Our Little Defenders programme is our Kids Krav Maga class for children aged 4–7.
Classes focus on helping young children build confidence, listening skills and basic personal safety through games, simple drills and clear structure. Training is calm, supportive and designed to help children feel comfortable and included from day one.
This isn’t about fighting or aggression.
It’s about helping children understand their space, follow instructions and feel safe and capable in everyday situations.
No previous experience is needed.
At this age, progress is about habits, confidence and awareness rather than techniques.
In Little Defenders, children work on:
Skills are taught through games, simple drills and age-appropriate scenarios that children can understand and enjoy.
Young children thrive when classes are predictable and calm.
Every Little Defenders class follows a clear structure:
This structure helps children stay focused, engaged and comfortable throughout the session.
Safety and behaviour management are built into every class.
Our aim is to create an environment where children feel safe, supported and confident.
Every child develops differently, and that’s expected.
Little Defenders uses a belt and stripe system to give children:
Progress is based on effort, understanding and behaviour, not comparison with others.
There’s no pressure and no rushing.
At the start of each term, we open a limited trial window. During this time, children can attend a trial class before committing to the full term.
Trials are available for three weeks only at the beginning of the term.
After the trial window closes, classes continue as a closed group for the rest of the term to support consistency, confidence and progression.
If trials are not currently open:
Parents often prefer this, as it gives time to prepare children and choose the right moment to start.
Parents often tell us they notice:
Most importantly, children enjoy coming to class and feel proud of themselves.
If trials are currently open, you’ll be able to book directly.
If not, you can join the waiting list and we’ll let you know when the next intake opens.
