Haganah Total Self-Defense Programs

The name HaganaH does not only represent the power and uniqueness of the fierce Israeli system, it signifies what our school is all about; Integrating together in a very unique way the world’s most effective Martial Arts styles into a “Total Self-Defense” hybrid system. We link together the effective elements of self-defense, striking and grappling; Integrating the energy of the workouts values with the character, discipline and confidence building values into a Total package of success.

Haganah offers two programs for youth:

HaganaH Kids for ages 6 yrs old to 10 yrs old...

...and Teen HaganaH for ages 11 yrs old and up 

In the past the study of the Martial Arts was considered synonymous with soccer, baseball, horseback riding and other similar after school activities. Today, it is widely recognized by many educational experts to be far more than just extra curricular activity... it is a physical training program that empowers children with powerful techniques and strategies that strengthen them from the inside-out for lifelong achievements!

Real Self-Defense

In a real life self-defense situation, there are no rules, no referees and no time limit. Unlike Tae Kwon Do and other generic Martial Arts, we offer a simple curriculum to kids that has been rigidly tested and proven to effectively address the realities of a real physical confrontation. The techniques are street-smart, easy to learn and almost impossible to forget, rather than astound our students with gymnastic like and spectacular techniques that have little or no real applications, we concentrate on techniques that are simple gross motor skill and have developed a training curriculum that instills muscle memory so the techniques learned will keep the children safe in the face of danger.
