Truekrav provides true Self-Defence and Tactical Training. Our objective is to teach you how to react and survive in a true combat situation, full-stop !!!
We are not a dojo, martial arts or lifestyle centre. We are a combat training facility. Training will be tough, uncompromising and exhausting and physical and mental breakdowns do occur. We require that our students adapt to our mentality of combat and this leads to Truekrav being private but certainly not closed.
Solution to a scenario recorded on CCTV :
Being held and threatened with knife.
Feel free to differ and figure out your own solution đ
At Truekrav we focus on one thing and one thing only : CAPABILITY WHEN IT MATTERS MOST !
The truth is that most fathers are incapable to protect their families against violence, and most mothers canât protect their children.
Truekravâs mission is to deliver that capability in a way that others canât match.
While most self-defence schools teach women how to protect their handbags. We teach women to protect themselves and their children when their lives are at stake.
And while most self-defence schools teach men how to fight out on a night with the boys, we teach men how to fight back in home invasions when they are the only barrier between violent criminals and their families.
Different missions, different standards, simple !
Tactical Training without proper hand to hand training, is like bolting a machine gun to a shopping trolley : Looks tactical. Falls apart the second itâs pushed.
The Truekrav Combat Club is not for shopping trolleys đ

Why we are not cheap !
We are far from being the cheapest self-defence option in Cape Town.
Shocking, I know.
But hereâs the thing :
Cheap training is like a cheap parachute.â¨Itâs absolutely fine⌠right up until it isnât.
Youâre not paying for a sweat session.â¨Youâre paying for standards.
And Truekravâs standards are unmatched when it comes to self-defence.
If price is your main concern, there are options.
But if you want something that works when it matters, thereâs Truekrav.

NOT FOR EVERYONE
Letâs be clear.
If you want coloured belts, and a participation trophyâŚ
We are absolutely the wrong place.
If, however, youâd quite like to know what to do when a criminal pulls a knife on you while hiking, or what to do in a home invasionâŚ
Now weâre talking.
Truekrav is structured, professional self-defence training for adults who understand the realities of living in South Africa.
Free trial available.
Comment âTRIALâ and weâll send you the booking link.

âThe guy at Truekrav trains civilians like soldiers and it is not necessary to have that approachâ
Heard that before from your âKrav Magaâ instructor in Cape Town ?
This woman, probably disproves the notion that civilians should not train like soldiers đ
It also proves that self-defence in reality is about a lot more than just hand to hand.
Also note that there was no time for fancy shooting stances, or using the sites on the gun.
Well done to her.
Also, what she does after shooting is truly exceptional.
And this proves that I am not crazy for teaching my members, what I taught them in class 2 Mondays ago.
Because you are NOT training self-defence if you do not train in the FULL-SPECTRUM.
DM to book a free trial class and see for yourself what the Full-Spectrum of Self-Defence looks like.
