"The most battle and reality-tested version of Krav Maga in the world today"
- Jason Rahfeldt (US Navy) on Dr. Itay Gil's Protect Krav Maga
The Krav Maga we offer is a self defence system considered by many professionals to be the most pressure-tested version of Krav Maga in the world - informed by Dr. Itay Gil's many years of experience as an elite counter-terrorist and expert in security. It is not a traditional martial art or a sport. It is a life-saving skill, which teaches threat neutralization, tactical maneuvers, and physical/mental empowerment. Originally developed in Eastern Europe around WW2 to teach effective unarmed defence skills against the Nazis, today it is a highly trusted self-defence system taught to many governmental and civilian organisations around the world.
TSKM is led by Chief Instructor Wilson Sze - trained and qualified as Master Instructor under Dr. Itay Gil - he is the NZ Representative for F.I.M.A. the leading global non-political Krav Maga federation. We are certified to provide Krav Maga training to security, law enforcement, military, and civilians alike.
In addition to Krav Maga we also offer Kali (Escrima/Arnis) training, a Filipino Martial Art that has an emphasis on fighting with weapons plus empty-hand techniques, under the guidance of Senior Instruction direct from the famed Inosanto Academy in Los Angeles, California.
