours long, and the techniques taught to us were simple and easy to understand and remember for any age group. Definitely applicable in real situations where you are with your partner and have to defend each other.

We got 2 free follow-up classes, and I really appreciate that from them.

Highly recommend everyone to take some classes! Hopefully, you won’t ever have to use it, but it’s good to know it either way. Thank you so much for having us!

— M & V"

It’s messages like this that remind me why I do what I do. Self-defense isn’t just about techniques—it’s about feeling confident, safe and empowered, especially with the people you care about most.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Valentine’s Day—it was unforgettable. And if you missed it, don’t worry, we’ll be hosting this special workshop again next year!

Stay safe,
Bertrand
