Krav Maga Elite Cambridge
I joined the Cambridge club just over 6 months ago thinking that I will probably just go to one session a week. I enjoyed the trial sessions so much that I now train 2-3 times a week, passed my P1 grading and I'm always looking forward to the next session :-) The instructors are brilliant and the atmosphere is always really nice and welcoming. The sessions are always really good and I'm usually absolutely shattered at the end of the session, which is definitely good ;-) I highly recommended it to anyone who wants to train Krav Maga/self defence or just get a bit fitter.
Not only Elite by name
I’ve been training at Krav Maga Midlands for around 6 years now. My background was Taekwondo, but I wanted something more self defence related, and Krav fit the bill. There’s a broad spectrum of students: male, female, large, small, old and young, but we are all motivated by the same desire to keep training and keep learning. While the subject itself is serious in nature, the classes are fun too. By joining, you’ll make new friends, boost your confidence, keep fit, learn self defence and push yourself past limits you didn’t even know you had. The instructors and students are all friendly and everyone is so helpful and encouraging. You are never made to feel out of place. I loved the classes so much that I trained to become an instructor. Joining was one of the best decisions I’ve made and I’ve never looked back, except when scanning, and if you don’t know what that’s referring to, get down to your local club ASAP and give it a go to find out.

Krav Maga Elite Midlands
I've been training with the Krav Maga Elite Midlands team for almost 3 years and it's definitely one of the best decisions I've ever made. They have an amazing team of instructors that have a variety of backgrounds and are able to make even the most shy and anxious person (such as myself when I first joined) feel like they belong within the group. The enthusiasm and friendliness from the instructors and fellow students alike is infectious and I am very proud to call them all friends and training partners.
Excellent place to learn self defense
Great class. It is an excellent place to learn self defense and keeping fit.
Teachers are very prepared, friendly and pay attention to everyone. The students are also friendly and helpful, no matter how seniors they are.
Every technique is explained in details to avoid injuries.
The instructions also make very clear all the time that fighting should be the last resort and the first defense against trouble is having situational awareness or, failing that, defuse it with words or run away.
Highly recommended!
Fantastic learning environment
Fantastic learning environment for learning self defence. Dave and the team are outstanding instructors, teaching with insight, passion and no nonsense. With enough commitment to learning, they'll point you in the right direction and get you going in no time at all. Whether you stay for six months to get your confidence up or six years to seriously progress, Elite will provide!
Krav Maga Elite Cambridge
I’ve only been doing Krav Maga for a couple of months and really enjoy it. It’s a hard no nonsense approach to self defence . The instructors are excellent and always there to help so if you want to get fit and learn how to look after yourself give it a go.
Recommended to everyone
Great place to learn self defence! I just wanted to learn the basics but 4 years, and 4 grades later I still love going to the classes in Cambridgeshire. Dave and team are great instructors, that show dedication and enthusiasm for teaching Krav Maga. The classes focus on all areas of self defence from sparring through to ground fighting, with great fitness drills.

Essex Elite really is the very best... quite literally!
Training with Essex Elite has given me far more that I initially expected. It has become the highlight of my everyday life. When I'm not training, I'm thinking about training. When I am training, I'm already thinking about when and where I'm going to train next. No matter how stressed, how irritable or how fed up I am feeling that day, as soon as I begin the warm up it all starts to melt away and by the end of the session I feel calm and on a total high, no matter how knackered I am, how much my body is aching or what new pains I have to endure.
They say laughter is the best medicine. Pah! well I laugh at that! For me Krav Maga certainly is. I end up laughing every lesson as I have so much fun with good friends. I am like a little kid when I get home and can't wait to show my better half the things I have learnt. It really is a wonderful tonic for the mind and body.
I started training because I felt like my life had become stuck in a bit of a rut and was starting to stagnate. Plus, I had put on some weight and my fitness was, well… shocking! Krav Maga has been a serious help with both of these and the world has become a more and more dangerous place to live in so I wanted to feel more prepared if I there ever was the need to protect myself and my loved ones.
In the beginning, I found it really hard and by the end of the trial classes I really didn't think I would be able to do it, but I'm not a quitter and we are taught to train to our own physical levels at Elite which is a really big help. Four years later I am still going strong and love it even more than I ever thought possible and despite all of my ridiculous aches and pains I made it to Practitioner Level 5, P5 in 2019, which I am really chuffed about, not too shabby for an out-of-shape 47 year old little boy. I'm now training towards my next big step, Graduate level 1, G1.
I tell anybody and everybody about Krav Maga and Elite, I really can't stop talking about it. All of the instructors are excellent and offer incredibly well structured training, which they break down into easy to handle bite-sizes chunks, so that by the end of a session when you put all the pieces together you really feel like you have learned something useful. Elite really is the best. I really wouldn't train with any other UK club.
Top training
I have trained in Krav Maga for several years and with several different schools and I can safely say that if you are looking for highly proffessional, dedicated, no nonsense self defence classes then look no further.
First class coaching.
As an older person I wondered whether Krav Maga may be a little too much for me. I signed up for the 3 session trial. I became hooked! I was pleasantly surprised to see all ages, sexes, shapes and sizes. The classes are well structured and stimulating! Admin. is spot on with Chris. Instructor Aiden has been very supportive. All they ask is commitment and focus and in return I get first class coaching in a professional environment.
Elite is more than a training centre…
Elite is more than a training centre it's more like a family. I have be training with the elite team for 18 months now twice a week. People normally get the Monday blues but not me anymore. I also train on wednesday and love nothing more than arriving early to speak with the fantastic team but also all the other elite members. If your looking to meet new people, increase your fitness and also learn the best self defence system out there this is truly the place for you.
Been with the club around 4 months now…
Been with the club around 4 months now and absolutely love it. You know you’ve found the right place when sometimes you miss a class due to work or other commitments and you can’t help feeling gutted your not there! All instructors are on hand to help, advise and welcome questions on any aspect of the technique your working on. It’s a great friendly community of like minded people all there to learn. If your looking at starting in Krav Maga then look no further, you’ve found the best!
Krav Maga …
I have enrolled my 11 year old daughter into classes. She has grown in confidence and thoroughly enjoys her sessions. This gives her something to focus on as she suffers from anxiety. We have tried other classes such as kickboxing, mixed martial arts and karate. I’m so pleased we discovered Krav Maga. What more could you want, your child being able to defend themselves and keep safe, plus being active and staying fit, all of this whilst they love doing the training. 😁 very happy mummy and a very happy daughter. Highly recommended class for all ages and abilities. Plus our instructors Ben and Jo are amazing with the children!
