America's Best Krav Maga- Ventura

Students and enthusiasts of Krav Maga have many reasons for their interest in this and other martial art styles. Some are drawn to the physical fitness and weight-loss aspects of training. Others seek to add discipline and self-control to their lives. While still others are concerned about safety and self-defense. Whether you are interested in our programs for mental or physical well-being, America’s Best Krav Maga offers a number of programs that will fit your developmental needs and your busy schedule as well.

Burbank
Krav Maga

Our community atmosphere sets us apart from other schools in that we insist on leaving ego at the door. BKM strives to teach effective self defense methods that are quick to learn. While exercise and physical activity are important aspects of Krav Maga and are very frequently incorporated in our classes, BKM’s curriculum heavily emphasizes “getting home safe” by any means necessary and in spite of various conditions.

Citadel
Krav Maga

Citadel Krav Maga is an authorized American Krav Maga Federation (AKMF) school. We have both an Adults Program and a Kids Program. Citadel Krav Maga is run by it’s Chief Instructor, John Veverka, who holds a 2nd Degree under the AKMF.

What students say

Citadel is an awesome place to train. From beginner to advanced, kids to adults, Mr. V and his instructors are excellent. The amount of knowledge and insight shared is beyond anything I expected. Not only will you learn how to defend yourself and the people you love. You will also learn about the warrior mindset. I know it can be a little intense walking into an unfamiliar place with people you have never met, but Citadel makes you feel welcomed right away. See you there. Let's work.

Citadel Krav Maga really sets the standard when it comes to self defense. Mr. Veverka is an amazing instructor, knows what he is talking about, and practices what he preaches. I have been training under him for nearly 3 years now and learn something new every class!

My Jiu Jitsu class was unexpectedly canceled and I was just walking by, saw sparring and stopped to watch. I was invited inside and was able to participate. Very friendly and welcoming providing a wide variety of skills to learn from basic to advanced.

Mr. John Veverka is one of the most remarkable people I could have known in my life, I knew him since 2016 when I started Krav Maga, he changed my life all around. He was not just a trainer, he was a friend, brother, and a mentor. We trained together for years and will keep training for many more. For anyone looking for the place that will definitely change your life, keep you safe, and confident look no where else.

I’ve been training at citadel for about 4 months now and I love it there so much! Mr. V (the instructor) is such a good teacher and I couldn’t say enough good things. The curriculum and schedule there gives you the opportunity to test for higher belts quickly (if that’s what you’re looking for) but also the self defense techniques they teach here are so practical and efficient. Mr V and the students here have quickly become my family and everyone is so welcoming. It is a great place to train and everyone should check it out!

My teenager has been training here for almost a year and has not only learned a lot, but also increased his confidence, physicality, and his self-defense IQ learning some real world applicable skills. As a father, I was very intentional about choosing a self-defense form that would actually be useful and challenge my teenager both mentally and physically. I appreciate the Head Instructor for all he is doing. I would highly recommend this training center.

Cutting Edge
Krav Maga

Cutting Edge Karate has been offering instruction and training in martial arts in the Woodland Hills and West Hills area since 2003. Headed by Master Brandon Kemmer and a staff of expert instructors and managers, Cutting Edge Karate offers a number of programs for physical fitness and instruction in American Tang Soo Do and Krav Maga.

What students say

Being 32 years old, with a chaotic work life, I'd been a little hesitant at first to take up karate. For months, despite having a keen interest in martial arts, I felt a little hesitant to enroll. At first I thought it would be grueling experience, but seeing how patient and encouraging Mr. Kemmer was, and how inviting the other students were, I felt totally at ease. Every student in the adult class is at a different skill level, but there is no conflict, no judgements and no animosity of any kind. There's a kind of family atmosphere at Cutting Edge & that's awesome! Though I've nearly just begun, all I can say, is that my experience has been nothing short of stellar and amazing! I can't wait to see where my karate journey takes me.

I joined cutting edge approximately 4 to 5 months ago. I couldn’t be more pleased. Mr. Kemmer is a great instructor he is very knowledgeable and patient I’ve seen all ages enjoying this class. I would recommend the school to everyone. I look forward to all my classes!

No doubt Cutting Edge was the perfect choice for us. Mr. Kemmer is is a wonderful instructor, in teaching these very important life lessons, from how to protect yourself, having confidence, being disciplined and respectful of others.

Moorpark
Krav Maga

We are dedicated to providing our members the best value and competency in practical self-defense learning, with instruction certified by the American Krav Maga Federation. Our experienced staff and instructors are always friendly and fun to train with…but also always take their job of teaching lifesaving, self-defense seriously.

What students say

I know there are choices for martial arts classes in and around the area of Moorpark. I haven't done anything like this in a long time, but I know I made the right choice with Moorpark Karate and Krav Maga. I was very nervous to try something new, but when I inquired about their programs, I was contacted promptly by the owner himself with great kindness and information about exactly what they do, and immediately had a good feeling about about it. They gave me the opportunity to come down and try it out for free, and I not only was challenged, but had fun. Several classes later, I continue to feel welcomed, and cared about by a great patient and caring staff as well as the community of people that they have brought together. Master Flame and his staff truly care about each and every individuals growth in martial arts, physical fitness, confidence and discipline. I see how they treat everyone of all ages and feel like if anyone wants to try something new like this, this is the place you want to do it. Thank you to Master Flame and his wonderful staff.

Highly recommend Moorpark Karate & Krav Maga. My son had been training there for about a year and a half. All of the instructors are so great with the kids, and he has grown so much and made so many new friends since starting! Very happy to have found this school!

I did Kung Fu for a few years, but naturally stopped when the pandemic hit. After a two year hiatus, I figured it was time to get back into martial arts. So I decided to switch it up and try Krav Maga. So far, so good. The self-defense is very practical and you definitely get a decent workout in too. Both the instructors and students alike have been welcoming and patient as I'm getting up to speed on the drills. Overall it's a nice atmosphere that you want to be in. As a martial artist I am somewhat selective on where I train, and I'm glad I picked this school as my next stop. Can't wait to see how far I'll go here

Georgia

Pooler Karate has been an amazing environment for me the past year and a half. Everyone there is very encouraging pushes you to be better than you thought you could be, especially on testing days. Thanks so much Chappy!

This is such an awesome place to train yourself and your family members. Even after a tiring day at work I look forward to my Krav Maga class. This is like 2nd home to us. My girls love spending time here. As a husband and father of 2 daughters I believe that we have made a valuable choice toward our future. Wishing Health, love, peace and prosperity to all our instructors and Pooler karate family for creating this wonderful place for our community.

I am learning how to walk with confidence and am gaining the ability to defend myself and family when the unexpected happens. 100% recommend Pooler Karate and Krav Maga for thier encouragement, tough love and high expectations. If you've ever thought you might want to try it ... this is your class. "Krav Maga, So that one may walk in peace" - Imi Lichtenfield

Carson is an amazing seasoned instructor who is passionate about his craft! His ability to teach is not only expressed in patience with technique, but also his ability to push you with channeled aggression! Every move is a power move designed to finish your opponent! Highly recommend!!!!!!

Puerto Cortés, Cortés, Honduras

Undertow
Krav Maga

Our gym has the unique distinction of being the only one of the AKMF located outside the US. We are in Puerto Cortes on the north Caribbean shore of Honduras. The absolute beauty of the sea is in stark contrast to some of the worst that people have to offer. Gang violence, assaults, murders, and brutal poverty permeate this place. In the middle of all this is Undertow Krav Maga.

We started with the dual purpose of being an oasis of healthy connection and community combined with solid training to give our people the capacity to live in security and the capacity to defend themselves and their communities from violence and social rot. Because of this, we are a rapidly growing gym and the only one of its kind in the northern part of Honduras.

Although currently dedicated to Krav Maga; the desire is to be a location that will provide training in a variety of martial arts, connecting with a multitude of people throughout our region.

Virginia

Our community atmosphere sets us apart in that we insist on leaving ego at the door. Our promise is that everyone learns and improves regardless of age, gender, build, level of fitness, athleticism or experience.
