EVKM Self Defense & Fitness | Krav Maga

EVKM Self Defense & Fitness in Tempe, AZ, is structured around a progressive Krav Maga curriculum designed to build practical self-defense skills and physical confidence from the ground up. The academy offers a clear pathway for advancement, starting with Krav Maga All Levels classes and moving through Level 2/3 and Levels 4+ sessions, including specialized classes such as Ground Skills and Weapons for advanced practitioners. This stepwise approach ensures that students can develop their abilities at a steady pace, with opportunities to focus on striking, clinch work, and realistic scenarios as they progress. Beyond the adult curriculum, EVKM runs dedicated programs for women and families. The Krav Mama program, led by Dr. Sara Ullenbruch-Zarezadeh—a 2nd Degree Black Belt in Krav Maga and Doctor of Physical Therapy—was developed to address the unique self-defense concerns of mothers and women. Young Warriors Krav Maga introduces younger students to age-appropriate self-protection and fitness, making the academy accessible for families looking to train together or for parents seeking practical life skills for their children. EVKM also features a robust schedule of open mat sessions, including women-only sparring and Level 4+ open mats, where students can test and refine their training in a less formal setting. Strikefit Kickboxing classes and express sessions add a fitness-focused striking element to the weekly routine. The academy regularly hosts special seminars on topics like wrestling for self-defense and knife defense, drawing on experienced guest instructors and a practical, real-world approach to personal safety. Drop-ins are welcome, and the flexible schedule makes it easy for both new and experienced students to find training times that fit their needs.
