Krav Maga Taunton Self Defence Classes

Krav Maga Taunton Self Defence Classes We are a Krav Maga school that helps children, teens, and adults build confidence, resilience, fitness, focus, and practical self-protection skills.

Led by a former Royal Marine, our classes combine discipline, encouragement, and real-world training. Krav Maga Taunton is our oldest club and is located at Wellsprings Leisure Centre, Taunton. At Krav Maga Taunton we detail every aspect of the system including dozens of hand to hand combat moves and weapons self defence techniques combined with a complete physical conditioning workout program. Our members learn a series of fast escape self defence techniques against common attacks and holds, followed up with specified counterattacks, including punches, kicks and throws. Krav Maga provides ideal fitness and self defence classes for men, women, young or old because it was purposely designed to work for anyone, regardless of how large or strong they are. Based on simple principles and instinctive actions, Krav Maga is perfect for new practitioners because it is designed to teach real world self defence in the shortest possible time. Our regular self defence classes are held between 8.00pm and 9.00pm every Monday at Wellsprings Sports Centre, Cheddon Road, Taunton, Somerset, TA2 7QP and 7.00pm to 8.00pm every Wednesday.

A common question from new members is:

“Will I get hurt?”

Our training is practical, but it’s also controlled.

You’ll learn progressively, work with cooperative training partners and practise at a level appropriate for your experience.

Instructors explain how to train safely and monitor each session closely.

You’ll be challenged, but you won’t be thrown into full-contact fighting on your first night.

The goal is to build your ability and confidence, not prove how tough you are.

🎉 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. ❤️

There’s something satisfying about finishing a long week by hitting the pads.

You release tension, improve your fitness and discover that you’re capable of more than you thought.

But the biggest change is often mental.

You begin to stand taller. You stop panicking when a drill becomes difficult. You learn to act decisively instead of freezing.

That confidence doesn’t stay on the training floor. You take it home with you.

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.
