Who are we?

West Michigan Defensive Tactics is an organization tasked at teaching realistic self-defense, specifically Krav Maga. WMDT will also offer fitness classes, kids programs, anti-bullying classes, community engagement classes, seminars, weapons training, survival classes, kick boxing and more. Our instructors have trained all over the world and have knowledge in different arts and abilities. We believe that no one person is an expert at everything and we will employ that strategy when offering different programs and classes.

Our focus is to equip our students with the ability to protect themselves and their family. We will also focus on the healthy active engagement within our community, encouraging exercise in a variety forms and fashions. There are NO egos within WMDT, and they WILL NOT be allowed. Our focus is to have fun, learn a variety of skills and create a community of skilled and active members.

Our Chief Instructor, Alec Dakin has a background in Krav Maga, Tae Kwon Do and Marine Corps Martial Arts and is actively training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He has trained all over the world, to include: Israel, Austria, Slovenia, Hungary and more. He looks forward to offering relevant and practical self-defense to the community, along with continued education in Krav Maga and other arts and programs. The adage about expertise is a foothold to our program; “An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows absolutely everything about nothing”.
