Success Stories
A huge number of people across the world resolve to improve their health and fitness. For some this means losing weight, for others it’s gaining muscle, and for some people, it’s more about working on developing a healthy mindset. Transforming your physique, health, and lifestyle doesn’t happen overnight.

I started Krav Maga to learn self-defence.
As a single mother, I wanted to know that I could protect my family if I had to. What I found at SGS Krav Maga was far more than a system of self-defence.
The fitness benefits are a bonus (I’ve never been stronger!) Steve’s deep knowledge of and passion for Krav Maga means that, through him, I learned a way of thinking about my environment, how to assess risk, how to compensate for my weaknesses and utilize my strengths, how to de-escalate conflict… and when an attack is my best defence. His teaching isn’t linear because life isn’t linear: you’ll learn what you need to know not what the “colour of your belt” says you’re ready for. But more than the mindset and skillset, SGS gave me a community.
I’ve learned as much from Steve and the instructors (who are, hands down, the best in the country) as I have learned from my partners and my peers. Join SGS Krav Maga. I can near guarantee that you’ll be fitter, more confident, laugh a whole lot, and learn to access and control an inner strength you may not have known was in you.

At SGS Krav Maga in Sydney, self-defence training isn’t just about punches, drills, and sweat. It’s about mindset, identity, consistency, and growth.

Sorry not sorry. Bodybuilding is not self-defence. Confusing the two can get you hurt. Let’s say it loud for the guys flexing in the mirror right now: Having a big chest, 20-inch arms, and visible abs does NOT make you good at self-defence.In fact, it can sometimes make things worse....
In a world where confrontations arise unexpectedly, many people cling to hope that staying passive will decrease aggression. They think: “If I just stay calm and don’t fight back, the threat will pass.” “Maybe if I just don’t hit him and I just stay here nicely, he won’t hit me.”...
