Kore Self-Defense & Krav Maga

now we can add... "we moved BACK here in part because I just missed training at Kore too much. I am SO happy to be back". One of our earliest members back when we opened our doors in our first permanent facility 8 years ago is back on the mat with us. Our members say it's our attitude, integrity, and quality of training that makes us so unique in the region. We say it's you, our members. #Koretribe If you want to check us out, we have safety protocols in place and to date - have had ZERO reported exposures at the facility.

If the pandemic has made your life unpredictable enough you've stopped planning, we got you. Take our short-term Foundations Membership course with up to 4 training opportunities each week and then walk away if you need to when it's over. Check out the link for all the details https://koreselfdefense.com/

STOP IT!!! ...just kidding. We have such a committed group of members that they are helping the martial arts retailers sell-out of equipment for at-home training! We are thrilled, really, to see our at-risk students buying heavy bags for their homes so they can get a full scope of training experience while they are learning with us remotely. #koretribe #loveloudoun

Take the mat with added safety protocols - February 1st starts our first Foundations Cohort of 2021, instructed by our team - including Jacob Shepherd. Accomplished practitioner, instructor with background in Forensic Psychology, he understands what he's teaching. Limited number of students - short term membership finishing up with your first rank test.

February Foundations Membership Cohort FAQ

2021's first Foundations Membership Cohort is Open for enrollment. Finite commitment, no long term obligation, solid training. Headcount has a hard cap to keep training safe while the vaccine makes it's way into the community. Click the link for more details: https://member-site.net/?EV--iPXiP

The pandemic has reminded us all - adaptation is key. We're adapting to give you greater control over your training experience. BOLO for the details!

[01/05/21]   We are back on the mat this week with the exception of Tai Chi, which resumes next week-

in keeping with an old Elton John song...We're Still Standing...and we are here with you and for you as we inch ever closer to getting this pandemic in check. May you look to this new year with resilience, strength and hope.

We wish all our Kore Tribe and the NOVA community at-large a holiday season that is warm, well, and held in the peace that we are always moving forward to a new, stronger season.

[11/29/20]   “The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

However you have chosen to experience gratitude today- may it be a day of beauty-

With a marked increase in online shopping this year, remember self-defense is about A LOT of different things...

Nicely done Virginia- keep it up!

In a recent LCSO advisory there have been several reports of scammers hitting our area. Here are a few things to be on the look-out for-

thank-you...

Gov. Northam's press conference this week speaks to the great job Virginian's are doing staying safe and staying strong. We are one of 3 states statistically holding steady. NOVA's positivity rate is roughly 4.7 % and the state overall is under 5% compared to 0ver 20% a few months ago. At #koretribe we are proud to provide training in a way that supports the numbers. Strength is physical and mental. Living fiercely includes pressing forward wisely - but pressing forward nonetheless. Yes, we are open. Yes, we are accepting new members, yes we offer online access to the in-person classes. Yes, we have measures in place to be a physically safe place- Thank you NOVA, thank you to our members who have stayed with us, maintained your membership through this ever-changing landscape. Because of YOU - our doors are still open and we can continue to be a cornerstone in the personal safety community. (throw back pic 😁 - shout out to the Beach crew who flew the coop and moved out of state - we miss you guys!)

Staying safe AND getting stronger- #koretribe
