At DeStolfo’s Premier Martial Arts and Karate, our Krav Maga program offers a COMPLETE KRAV MAGA STREET SMART TRAINING SYSTEM that focuses on your ability to realistically defend yourself from any possible criminal attack regardless of the size or strength of you or your attacker. This tactical and practical knowledge allows anyone to defend himself or herself against a much larger or stronger attacker!

Most of us live or work, in or near a big city and possess a fear of being attacked in one way or another. Let's face it - Real Life Street Attack Situations come at you fast and ferocious - Krav Maga was specifically created by and for the Elite Israeli Defense Force - an infamous group of soldiers who are constantly putting these strategic techniques to the test and commiting their lives to the tactical advantage Krav Maga arms them with. Wouldn't you like to have that Exact Same Dominance for yourself as well as your family?

"Krav maga teaches functional self defense techniques that are beneficial to practitioners at all levels. Learning krav will give you more confidence everywhere you go. No longer will you feel intimidated walking through that dark corner of the city or in a rowdy, city bar. It teaches you to make smart decisions and to always be aware of your surroundings. It is also a great way to get in shape while having fun.

Additionally, I have taken classes at a variety of locations and Rinaldo is one of the best teachers I have ever met." - Brian

Here's what one of our students has to say...

"Before arriving at Destolfo's I had 2 years prior experience in another discipline which up until that point had been the only training I'd received. I had truly applied myself but after 24 months I couldn't shake the feeling of still being quite unprepared in the event of a true self defensive situation. I left that school in search of something more intense, challenging, consistent, and most importantly effective. I had researched Israeli Krav Maga for months and finally settled on Destolfo's Premier Martial Arts as the place to make it happen."

"I was introduced to the instructor(s) and took to the curriculum right away. Much of what I "knew" was modified, reshaped, and refined to suit the IKMA (Israeli Krav Maga Association) standards. Basic techniques are drilled into you until it is second nature. Stand up striking, grappling, gun and knife defense, and even scenario training. No stone is left unturned. Within 3 months I felt more confident in my abilities than I had in my prior two years of training! If you are looking for more than just the regular length class there are plenty of areas to expand. Sign up for the Cage Fitness, the MMA class and learn ground and submission basics, or stay for the fight class and free spar with others who are training. Everyone is friendly, helpful, and will work to your skill level even if you have only one days worth of experience. All egos are checked at the door. I highly endorse the abilities of Krav Maga instructor Rinaldo Rossi and the entire Destolfo's team." -Bob H
