Krav Maga Juniors Self Defence Classes

Krav Maga Juniors Self Defence Classes We are a Krav Maga school that helps children build confidence, resilience, fitness, focus, and practical self-protection skills. It's official!

Led by a former Royal Marine, our classes combine discipline, encouragement, and real-world training. Krav Maga Taunton is officially starting our Krav Maga Junior's program in September. Monday and Thursday evenings 4.30pm to 5.15pm - Wellsprings Leisure Centre, Taunton. Children aged 7-13 will be able to get an excellent grounding in the world's foremost self defence system. Our structured program allows for regular gradings to assess progress, along with a proven set of skills and strategies to keep kids safe and teach them how, and importantly, when they should defend themselves. If you want your child to learn with us, get in touch today! All instructors are DBS and first aid trained and have undergone extensive child protection training. You can rely on the highest standards of professional instruction.

🎉 Krav Maga Somerset is 16 years old!

When I think about what we’re celebrating, it’s the people who’ve walked through our doors.

Taking that first class when you’re nervous. Trying something you didn’t think you could do. Gradually feeling stronger, more capable and more confident in yourself.

Those moments mean a lot.

To every member, past and present, thank you for being part of KMS. To the parents who trust us with their children, thank you. And to our instructors, thank you for the care and commitment you bring to every class.

You’ve helped build a community where people can learn to protect themselves, improve their fitness and feel they belong.

If you’ve been thinking, “I’m too unfit” or “I’m too old to start”, there’s a place for you here too. You don’t need to arrive feeling confident. We’ll help you take that first step.

I’m proud of what we’ve built together, and grateful to everyone who’s played a part.

Happy 16th birthday, KMS. Here’s to the people who’ll walk through our doors next. ❤️

Learning self-defence takes more than physical ability.

Children need to listen, follow instructions, manage distractions and keep trying when they don’t get something right the first time.

Those habits don’t stay on the training mat. They can help children become more focused at school, more patient when learning and more willing to work through challenges.

We keep lessons active and enjoyable while still giving children clear boundaries and something meaningful to work towards.

Not every child enjoys traditional sports, and that doesn’t mean they can’t become fitter, stronger and more active.

Our classes keep children moving through games, partner activities and practical self-defence exercises.

They improve their balance, coordination and stamina without feeling as though they’re being put through a fitness test.

They’re usually too busy learning, laughing and joining in to notice how hard they’re working.

No previous experience or high level of fitness is needed. They can begin at their own pace.

For those of you about to grade, we salute you! 🦸🦸♀️

Good luck today guys.

I know you are all going to smash it.

Final words of advice!

Hydrate well. Obviously, don’t overdo it, but medically, your urine should be clear at all times. Dehydration can have a marked impact on your performance on the day.

It isn’t enough to think about drinking some water an hour before the grading. In fact, this advice applies to everyday life. Most people are chronically dehydrated all of the time.

Eat a good breakfast at least 2 – 3 hours before the scheduled start time. Porridge/ with banana is awesome and includes a good protein food source.

"A little bit of suffering is good for the soul"... Mark Edwards.

P.S. Grading starts at 11.00 am and finishes at 5.00 pm. (Please arrive by 10.45 am so we can complete the registration and Grading paperwork).

As usual, if you fancy an extra session but not grading, you are welcome to pop in for the first 90 minutes.

See you there.
