Krav Maga East Midlands IKMF

Top team training, last night. Working the fundamentals of multiple assailant dynamics

Part II of The Krav-Kettlebell Connection is a wrap.

Huge respect to everyone who showed up ready to level up their Mobility & Conditioning. We took the foundation from Part I and unlocked the advanced protocols built for deep combat resilience.

Here’s a snapshot of what this crew demolished:

The Turkish Get-Up: The ultimate full-body movement flow to forge unbreakable shoulder stability, deep hip mobility, and seamless ground-to-standing transitions.

Simple & Sinister: Applied the legendary minimalist StrongFirst standard to prove how consistent practice with heavy volume builds armor-plated durability without tearing you down.

Quick and the Dead & AXE: Mastered a couple of advanced anti-glycolytic protocols (Q&D and AXE) to train maximum speed, acceleration, and explosive power output while conditioning your aerobic engine to flush fatigue on the fly.

Massive credit to everyone for solid focus, sharp movement and control through some intense applied practice.

You now have the full blueprint: the explosive engine, the structural shield, and the dynamic mobility to move, hit, and recover under pressure. Keep practicing the movements and bringing that high standard back to the cave!

Last week we completed the Stay Away Course, our premier Self Defense programme for Women. An action packed 8 weeks of learning the basics and applying simple and effective techniques to help Stay Safe and manage a range of threatening situations. Great effort and attitude by this group - who I know now feel safer and more confident than when they started.

Don’t miss your chance to be part of our next course, running in West Bridgford (starts October 5th 2027) and take control of your safety. Early Bird offer available until end of August.

Big shout-out to those who turned up on Sunday, for the Krav-Kettlebell Connection, part of our Summer Series -- after the England late night finisher, weary start but we finished Strong!

Here’s a snapshot of what this crew demolished:
• The Power Formula: We busted the "body mass illusion" and proved that punching power starts from the ground up. (Hip drive = 31% of your straight punch power!).
• Kime & Tension: Mastered the Soviet Special Ops "Hard Style" concepts to build a bulletproof shield and pack some serious armour onto our shoulders.
• The Alactic Finisher: Blew through a high-intensity, combat-conditioned EMOM designed to train explosive, violent power—not just metabolic exhaustion.

Massive thanks to everyone for the solid focus, the sharp partner structure checks, and for keeping safety absolute. You didn't just workout; you practiced.

What’s next? Sunday we built your explosive engine and structural shield.

In Part II (16th August), we’re unlocking the rest of the movement poster—diving into advanced programming, deep mobility work, and the legendary Turkish Get-Up.

The Krav Maga Women's only course got started last night. This course is based on the Stay Away format, plenty of energy and enthusiasm was on display as we started the journey to build confidence, capability and some solid skills in self defence for this group based in Nottingham.

A typical night at Krav Maga Nottingham. Stop training for the ring and start preparing for the street. This session was a high intensity dive into the reality of violence.

Moving from ballistic boxing entries to the chaos of multiple attackers, bladed threats, and tactical ground recovery.

Boxing Fundamentals class today.
One of our timetabled sessions that supports Krav Maga development
