What is Krav Maga and how is it different from other martial arts?

Krav Maga is the official self-defense system of the Israeli Defense Forces, designed for real-world survival rather than sport competition. Unlike traditional martial arts focused on forms, kata, or point-sparring, Krav Maga emphasizes practical defense against common street attacks including chokes, grabs, weapons, multiple attackers, and ground fighting. Training includes psychological preparation, threat awareness, and aggressive counterattack strategies. No uniforms, belts, or ceremonial rituals - only functional techniques that work under stress for people of all fitness levels.

Who can learn Krav Maga? Do I need to be fit or have martial arts experience?

Krav Maga is designed for everyone regardless of age, gender, size, or fitness level. You do not need prior martial arts experience or exceptional physical conditioning. The system is built on natural, instinctive movements that your body already knows. We have separate training programs for adults (18+ years), teens (13-17 years), and children (6-12 years). Fitness improves naturally through training - you don't need to be fit to start, you train to become fit.

Where are your training locations in Bengaluru?

We have two training locations in Bengaluru: Wilson Garden (7th Cross) for morning and afternoon weekend classes (10 AM to 12 PM), and Kengeri Satellite Town for afternoon classes (2:30 PM to 3:30 PM). Both locations offer weekend training sessions with professional equipment including punch shields, protective gear, and training weapons.

What is the class schedule and timing?

Regular weekend classes run on Saturdays and Sundays. Wilson Garden location: 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Kengeri location: 2:30 PM to 3:30 PM. We also offer Private Short Diploma Masterclasses on weekdays by appointment for busy professionals who cannot commit to regular weekend schedules. Corporate workshops are customizable and scheduled based on client requirements.

Do you offer corporate training programs?

Yes, we provide specialized corporate self-defense workshops including our flagship Power To Women Safety Empowerment program and CSR iTeachiPower Girls Train Girls initiatives. We have delivered workshops to 400+ companies including Google, Amazon, TATA, Wipro, Infosys, Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, NASSCOM, Israeli Consulate, DRDO, HAL, and Indian Railways. Programs can be customized for 2-6 hour sessions focusing on women's safety, psychological empowerment, and practical self-defense techniques.

What is the training methodology used in classes?

Our training methodology combines Individual Drills (repeated tactical movements to build muscle memory), Partner Drills (realistic scenario-based practice with training partners), Group Drills (team-based exercises fostering collective awareness), and Psychological Sessions (deep-dive discussions on crime psychology with mandatory note-taking). This experiential approach ensures participants experience, practice, and internalize safety skills rather than just hearing about them.

What should I wear for training?

Wear comfortable workout clothes suitable for physical activity. For participants practicing ground techniques, trousers or leggings are recommended (not mandatory). Regular athletic shoes are suitable. No special uniforms or gear required. The training environment is casual and focused on practical learning rather than traditional martial arts formality.

Is Krav Maga suitable for women?

Absolutely. Krav Maga is highly effective for women as it focuses on practical, instinct-based techniques rather than strength or size advantages. The system was specifically designed to work for smaller, weaker defenders against larger, stronger attackers. Our Power To Women workshops are specifically designed for women's safety empowerment, combining physical techniques with psychological confidence-building, boundary-setting, and threat awareness strategies.

What makes Franklin Joseph's training different from other Krav Maga schools?

Franklin Joseph brings 20+ years of experience training military (NSG Black Cat Commandos), law enforcement (IPS, IAS, IRS officers at SVPNPA Hyderabad), and corporate professionals. His unique integration of Combat Tactical Science, Crime Psychology, Threat Intelligence Analysis, and Psychological Empowerment goes beyond physical techniques to develop complete personal security awareness.

We recommend attending one trial session to experience the training methodology, meet the instructor, and understand the curriculum before committing to regular classes. Trial classes are available at both Wilson Garden and Kengeri locations on weekends.

What is the iTeachiPower CSR program?

iTeachiPower is a revolutionary CSR initiative where Girls Empower, Mentor, Lead, and Train other Girls in self-defense and safety awareness. The 3-day program for schools and colleges creates girl safety ambassadors through age-appropriate Krav Maga training combined with psychological empowerment education. Students learn practical defense tactics, boundary-setting skills, threat recognition, bystander intervention, anti-bullying strategies, and cyber safety awareness. The program aims to create sustainable safety ecosystems within educational institutions by training selected girls to become certified instructors who can mentor their peers.
