The most practical, effective and realistic self-defence system On Earth.
Krav Maga is the practice of close combat self-defence that is built on natural instincts and reflexes. It teaches you how to get to safety with minimum movement and maximum results. Krav Maga is a simple, yet extremely effective means of self-defence, that is suitable for people of all ages and from all walks of life.
Krav Maga has taken the best from different forms of martial arts such as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai and combined them together into a fierce and incredibly powerful form of self-defence that works in real-world situations. Krav Maga is the perfect self-defence system for people living in a violent country like South Africa.

Real Self-Defence Skills
Krav Maga is about survival and self-defence against violence or threats in real-world situations. We teach you to avoid danger in the first place, but when necessary, use any means to protect yourself.
What Makes Krav Maga Different To Other Martial Arts?
It's about self-defence, not showing off.
The Krav Maga philosophy starts with the belief that the best way to win a fight is not to get into a fight in the first place
So, we spend a lot of time teaching you to control your emotions, use your mind and de-escalate situations and win through avoidance of conflict.
When conflict is unavoidable, Krav Maga teaches how to use everything at your disposal to neutralize the threat while remaining calm under pressure.
Part of the training is learning that in a fight the victim must be able to turn the tables quickly. The moment you get attacked, you are no longer the victim - you become the attacker.
No Rules - No Ref - No Ring
Krav Maga is a pure self-defence and striking system. There are no competitions or showcases for self-defence scenarios. We train in Krav Maga to help us avoid and survive the worst-case scenarios. If someone is threatening your life, we train on how to avoid that scenario to begin with, and if it is already beyond the point of no return, we are trained to use the most effective strikes and techniques to prevail, while under extreme stress. There are no elaborate choreographies nor absolutes. There are no uniforms and no traditions. We do not train in Krav Maga to start fights or show off. We train to save our own lives and the lives of our loved ones. As quoted by the founder Imi Litchenfeld, we train in Krav Maga “so that one may walk in peace.”

Head Instructor Israeli Krav International.
I have always been interested in martial arts ever since I could walk. I've dabbled in karate, amateur boxing and Chinese kickboxing.
As curiosity would have its way as soon as I turned 18 I started visiting some of South Africa s most dangerous towns and cities. Being directly involved with all kinds of dangerous people I realized that my current training in karate and boxing would not suffice. I then came across IKI Krav Maga and realized that this is what I have been looking for most of my life.
Now having 10 years of experience in practising Krav Maga. Jotham is an excellent Instructor with sound knowledge & skill in all combative techniques. His style of teaching pushes your boundaries & teaches you to be self-confident, aware & prepared.

Jotham is in my opinion an exceptionally proficient instructor in his martial arts presentation. He has mastered over a number of years the art of Krav Maga and has become a formidable martial art practitioner, highly skilled in what he presents and how he presents himself. He is an excellent instructor in the virtue of teaching and conveying his knowledge to students.
