UKMA Krav Maga does not make any claims that our techniques are used by any military organisation. We approach all situations from a civilian's perspective, seeking solutions to "common" self defence scenarios.

UKMA Krav Maga had previously been afiliated with Commando Krav Maga, since January 2010 we decided that we would be able to offer a more flexible and cost effective training opportunity to our students by forming an independant group of clubs.
UKMA Krav Maga training offers a student reality based self defence skills which takes the very best techniques from every martial art and CQB system available and which is why we have retained the term Krav Maga as we feel that this title sums up our approach best.
