Word on the mat

What students say

Niki’s style of teaching is exceptional! She can seamlessly adapt the lessons to students of any age and skill level. Plus…she is a badass! I pity the person that would ever try to mess with her on the street!

Brendan

I’ve done martial arts before but this is something distinctive, Krav is very clearly set up for real-world self-defence situations. In an unpredictable world, Niki is equipping us with life saving skills. Her classes are fun and friendly but be prepared to be out of your comfort zone!

Noel

I really enjoy the classes, Niki is very encouraging and patient, explains things very clearly. The classes are great fun and I am feeling more confident every week.

Karen

Krav Maga has always intrigued me and I’m so happy that I found an instructor like Niki. Her sessions are dynamic and engaging while maintaining a high level of professionalism.

A brilliant class with effective training with a brilliant atmosphere and team I would strongly recommend.
