Direct Contact Krav Maga - Thomastown is a self-defence school located in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. As an International Krav Maga Federation (IKMF) training establishment, they offer a range of classes, personal training sessions, and group workshops for individuals of all ages, sizes, and physical conditions.
Krav Maga, the most effective self-defence system available today, is the cornerstone of their training programmes. It is a practical and easily learned system that focuses on quickly implementing self-defence techniques for personal protection and the safety of loved ones. Originally developed by Imi Lichtenfeld for the Israeli IDF soldiers in the 1950s, Krav Maga has evolved over the years to provide self-defence solutions for civilians.
Direct Contact Krav Maga emphasises four key points in their training programmes. Firstly, they prioritise awareness, avoidance, and de-escalation, teaching individuals to stay out of danger whenever possible. However, when a situation turns sour, their training emphasises neutralising and disabling threats quickly and effectively before safely getting away. Secondly, their training is designed for “one-against-many” scenarios, ensuring individuals are prepared for any situation they may face.
Another crucial aspect is that Krav Maga caters to all body types, physical conditions, and abilities. It is easy to learn and highly effective, making it accessible to everyone. Lastly, their training utilises the body's natural reactions and trains them into efficient defensive mechanisms, providing individuals with a strong sense of safety and confidence.
Lead by Aaron Davis, a highly skilled instructor with a background in various martial arts, the Direct Contact Krav Maga team is dedicated to helping individuals feel safe in their surroundings. Aaron has completed the IKMF CIC and Women's Instructor Course (WIC), and also served as a Veteran in the Army with active service in Timor, Iraq, and Afghanistan. His exposure to various threats during his deployment inspired his belief that everyone should have the opportunity to feel safe, which Krav Maga can provide.
