Women’s Self-Defense in Virginia Beach, VA
Katalyst Krav Maga offers women’s self-defense classes in Virginia Beach, VA, and surrounding areas. We live in a society that targets women as the victims of violent crimes, robberies, and assaults. While we can not prevent these unfortunate attacks, we will give you the tools to defend yourself during the attack.
Women Are A Vulnerable Population
In the United States, one in every three women will be assaulted in their lifetime. That statistic includes sexual and non-sexual crimes. Over time, women have learned the unspoken rules of staying safe when out, such as never walking in the dark, parking near a street light if a suspicious character is walking towards you, and crossing the street. These little rules have been passed down from generations of mothers and grandmothers to help protect future generations and stay safe on the roads.
We believe that self-defense is a right. Anyone and everyone who spends time outside the house should learn the tools to defend themselves. At Katalyst Krav Maga, we will give you those tools. In our classes, you will learn to:
- Manage unknown contacts
- Create distance between you and attackers
- Defend with kicks and punches
- Break free from holds
- Defend against chokes
All these things will help you escape physical attacks from ill-intentioned people.

What Are The Basic Rules Of Self-Defense?
Our head coach and owner, David Bergman, teaches that the two most basic rules for self-defense are to stay upright and conscious. Staying upright allows you to continue fighting to escape any predator trying to get you to the ground or take you to a secondary location. Staying conscious during an attack also plays a crucial role in your self-defense.
