Why Choose Katalyst Krav Maga in Virginia Beach?


At Katalyst Krav Maga, we offer real-world self-defense training designed for adults who want to be ready for the unexpected. Unlike jiu-jitsu, which focuses on ground grappling, or kickboxing, which centers on sport striking, our program includes striking, weapons defense, wrestling, and verbal de-escalation—because real violence doesn’t follow rules.

Our classes use a constraint-led approach (CLA) that builds skills through realistic, goal-driven drills. You’ll learn to adapt under pressure in a progressive way that meets you where you are—no experience required. We incorporate resistance throughout each class, helping you develop timing, decision-making, and control in situations that feel real but stay safe. This isn’t about belts or points. It’s self-defense that actually prepares you for real life.
