Vault assisting with prototyping courses dealing with when the bad guys aren’t on land. Most of this can’t be photographed. This takes a huge amount of work in risk assessments, specialist knowledge, experience, team effort and coordination.

So really just a typical Vault class 🤓

“Thoughts and prayers”
“Don’t look back in anger”

In the real world and not mainstream media, your and others’ lives matter.

Self defence is like first aid training in that you are much better off having and not needing, than needing and not having.

Tonight at Vault Belfast with Chief Instructor Glyn and Instructors Paul and Kerrie:

🔸 A session of dynamic and static knives 🔪

🔸 A blade disarm almost as a window breaking demo 🪟

🔸 Clarification that a sewing machine attack is not an attack with a sewing machine 📝

🔸 The class fails yet again to recognise nostalgia predating 2000 🐈‍⬛ 🐁

A Vault Instructor invited to speak at the Impact Players Conference inspiring women in business and sport in Belfast today.

Vault Krav Maga pushes all students hard to build their self confidence, their resilience under pressure, their fitness and skill sets problem solving.

These are all highly relevant not just to self-defence, but in excelling at all challenges life deals!

After yet another Islamic terrorist attack in the UK, Chief Instructor Glyn runs through our defences against the exact knife attack sequences used.

UK JTAC has at last today raised the national terror threat level to SEVERE, meaning an attack is highly likely in the next six months. Another unarmed VMAD course will run in 2026.

Vault trains the entire spectrum of self defence from drunken punch-ups to specialist armed intervention against terrorism.

That one may walk in peace.

True dedication from a smaller class at Vault Belfast during a scorcher of an evening 🌞

Grappling and throws with strikes and flying knees. Far too many innuendos and puns however …. which is something you can’t teach👌

Tonight at Vault Belfast with Chief Instructor Glyn and Instructors Carmelo and Kerrie:

🔸 A pleasant Easter holiday evening of sweeping 🧹

🔸 Carmelo confuses people by claiming to be 58 without specifying the units 🧐

🔸 A new KM student from abroad causes the class 10 pushups for saying the ‘S’ word … “Sorry” 😱

Saturday classes resume 18th April venue TBC

Vault Special Activities recently invited to a joint training exercise abroad with various specialist Schengen Area police and military units on active shooter intervention. Active shooter events appearing without warning must be dealt with rapidly and violently. We face up to this tragic reality and is the basis of Krav Maga also forming our unarmed VMAD course.

The focus of this training was on stopping killing and helping those in desperate need.

Elite defence of others and yourself operates under our tactical principles. Good training comes from instructing and coaching those so that they may be applied to real life many-variable incidents. Much of this work is not published here.

Vault as the NI authority on Krav Maga under Chief Instructor Glyn Ashton trains all manner of people from those with no experience whatsoever up to SF with the same sole objective… that one may walk in peace.
