Frequently asked questions...

Here are some answers to some frequently asked questions. If you want to know something that is not mentioned her please contact us.

What costs are involved?

  Regular training is paid for by a direct debit system. This costs £30 per month if you train 4 sessions per month and £45 per months for unlimited training. Regular students are also required to join the British Combat Association. This costs £15 per year and pays for insurance. Private lessons, seminars, gradings and private courses cost a different amount, depending on the event.

What special equipment is needed?

  Male students will require a groin protector. These cost £20 and available from the instructors. Other protective gear is available if you feel you need it, and some of it is mandatory for intermediate and advanced classes.

Is the training suitable for women/unfit people/old people/begginers?

  Simply yes! A lot of over 40s, a few of over 50s and a couple of over 60s have trrained with us. There are specific beginners classes. See the "Classes" page. Training is totally suitable for women and we have taught many females. We don't have seperate ladies classes as you are more likely to be attacked by a man but if you are a lady interested in training with us please bring a freind to train with if that makes you feel more comfortable. We are very friendly and are actively trying to increase our numbers.

What is the mimimum age to learn Krav Maga?

  16 is the minimum age limit due to the potentially lethal nature of some of the techniques that we teach, therefore some emotionally maturity is required.
