Krav Maga Bridgwater Self Defence Classes

Krav Maga Bridgwater 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. Based at East Quay our self defence classes provide a self-defence system that’s not only very effective but incredibly easy to remember. Krav Maga is based on the body's own initial and natural responses and are based on principles rather than having to make up a self defence move for each possible attack. Krav Maga is not a rigid form of self-defence, unlike some other martial arts and is geared to real life situations. Through Krav Maga self-defence classs you will learn to turn defence very quickly into an attack. If you are interested in self-defence classes and are not necessarily looking to become involved in a 'traditional' martial art, Krav Maga is a great choice. Krav Maga self-defence classes are the ideal fitness and self-defence system 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 7pm and 8pm every Tuesday and Thursday, at Unit 5 East Quay, Bridgwater, Somerset, TA6 4DB Message us with any questions or comments!

Confidence doesn’t mean being the loudest child in the room.

It can mean having the courage to speak clearly, set a boundary, ask an adult for help or walk away from trouble.

Our junior classes help children practise these skills in a safe and supportive environment. Along the way, they improve their coordination, fitness and ability to stay calm when something feels difficult.

They’re learning skills that can help them in the playground, the classroom and everyday life.

The best self-defence technique is the one you never have to use.

Looking ahead, noticing unusual behaviour and trusting your instincts can give you time to change direction, create distance or ask for help.

Try this the next time you enter a shop, car park or unfamiliar building:

Notice who is around you.
Identify the nearest exit.
Keep your phone away while you get your bearings.
Pay attention if something doesn’t feel right.

Self-defence begins long before a situation becomes physical.

“I need to get fitter before I come along.”

We hear this more often than you might think.

But getting fitter is part of the training, not an entry requirement.

You’ll start at your own level, build your fitness gradually and learn practical self-defence skills at the same time. Nobody expects you to keep up with people who’ve been training for years.

Your first achievement is simply walking through the door.

Confidence doesn’t always arrive with a big smile and a loud voice.

Sometimes it begins with a nervous child walking into class, trying something new and realising, “I can do this.”

Our junior self-defence classes give children a safe, encouraging place to build confidence one small success at a time. There’s no pressure to be the quickest, strongest or most outgoing child in the room.

They simply start where they are, and we help them move forward.

Message us to arrange a free induction class for your child.

"There will be days when your child says they do not want to come to class. That is normal. It happens with almost every child at some point.

But those moments are often where the real growth happens. Confidence, focus, discipline, and resilience are not built instantly. They are built through consistency, especially when motivation dips.

Martial arts is not a quick fix. It is a long-term investment in your child’s confidence, mindset, fitness, friendships, and ability to handle challenges.

So when they have an off day, encourage them. Bring them in. Let the habit do its work. The results are worth it".

From learning how to defend against chokes with everyday items like ties and scarves, to building up ground survival skills and putting it all together with some intense sparring.

Couldn’t make it? No worries, there’s always a next time!
