A strong sense of community exists in all of the classes. Class participants help their classmates excel..."Iron sharpens Iron." New students will be welcomed into an environment of de-stressed learning.

The Self Defense HaganaH program provides the world's only complete self-defense system with realistic, practical solutions for worst-case scenario attacks/threats. Just about anyone can do it, regardless of strength, size, or physical fitness. You'll get in great shape, have an absolute blast and get the same kind of confidence as the professionals. The confidence that comes from knowing you can handle whatever situation you might encounter.

When you’re defending yourself, you don’t need to use elaborate moves or patterns. In reality, two or three simple punches or kicks will usually be enough to keep your opponent away. The key is to calculate your self-defense moves in advance, and make sure they count. For example, going for the groin, throat, or nose is always a powerful defense choice. Join our Haganah team to learn these life saving maneuvers.
