Krav Maga Experts Training & Self Defense Classes in New York City
At Krav Maga Experts, our mission is to equip children with the tools they need to thrive in life—physically, mentally, and emotionally. We believe in fostering resilience, self-confidence, and self-awareness through the practice of self defense.
Our goal is not just to create strong bodies, but to shape strong, confident individuals who are prepared to face challenges with courage, empathy, and a sense of responsibility. We empower kids to navigate the world with confidence, giving them the skills to protect themselves, resolve conflicts, and stand tall in the face of adversity.

Krav Maga classes for kids (ages 6-12 years old) are a safe and effective way for children to learn the tools they need to identify and handle a variety of scenarios that they may encounter in their daily lives. Our Kids Krav program builds strength and mental resilience while providing the tools and techniques they can use to protect themselves from danger.
As with almost everything in life, starting early in life is the best way to go.
Krav Maga is more than just self-defense—it’s an essential life skill, much like learning how to swim. You may never expect to find yourself in deep water, but knowing how to swim gives you the confidence and ability to survive if it happens. Similarly, Krav Maga prepares you for the unexpected. Whether you’re facing a real threat or simply building resilience, this training equips you with the skills to stay safe and in control. It’s not just about fighting—it’s about navigating life with strength, awareness, and the confidence that you’re ready for whatever comes your way.

FOCUS
Training in Krav Maga will further develop a child’s attention span, self-discipline, and confidence. Our program improves the functionality of their body in aspects of coordination, posture, strength and overall physical fitness. These improvements transcend into the school room and throughout their daily lives.
CHARACTER
Our Krav Maga program is built on repetition of techniques to develop muscle memory. This form of repetition during training strengthens a child’s ability to be persistent in everyday life. Parents report that their kids show decreased levels of stress and anxiety as a result of stimulating physical and mental activity from our Krav Maga classes.
CONTROL
We empower your kids with the ability to calmly rationalize dangerous situations through Krav Maga, such as fights, fires or accidents. Our students learn practical Krav Maga techniques that apply to real-life situations unlike those offered from controlled environments found in sport-based self-defense methodologies.
SUCCESS
With consistent Krav Maga training comes a sense of accomplishment. Our expert Krav Maga instructors teach your child the ability to set and achieve goals which fosters ambition and growth. Teaching Krav Maga to children enables them with improved perseverance and resilience in all aspects of life.
STANDING UP TO BULLIES
Standing up to bullies is about more than just physical defense—it’s about building the mental strength and confidence to assert boundaries, remain calm under pressure, and de-escalate situations before they turn physical. Krav Maga teaches students to identify the signs of bullying early and to use their skills not just to defend themselves, but to protect their emotional well-being, developing resilience that transcends the training mat and into everyday life.
