Truekrav

Truekrav Truekrav provides true Self-Defence and Tactical Training. Our objective is to teach you how to react and survive in a true combat situation, full-stop !!!

We are not a dojo, martial arts or lifestyle centre. We are a combat training facility. Training will be tough, uncompromising and exhausting and physical and mental breakdowns do occur. We require that our students adapt to our mentality of combat and this leads to Truekrav being private but certainly not closed.

At Truekrav we focus on one thing and one thing only : CAPABILITY WHEN IT MATTERS MOST !

The truth is that most fathers are incapable to protect their families against violence, and most mothers can’t protect their children.

Truekrav’s mission is to deliver that capability in a way that others can’t match.

While most self-defence schools teach women how to protect their handbags. We teach women to protect themselves and their children when their lives are at stake.

And while most self-defence schools teach men how to fight out on a night with the boys, we teach men how to fight back in home invasions when they are the only barrier between violent criminals and their families.

Different missions, different standards, simple !

Tactical Training without proper hand to hand training, is like bolting a machine gun to a shopping trolley : Looks tactical. Falls apart the second it’s pushed.

The Truekrav Combat Club is not for shopping trolleys 👍

Why we are not cheap !

We are far from being the cheapest self-defence option in Cape Town.

Shocking, I know.

But here’s the thing :
Cheap training is like a cheap parachute.
It’s absolutely fine… right up until it isn’t.

You’re not paying for a sweat session.
You’re paying for standards.
And Truekrav’s standards are unmatched when it comes to self-defence.

If price is your main concern, there are options.
But if you want something that works when it matters, there’s Truekrav.

NOT FOR EVERYONE

Let’s be clear.
If you want coloured belts, and a participation trophy…
We are absolutely the wrong place.
If, however, you’d quite like to know what to do when a criminal pulls a knife on you while hiking, or what to do in a home invasion…
Now we’re talking.
Truekrav is structured, professional self-defence training for adults who understand the realities of living in South Africa.

Free trial available.

Comment “TRIAL” and we’ll send you the booking link.

“The guy at Truekrav trains civilians like soldiers and it is not necessary to have that approach”

Heard that before from your “Krav Maga” instructor in Cape Town ?

This woman, probably disproves the notion that civilians should not train like soldiers 👍

It also proves that self-defence in reality is about a lot more than just hand to hand.

Also note that there was no time for fancy shooting stances, or using the sites on the gun.

Well done to her.

Also, what she does after shooting is truly exceptional.

And this proves that I am not crazy for teaching my members, what I taught them in class 2 Mondays ago.

Because you are NOT training self-defence if you do not train in the FULL-SPECTRUM.
