Krav Maga Illinois would like to thank all of our cherished students for support during the 2020 Covid 19 pandemic. It has been a long few months, but thanks to you, our amazing members, we have made it through. Our schedule is modified during this time, as we navigate our way through all of the changes and safety requirements. We are trying our best to get back on track and we truly appreciate your patience. There will always be a need for self defense training, as violence will never go away. Along with that, there is a need for relief from the stresses of a world that is changing, a need to escape the frustrations of the day, to clear your head. Krav Maga Illinois is there for you to destress, re-energize, feel strong again. We have the tools you need both mentally and physically to handle ever changing situations. Welcome back my friends, we are excited to continue our Krav Maga Journey!!!
