Kore Self Defense is Northern Virginia’s premier Krav Maga program that has direct lineage to Krav Maga founder Imi Lichtenfeld. Our curriculum is fueled by continuous research in the evolution of conflict and violence in the post-modern world. Unlike other programs, our goals are not based on a systemic martial arts paradigm. We focus instead on what is relevant to our students now – today. We offer a variety of training options, including adult, children’s and women-only programs, with flexible membership structures. Our goal is to help individuals awaken power within themselves with safety, confidence and fitness through effective self-defense skills.
