Krav Maga Instruction

Nigel McEathron offers private/group instruction and collaboration in his private workout area.  Its’ purpose is to bring people together who are interested in learning Krav Maga and the advancement of Krav Maga locally.  Nigel’s goal is to build the Krav Maga community by bringing people together to practice and study this system of self-defence.

 The purpose of this program is for students to learn how to determine if there is a threat, the severity of the threat, and how to defend oneself quickly and get out of danger.  Practitioners will learn defences for the most common attacks from unarmed and armed assailants.  All instruction will be adapted based on the flexibility and fitness level of the individual student.  

Classes will include a warm-up, stretching, circuit training, blocks, combative, techniques, ground defence, weapon defence, and review.  Your health and safety are the top priority.  Students may train individually or with a partner. At the end of the program, students should expect to see improved fitness and a greater understanding of personal safety.  Everyone is welcome regardless of age, fitness level, and experience!

 Students should be prepared for each class with a groin cup, water bottle, and towel.  All students should wear a clean T-shirt, clean shorts or sweats, and clean indoor shoes.  Boxing gloves and or MMA gloves, headgear, and a mouth guard are also good to have but not required.

Testimonials

We invited Nigel into our FMA class to showcase Krav Maga concepts. Our students appreciate cross-training and the benefits of the application of differing methodologies. It was insightful, applicable, confidence-boosting and our students enjoyed it greatly.

Krav Maga is a great concept as it not only trains in practical techniques but those techniques are similar to ones already within other systems or they fit seamlessly within those systems.

Nigel creates an energetic experience that is also very practical within a street context. He is very passionate and knowledgable and I recommend both Krav Maga as a solid foundation and Nigel as an excellent instructor.

Learning Krav Maga with Instructor Nigel has been a transformative experience over the last year for me.

Not only do I feel like I’d be 100% more capable of handling myself in a worst-case self defense situation now, but it has also been a great excuse to keep active and boost my self confidence overall as a person.

Instructor Nigel rigorously stress tests every concept and move incorporated into his curriculum to ensure that nothing we are taught is fruitless, and that his students are well versed in the basics before moving on to more advanced concepts.

Beyond learning the actual defenses and attacks we are also instructed in the theory of Krav Maga, and specifically how it may apply to real life, and a real worst-case scenario.

For anyone in the Calgary area looking for a serious self defense course that doesn’t cut corners, and focusses on practical, effective techniques informed by Krav Maga I would highly recommend Nigel’s Krav course.
