At Spartans Academy of Krav Maga, we offer a range of classes to suit all interests and goals. π₯
π«΅ Whether youβre looking for an intense workout or want to focus more on self-defence techniques, weβve got you covered.
βοΈWe've had a huge uptake in people joining our classes this month, here's some reasons why:
1. Self-defence is essential
The world can be a dangerous place, and itβs important to know how to protect yourself. Krav Maga is one of the most effective self-defence systems out there.
2. Krav Maga is practical
Krav Maga is designed to work in real-life scenarios, not just in the gym or dojo. Youβll learn techniques that you can use in a variety of situations.
3. Krav Maga is for everyone
Krav Maga is suitable for people of all ages, genders, and fitness levels. Our classes are designed to be inclusive and welcoming.
4. Krav Maga can improve your mental health
Krav Maga can help to reduce stress and anxiety, boost self-confidence, and improve mental resilience.
5. Krav Maga is a fun and challenging workout
Krav Maga is a great way to stay in shape and challenge yourself physically and mentally.

Krav Maga teaches you how to react in situations where you are made to feel intimidated or vulnerable, so you can feel confident and self-empowered no matter your ethnicity or background.

π‘οΈ First Aid saves lives. First Aid means that loved ones survive. β€οΈ
Self-defence skills aren't just about awareness and fight techniques. It's also about surviving and knowing how to deal with the aftermath of an attack. Do you know how to take care of yourself or a loved one whilst waiting for an ambulance to arrive after surviving an attack?
π FIRST AID COURSE | 14 September 2024 βοΈ
β° Time: 09:00β17:00
π Location: Melbourne Centre, York
π₯ Run by: Oscar Charlie Bespoke First Aid Training & Medical
This is a nationally recognised qualification and certification. The full-day course covers basic first aid knowledge, how to conduct a Primary Survey, initiating CPR, accessing an AED (automated external defibrillator), and dealing with trauma wounds such as catastrophic bleeding (knife or gunshot wounds).
THIS course is more hands-on than your normal (and rather dull) first aid course. It has plenty of practical training, role-play scenarios, and even a blood squirting dummy. π
Curious? See you there!

Haven't joined us yet? Now's your chance! π Book your trial (http://kravmaga-academy.co.uk/book-trial/), turn up, and we'll help with the rest!
See you in class, Spartans! π
Every class, each of our Spartans build on their mental toughness and resilience π₯
π‘οΈ Mental toughness is the ability to perform consistently even under stress and pressure.
πͺ Mental resilience = never give up.
How does this translate into the training we provide? π€
Techniques and solutions are broken down into simple steps from the beginning of class, then build towards a stress drill.
In stress drills, YOU learn to keep calm and maintain your composure when faced with a difficult or intimidating situation. YOU gain the mental resilience to cope with challenges and adapt to adversity. To never give up even when you're exhausted. To find solutions rather than panic. This is how people begin to feel safer and stronger π―π―
Curious about how you'll fare under pressure? Find out in this week's class!
See you there, Spartans π
Why are our classes run with mixed genders and abilities? π€
It's impossible to predetermine when, where, and what kind of attack or threat you encounter. It may never happen at all, or it could completely blindside you. This is also true for the type of attacker you encounter.
β‘οΈ Will they be tall or short?
β‘οΈ Will they be younger or older?
β‘οΈ Will they appear well-dressed or in casual attire?
β‘οΈ Will they have experience in other martial arts or street fighting skills? Or none at all?
β‘οΈ Will they carry weapons?
β‘οΈ Will they emerge solo or in a group?
This is exactly why our classes are an all-inclusive mix.
By creating an environment where students can safely train with a wide variety of scenarios (heights, sizes, genders, skill levels), each Spartan can better understand the advantages or disadvantages they may experience in different circumstances, and learn to adapt quickly accordingly. π―
We welcome everyone to all our classes and can't wait to see you there! π
π― Show up for yourself π―
β€οΈ You matter, so never give up.
π€ You matter, so don't let doubts or fears hold you back.
β€οΈ You matter, so stay consistent.

Kick off 2024 in true Spartans Academy style! π₯πͺ
Whether you're a seasoned Spartan or still relatively new to the academy, take a moment to reflect on your initial motivations or reasons for beginning your journey with us. Was it...
π€ for self-empowerment?
β€οΈ to get fitter?
π€ to gain confidence?
β€οΈ to try something completely new?
Do those initial reasons remain true today or have they changed? Will you approach your training differently this year, and how can we help? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!
βββ
Haven't joined us yet? Now's the perfect time! π
If you're on the fence because you don't feel ready, don't think you're fit enough, don't think you'll be good at it, believe you're too old, don't have previous experience, don't want to turn up alone, etc.
Then this is your cue to stop waiting and take action! π₯ Waiting until you feel ready is a myth as nothing happens or changes when you're in a passive state. Instead, take control! π―
Our self-defence classes are beginner friendly and accessible to all ages and levels of experience. Newcomers turn up every week year-round so you're not alone! All you need to do is book your trial (http://kravmaga-academy.co.uk/book-trial/), turn up, and that marks the start of YOUR journey to a stronger, more confident YOU this year! πͺπͺ
It's time to channel that energy into making this the best year yet! π₯π₯
Stay safe and we can't wait to see you in class, Spartans! π
WE'RE BACK - HAPPY NEW YEAR! π€β€
