Krav Maga  near Germantown

Carissa Chantiles

Carissa is a lifelong athlete who loves to learn new things. She’s always looking for a challenge and started krav maga as a fun way to combine sports with learning practical skills and achieving personal growth. Several years after taking her first class at Krav Oz, she joined the instructor team. She currently holds certifications as a Fit to Fight Defensive Options Level 1 instructor, Krav Oz certified fitness instructor, and Knight Jiu Jitsu level 1 instructor.

Aside from time at Krav Oz and her day job in emergency management, Carissa is a big nature nerd and loves to trail run, garden, forage, and just generally be outside. Originally from Maryland, she lived around the world for many years before returning to Montgomery County with her wife, dog, cat, and 2,000 worms.

Carissa believes in Krav Oz’s philosophy of “growth through discomfort” and has found this to be true in her own experience as a student. As an instructor, Carissa’s goal is to help folks embrace discomfort, harness inner strength, and have a bunch of fun along the way.
