about elite krav maga

Elite Krav Maga is not a "martial arts" school. We are NOT a fight club.  We are NOT an MMA gym. 

We specialize in personal protection and fitness.  Our members - men, women, and children - come to us to learn practical self-defense.

Our approach to street violence is straightforward.  There's nothing fancy in what we teach.  And it doesn't take many years to learn. 

Our training environment allows students to have fun while they learn.

Here you will find all the equipment - heavy bags, kicking shields, kettlebells, battle ropes, etc. - you will need to develop

the skills, fitness, and conditioning needed to survive an attempted assault or attack. 

Krav Maga (k'ráv-magá)  is Hebrew for close combat and is a self-defense and fighting system developed 

for the Israel Defense Forces and Israeli security forces derived from a combination of techniques 

sourced from Boxing, Wrestling, Judo, Jiu Jitsu, and Karate. 

Krav Maga is known for its focus on real-world situations and its extreme efficiency.

Donald has been studying and teaching Krav Maga since 2003.  He was heavily into the martial arts as a teen and later a young man.  He soon discovered his real passion in Krav.  

He has trained with experts from across the country and always feels there is more to learn.  When he's not on the mats he loves to travel, photography and hockey.  GO BOLTS!

Mr. Medina - affectionately called "Coach" - has been training in Krav Maga for over a decade.

Teaching students the most practical and realistic self-defense skills pushes Mr. Medina to continually learn and improve the Elite Krav Maga curricula.
