Best Women's Self-defence Classes Phoenix Near Me

4worldlovers:

Welcome to R.E.A.C.T. Defense Systems. We are a family-owned business that brought and established the original Krav Maga Israeli street fighting system in 2001. After spending several years training off-duty law enforcement and first responders, we found a critical gap in the system that required further development, especially regarding ground fighting, weapons defenses, and weapon retention. Thus in 2006, Tactical Black was born.

Our system, Tactical Black, provides solutions to attack scenarios that have occurred in everyday life based on real-life encounters provided by our first responders and our civilian students base.

There are three levels to our system and each level becomes progressively more advanced. With consistent training, most students achieve their Black Level degree within three years and continue to train beyond that.

4worldlovers: I highly recommend Maccabees Krav Maga! When I started taking classes with instructor Steven Comas, I had no background in martial arts or self defense. Instructor Steven Comas does an excellent job of explaining and demonstrating techniques. The classes are interactive and very practical. The instructor is always trying to improve his teaching and organize his classes so that his students get the most benefit out of it. He gives individual feedback when needed so that you can learn the techniques correctly. You will walk out of this class feeling better prepared to fight when you must and escape when you can.

My experience at Maccabees Krav Maga has been nothing but EXTRAORDINARY! Instructor Steven is EXCELLENT at his craft! I've been a student at Maccabees Krav Maga since the inception and I've had nothing but a great experience. Instructor Steven is patient and you can tell he really enjoys teaching the Men, Women and Children and is passionate about making sure every student gets his undivided attention during class, he makes learning Krav Maga FUN... yet he trains you to be able to defend yourself, in any situation. I HIGHLY recommend that if you haven't signed up for membership at Maccabees Krav Maga, that you do so ASAP! Everyday you are not a member of this school, you are jeopardizing your safety and the safety of your loved ones. I'm a member FOR LIFE! You will be too, once you join!


Maccabees Krav Maga wants to be your trusted provider of self-defense and martial arts courses. Our instructors have a passion for fitness, and they're eager to share that passion with students throughout Phoenix and the surrounding areas. We'll help you take charge of your physical fitness by providing you with attainable goals that will challenge your body and mind and offering you the encouragement you need to push yourself to achieve them.

4worldlovers: With the increase of attacks on our hiking trails and walking paths, we have a specialized 2 hour seminar for defending yourself, friends, family and what to do if walking/jogging alone.

At TSF Self Defense Systems we provide the knowledge of a Hybrid Self Defense System that includes Krav Maga, Kali, Silat, Russian Systema, Aikido, Jeet Kune Do and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to our students. Our classes will teach you how to quickly and effectively defend yourself against any threat you may encounter. We believe that everyone should be able to defend themselves regardless of age, gender, height, or fitness level. Our system focuses on the techniques that can save your life while providing a comfortable training environment. While founded in Krav Maga in many of the weapon involved threats and attacks, our system also incorporates techniques from various martial arts to make our students more adaptable. Our head instructor is a 4th-degree black belt in Krav Maga/ Level 4 Instructor Certified and was named North American Krav Maga Instructor of the Year in 2010. Has over 30 years of martial arts experience including Silat, Russian Systema, Wing Chun Self Defense, Kali, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, Aikido, and Sambo. Our assistant instructors are also black belts in not only Krav Maga, but other systems as well providing a full knowledge of the different self defense scenarios. Remember, it is better to know how to defend yourself and never need to rather than need to defend yourself but not know how.


This NOT a fitnessed based system, this is a system that incorporates many styles of Martial Arts to the ever evolving threats and attacks perpetrating our streets and neighborhoods.

“I came across Gracie Phoenix when I was looking for true self defense. I was struggling and skeptical. The support I found, the empowerment I experienced, and the commitment to detailed teaching, is like none other. My journey through the Combatives program impacted me so much, I decided to become an instructor so I could share with others! I am proud to be a part of this community.”


“I have to say this is one of the best places to learn the art of jiu-jitsu the teaching and the knowledge that Adam has is outstanding!! Everyone that attends here is so happy and satisfied with great and positive energy! You will never feel out of place here it’s not a place where you just train and take all your anger out it’s a fun and awesome learning experience! I highly recommend this place you will not be disappointed!”

“My 7-year old son has been going here for about a year now. He has been involved in many youth organizations and I have to say, without a doubt, this is THE most well-run of them all. Coach Adam and his team are dedicated to all of the students, youth and adult. The staff’s commitment, compassion, and care for everyone who walks through the door is evident in everything they do. When a new student is introduced, Coach Adam tells the class what the student’s name is and then asks “How do we treat him/her?” And in unison, the class replies …LIKE FAMILY. Integrity, manners, respect, caring, and good citizenship are concepts the students are rewarded for constantly displaying. My son is an only child so we have him involved in many things. This is, BY FAR, the best thing he does. In closing, my family owes Coach Adam and his amazing staff a huge thank you for the level of effort and commitment they bring to the mat everyday.”

“I was blessed the day I found Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Phoenix. The feeling that came over my body the first time I flipped Adam (instructor) over and I ended up on top was pure joy. I felt accomplished and safe! I was so happy. That day changed my life. And I’ve been on the mat almost every day since then. Learning how to Truly defend myself against an attacker has brought me more happiness than I’ve ever imagined. Something I am forever grateful for. I recommend Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Phoenix to everyone. Men, women and kids can learn so much from this school. My 5 yr old is in the Bullyproof program and loves it! I love it because she’s learning how to defend herself against bullies and strangers (badguys). She knows how to get away. Something every parent should want their kids to know. She’s more aware of her surroundings and she knows what to do in a scary Situation. She’s learning respect, manners, discipline, about health etc. I am so proud of her and all that she’s learned.”
