Fit to Fight® is an unconventional organization, an eccentric family, in a traditional and habitual industry. Fit To Fight the neon orange Crayon, in a box of grays. In a world where "lineage" determines good from bad, and ranking takes precedence over practicality, we place a premium on what works now and strive for better, always.
Our signature program, Defensive Options®, is an attentive and purposeful coalescence of Krav Maga, Muay Thai, wrestling, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, boxing, and athletic performance training, culminating in a self-protection program for those interested in living a better and safer life.
At Krav Oz believe in confronting real violent encounters and evolving our training to always learning new things. We work based on principles not the collection of individual and limited techniques for specific situations. We believe our training should be dynamic because a fight is dynamic. For this reason, we resonate above all with the Fit To Fight mindset of ever growing and ever-evolving in order to be "Fit To Fight"
Finally, At Krav Oz, Our name translates to "The Strength of the Fight" We believe, as Fit To Fight® does that "Everyone is fighting something." We believe in helping you develop your physical strength so you will be better able to access your inner strength for whatever obstacle or fight life throws at you.
The Pekiti Tirsia Tactical Association was founded by Tuhon Jared Wihongi in 2002. The idea of an association dedicated to the tactical application of Pekiti-Tirsia was based on Tuhon Jared’s extensive background as a Police Trainer, SWAT Operator, and an Army Special Forces Combatives Instructor. The original concept of the Pekiti Tirsia Tactical Association was an organization dedicated to training the Tri-V Method of Pekiti-Tirsia Kali with a strict emphasis on Tactical Application. The mission has since grown to encompass “Classical Pekiti-Tirsia” training methodologies in addition to the Tri-V Method.

Last month, I was only going to sign up my 12 year old son but decided to sign up after taking an introductory class. Every class is different and I am learning something new each time. Chantell and Ehren are awesome trainers that push us to do our best. I would definitely recommend Krav Oz LLC to my family and friends!
I took a Women's Self Defense class with Chantell in July and instantly felt a need to continue. A few days later I signed a 12 month contract. I can't believe how far I've come since day one. Chantell and Ehren are amazing instructors. They are so passionate about what they do. Every class is better than the last. I’m constantly talking about my training with my friends and family. I would highly recommend Krav Oz LLC. I don’t know how they do it but I leave every class with a huge smile on my face. Thank you, Chantell and Ehren!
I recently attended Krav Oz's Self Defense seminar in Rockville - and it was fantastic! A comprehensive four hours covering everything I could want, and at just the right speed to keep me and the other attendees challenged and engaged. From start to finish, Chantell and Ehren provided excellent instruction; without sacrificing the skill and passion they possess for their field, Chantell and Ehren created an encouraging and stimulating environment fueled by real life, practical examples in the lecture portion, and helpful analogies to make the defense moves in the self-defense portion hit home (pun intended). In short, this seminar was one from which all could benefit - whether you've never heard of Krav Maga, or have spent years on the mats. Can't wait to come check out a class!
