Women Who’ve Trained with Us, in Their Own Words

The best, most realistic and professional self-defence training I ever had. I have been training with Truekrav for 3 years and I can say that the trainers definitely prepare you for real life situations. It prepares you for all sort of attacks, ranging from a gun to a stick. At Truekrav they welcome you with open arms, they truly care about you and your growth and consider you as part of the Truekrav family from day one. I highly recommend Truekrav to anyone!

True Krav is an exceptional self defense training center centered in Krav Maga. Etienne and the rest of the excellent instructors are practical, experienced, and professional. Regular training has improved my confidence and situational awareness to stay safe as someone who lives in Cape Town and travels frequently. I think practical and realistic self defense training is a basic life skill everyone should have, especially for women’s and girls, which is why I regularly train and have brought my 13 year old daughter to train as well. Plus, you bc any brat the work out!

I highly recommend Truekrav as it is certainly the best self defense training for men and women. I am a 60 year old woman who wishes I had done this 20 years ago! It gives you more confidence to know what to do in all situations, and with the added fitness training, it gives you stamina too. Etienne and his instructors are the absolute best!

Attending TrueKrav classes has been a truly transformative experience for me! The training is highly practical, focusing on real-world self-defense techniques, including escaping grabs and defending against knife attacks. As someone who used to freeze at the thought of potential danger, I’ve learned to stay calm and trust myself to respond effectively under pressure, thanks to their safe and supportive environment.
The instructors are skilled, patient, and encouraging, creating a space where I feel comfortable challenging myself. The friendly and welcoming community makes every session something I genuinely look forward to. On top of that, it’s an amazing workout that has boosted both my fitness and confidence.
For anyone, especially women, looking to feel more capable and secure in their everyday lives, I can’t recommend these classes enough!

"Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow."
...and I just fell in love.
The plan was to do the training for 6 months and it went beyond that until I had to relocate.
Highly highly recommend Truekrav to anyone serious about learning self-defense skills. The course goes beyond just fighting but valuing life and discerning. The instructors, led by Ettienne, are intentional and clear in their teaching, providing a comprehensive learning experience.
The course covers a broad range of scenarios and techniques, and fitness is also emphasised (very vital I tell you). The training environment is safe and controlled, with welcoming and helpful members.
Overall, I felt more prepared and confident in my ability to defend myself after completing the course. Truekrav's emphasis on practical skills and situational awareness makes it an excellent choice for those seeking effective self-defense training.

As a female new to TrueKrav, I couldn't be more impressed with my experience. What truly stands out is their inclusive training approach - everyone trains at the same level regardless of experience, which creates a supportive learning environment.
The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming, with all members and coaches being respectful, patient, and mindful. As a woman, I especially appreciate how safe and comfortable I feel training here.
One of the best aspects is learning from different coaches who each bring their unique teaching methods and perspectives. I love how the lessons are structured and how everything connects together at the end of each session - it really helps reinforce what we've learned.
The training is challenging but approachable, and the community here is truly exceptional. If you're considering Krav Maga training, I highly recommend giving TrueKrav a try. You'll find a professional, respectful, and encouraging environment perfect for all skill levels.
