Krav Maga Classes Near Chesapeake, VA
All of our classes are hosted at different time slots during the week to allow people with varying schedules to be consistent in their training. Our classes follow a curriculum where you get to focus on four specific areas:
- Grappling
- Striking
- Up-right Wrestling
- Weapons Defense
Each week focuses on one of these specific topics, helping you build your knowledge base on each topic. In addition to our core curriculum classes, we offer three supplemental classes, grappling, sparring, and conditioning. Grappling and sparring are thirty-minute classes focused on skills and drills that will help you grow in your technique outside of the core curriculum. Conditioning gives you the opportunity to build and tone your muscle through a series of kettlebell and bodyweight exercises. We are able to integrate a 2-mile loop into our Saturday conditioning classes since we are so close to Mount Trashmore.
Better Relationships = Better Training
At Katalyst Krav Maga, our class culture is highly important. From pad holding to conversations off the mat, we encourage our students of every rank to talk and build connections. We offer all ranks classes that integrate our newest students and our veteran students to work together and learn more about each other. To help encourage better camaraderie among our students, we start each class by lining up by rank and greeting each other by name.

Is Krav Maga Effective in a Street Fight?
Krav Maga isn’t designed to prepare you for a street fight. It does, however, train you to defend yourself. If you are in a situation where you are attacked, you have the foundational tools to protect yourself. No particular martial art guarantees that you will win in any fight; it becomes a matter of strength and technique.
Why is Krav Maga Effective?
Krav Maga uses a combination of our instinct and trained techniques to give you a good foundation of self-defense tools. Designed to be user-friendly and easy to learn, Krav Maga can be taught and implemented to anyone, regardless of age, size, or gender.
